.@uklabour 1/15 John McDonell’s LRC posted an article with an image of a job centre sign, altered to read ‘work will set you free’. The text is from Auschwitz where millions of Jews were murdered by Nazis.
2/15 The article was by Mike Sivier, who was apparently expelled from Labour for antisemitism. LRC posted a further two articles by Sivier within the last three days alone.
3/15 LRC again seem to minimise the Holocaust, comparing Johnson’s advisor Dominic Cummings to mystic Rasputin and Goebbels, the Nazi head of propaganda.

Goebbels publicly promoted the extermination of Jews and orchestrated persecution, bans and lynchings of Jews.
4/15 The LRC also appear to advocate violence. Corbyn supporters often label people ‘fascists’ who speak out, particularly Jews.

In a speech, JVL leader Glyn Secker falsely claimed Jewish organisations had embraced fascists. In this context LRC’s post is even more sinister
5/15 This is not a one off. When a Labour MP called colleagues who didn’t support Corbyn “a bunch of c**ts”, just three days ago the LRC agreed

Previously LRC also posted this hateful image of the Liberal Democrat’s logo.
6/15 The LRC accuse Rebecca Long-Bailey of ‘selling out’ for just talking to @jewishlabour.

They also accuse her of betrayal for not supporting Chris Williamson, who has a long history of incitement against Jews
7/15 LRC posted Dorset Eye twice in under a week, a news site notorious for spreading antisemitism and even publishing lists of Jews.

They published a sinister ‘Jo Cox’ threat to @RachelRileyRR and recently labelled the Chief Rabbi ‘Judas’ for speaking out about antisemitism
8/15 LRC posted Press TV, the mouthpiece of the brutal theocratic regime of the Ayatollahs. Press TV were banned by Ofcom for being complicit in state torture.

In their post, LRC state their hope that Israelis are prosecuted despite an investigation not yet even starting
9/15 Four days ago LRC posted virulent hate site Electronic Intifada whose blogger, Asa Winstanley, is currently suspended from the Labour Party for antisemitism.

The post is about ‘Israel interfering in British politics’ which uses the stereotype of Jews having undue power
10/15 LRC posted Skwawkbox three times in just over a week. Skwawkbox are a fake news outlet who wrote about ‘Jewish wars’ and just lost a libel case to Anna Turnley. Their losses were funded by Unite.

LRC also post The Canary, another Corbyn supporting fake news site
11/15 LRC proudly quote antisemitism denier Ken Loach. He has a history of inflammatory comments such as saying Labour MPs protesting antisemitism should be kicked out the party, and that antisemitism whistleblowers claims were ‘propaganda’
12/15 LRC frequently promote the tiny fringe group JVL, known for whitewashing antisemitism. Three days ago LRC promoted JVL leader Glyn Secker, even after his antisemitic speech. The Labour leadership reportedly interfered to get him let off from antisemitism charges
13/15 There is JVL member crossover with LRC, such as Graham Bash and Jackie Walker. You can read more about LRC’s dreadful track record here
14/15 Almost all the LRC posts featured were posted WITHIN THE LAST WEEK. The fact that John McDonnell refuses to distance himself from his own organisation, despite their long history of problematic posts and members, demonstrates how disingenuous he is about antisemitism.
15/15 JVL and LRC are joined at the hip. And the common cause is whitewashing antisemitism and inciting anti-Jewish sentiment
