For a long time I've had a fairly good reason to believe that @UKLabour has double standards regarding its own staff, on everything from maternity leave to bullying. This hypocritical stance on whistleblowing on #antisemitism is very much the last nail in that coffin.
This whistleblowing is not about something trivial. Its about standing in solidarity with @JewishLabour to face down the racism that cuts to the heart of @UKLabour. Something that should never have been given the opportunity to resurface from the dark recess of history.
Over the last hundred and twenty years, literally tens of millions of people have have put their faith in @UKLabour values to look after the hard working people in our communities, no matter who they are. What is happening to Labour is a betrayal of every one of those votes.
We were promised a kinder, gentler politics under @jeremycorbyn, but the reality of what he has created is an institutionally racist party, relying on bullying and intimidation to silence those calling it out.
@UKLabour, if this is the way you treat people who sweat actual blood and tears to promote Labour values, why should anyone who stands for those values stand with you now?
