A thread on #LabourAntisemitism: We now see @UKLabour ‘moderate’ MPs who formerly opposed @jeremycorbyn’s leadership, led by former front-benchers such as @hilarybennmp and @YvetteCooperMP fighting to prevent a ‘No-deal’ #Brexit. 1
We see that on an issue where they hold principled views, they will explore all avenues: defying party policy; working across party lines; exploiting parliamentary loopholes and even defying constitutional conventions. They have demonstrated great resourcefulness 2
Yet after Corbyn’s 2nd leadership victory they folded like a house of cards and fell in line, knowing his politics was antisemitic, allowing their avowed ‘anti-racist’ party to become institutionally antisemitic, as they knew it would. 3
Similar parliamentary tricks and political manoevres were and are available to them. Yet history now records that for Labour politicians, the oldest hatred was, and continues to be tolerable, even as their own officers spout what was once Nazi propaganda 4
As #HMD approaches, and we see them line up, solemn faced, to sign on the line reading “Never again”, the rotten stench of their hypocrisy makes us choke.
