THREAD: The kitchen sink is long gone, they're throwin the bricks & morter now.

So TWatson & 90 'Parliamentarians' (they've had to beef the list up w/ 30 unelected Lords) have got the band back together for another pop at ruining their own party's chances of election. 1/
The number of MPs willing to go along with the more outlandish attempts at subterfuge has plummeted. Down from 171 in the chicken coup to just 60. And they don't even have the confidence to launch a no confidence vote, they're reduced to angry letters. It is beyond pathetic. 2/
I was personally relieved to see that my MP, @Vernon_Coaker had not put his name to this insanity, but the list provides us with a handy guide of exactly which MPs require urgent deselection using the new reduced threshold for trigger ballots. 3/
These 60 MPs are the anti Corbyn ultras. They're the ones most likely to do all they can to stifle a Labour gov. If your MP is listed, then your mission is simple - have your branch pass the necessary motion to trigger a selection contest. 4/ skwawkbox.org/2019/05/31/exc…
The correlation here is a determination to undermine the leadership. Nobody signed this list because they genuinely believe @DerbyChrisW is racist. Not a single one of them has cited any evidence of racist behaviour. Because there is none. He is a life long anti racist. 5/
The single quote they claim is enough to throw him out, enough to publicly tar the party & leadership right b4 a probable snap GE, is that he said the party had been 'too apologetic'. They of course never acknowledge the rest of the speech those 2 words were part of. 6/
Chris was talking about how Labour has done more than any other party to address antisemitism & that there is demonstrably less of it within Labour than in other parties, so it's not fair that Corbyn is constantly brow beaten on the issue. 7/
Antisemitism is demonstrably bein used as a political weapon to delegitimise an anti apartheid potential PM. Israeli spies like Shai Masot work to damage Labour.
This is not conspiracy, this is documented & out in the open.
We've seen The Lobby. 8/
We've seen the US Sec of State promise 'Jewish leaders' the US will do all it can to prevent a Corbyn gov. Foreign interference is fine in the 'special relationship'. The Israel gov is just 1 of many entities hostile to a socialist peacenik in No 10. 9/

Because Williamson works to highlight the cruelty & illegality of Israels occupation & apartheid, just like so many before him, the antisemitism card is played. Chris defended a black Jewish woman against slurs, but because she is left wing, her identity is irrelevent. 10/
Chris called antisemitism a 'scourge' during the very same speech he's being accused of condoning it!
This is how little they've got to go on. This is how low their bar is for pressing another big red button. They have marked themselves as enemies of progress. #DeselectionNow 11/
