.@JeremyCorbyn’s support for Palestinian rights is an aberration: Historically, @UKLabour has been a massive supporter and enabler of Israeli racism, occupation and war crimes. Anti-Semitism smears aim to keep it that way.

Remember too that the British government that handed Palestine over to the Zionist movement so that it could expel the Palestinians was the @UKLabour government of Clement Atlee. And Labour support for Zionism remained staunch down to the fanatically pro-Israel Tony Blair.
Far from being "pro-Palestinian," @UKLabour, as a party, has yet to reckon with its historic and ongoing complicity in the dispossession and other crimes perpetrated by Israel on the Palestinian people. It's accurate to say that Labour is institutionally anti-Palestinian.
A modest start for @UKLabour to address its institutional anti-Palestinianism would be to support reparations for British crimes against the Palestinian people. I urge @OwenJones84 to support investigation of Labour's anti-Palestinianism and to expel anti-Palestinian racists.
Labour's historic anti-Palestinian racism and Zionism resulted in massive death and destruction for Palestinians and the theft of their land. How many lives were lost as a result of the party's alleged anti-Semitism? We must oppose ALL racism, not just against some.
