THREAD Over the past couple of days the story of @UKLabour institutional racism has been unfolding right in front of us. It started with the discovery of a SECRET Facebook account and has continued right through to official Labour proving the fact.
The Mail on Sunday broke the story of research undertaken by @GnasherJew and @LabourAgainstAS who uncovered a group that existed to advise suspended @UKLabour members how to get reinstated & frustrate any investigation dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7…
Exposed in this story is @UKLabour PPC @Maria4CarmsEast who was advising members in precisely the way described above. Carroll is running for a marginal seat in Wales.
After the story broke @UKLabour swiftly stated that they weren't going to investigate her "UK Labour has since told BBC Wales it will not be investigating Ms Carroll as she did not make anti-Semitic comments herself."

She also wrote a twitter thread claiming "I never saw these horrific antisemitic social media posts" etc
But this was swiftly brought into doubt by screenshots tweeted by @GnasherJew and @LabourAgainstAS who showed her own discourse within the group
So you have a Labour PPC in an antisemitic Facebook group advising Labour members how to get away with being racists and then the Labour Party decides not to investigate her faster than you can say 'institutional antisemitism' and since Sunday even more info has come out
New tweets from various accounts countering antisemitism have made it clear that MORE Labour VIPs were/are members of that group and involved in schooling racists how to remain in the party in this case it's @darrenw_cardiff
But Darren Williams is a member of the @UKLabour National Executive Committee the very committee that makes decisions on Labour Members who have been racist. How can anyone expect racism to be dealt with properly when the people supposed to deal with it are racists themselves
