The antisemitism stuff (which is awful and horrible and gut-wrenching) should have torpedoed any Corbyn claim to the moral high ground. But even if not, I'm genuinely baffled that more hasn't been made of his hiring Andrew Murray.
This is what Murray wrote in the Morning Star for Stalin's 120th birthday: 'If you believe [which he obviously does] that the worst crimes visited on humanity this century, from colonialism to Hiroshima and from concentration camps to mass poverty and unemployment...'
'...have been caused by imperialism, then [Stalin's birthday] might at least be a moment to ponder why the authors of those crimes and their hack propagandists abominate the name of Stalin beyond all others.'
I don’t know, Andrew. Maybe because of all the murdering?
