On Oct10 you wrote to me: "As indep advisor I will not be giving a running commentary on Corbyn, Williamson , Rees Mogg or anyone else." Nov 15 on your time line you commented on an individual case of a Tory candidate you deemed to be antisemitic. What's going on? @LordJohnMann
@LordJohnMann If you are in fact commenting on individual cases, could you please comment on Suella Braverman, Crispin Blunt, Toby Young, Priti Patel, Toby Young, Rees-Mogg and Dominic Cummings. Look forward to reading what you have to say: @LordJohnMann
@LordJohnMann The thing is, John, you are a public servant. We are paying your salary to investigate antisemitism. Twitter is a public place where you put out statements. I have correctly quoted you but it's in contradiction with what you are doing. Can you explain #PublicLifeStandards
@LordJohnMann As you are employed by the Government (not by the Tory Party) then presumably you are bound by a need to be non-partisan. You are making comments on individual cases on your timeline but no comment on Rees-Mogg, Cummings, Patel, Braverman, Young, Blunt. @LordJohnMann
@LordJohnMann On less high profile cases, your might want to look at the now prevalent use of the offensive term 'kapo' to describe Jews who support Labour and 'cheerleader for Soros' from the political editor of the Jewish Chronicle.
@LordJohnMann I know it's complicated, John, but you see the entity you call 'the Jewish Community' has historic divisions and arguments and some of the insults and abuse used in these arguments can sometimes drift into antisemitism.
@LordJohnMann I mean, when @dannythefink (who has blocked me) said that my views were 'atypical' for a Jew, he was implying that there is a 'typical' Jewish opinion. Whoaaah! Alarm bells, eh John? What is a 'typical' Jewish opinion? Any thoughts, John? @LordJohnMann
@LordJohnMann For readers' information, a 'kapo' was a Jewish guard, used by Nazi camp commandants to police Jews and who were then often exterminated later.
