Peter Oborne has co-written a column condemning right wing commentators who called Corbyn a Marxist & an antisemite. Commentators like, um, Peter Oborne, who in 2018 wrote in the Daily Mail: "The Labour Party of Jeremy Corbyn is a party of Momentum, anti-Semites and Marxists"
Oh look, here's Peter Oborne in that same 2018 article calling Corbyn "unfit for public office", "unworthy to be an MP" & speculating if there is something "hideously sinister" about Corbyn's views regarding antisemitism dailymail.co.uk/debate/article…
If today's article is a mea culpa, Oborne appears to have forgotten to mention his own role in what he calls a "carefully planned and brutally executed political assassination". Or maybe his editor at @MiddleEastEye was just being kind 🤔 middleeasteye.net/opinion/killin….

The leaked #LabourReport has this paragraph about the different factions in the party, including "John McDonnell's Labour Representation Committee". So what has John McDonnell's Labour Representation Committee had to say about antisemitism in the party? /1
Defend the antisemites! /2
Oppose the "confected row about alleged antisemitism" /3

THREAD on the Labour Party report that was due to go to the EHRC, was withdrawn and has now been leaked everywhere. A few thoughts having read it /1
Firstly, it's a massive data breach. There are dozens of names of people investigated/suspended/expelled for antisemitism, often alongside the name of the (usually Jewish) person who reported them. It's an incitement to further antisemitic harassment and must be investigated /2
I've redacted all but the most public or essential names from the parts I've used in this thread, but the original leaked report is fully unredacted /3

Goodbye Jeremy Corbyn. They said you don't have an antisemitic bone in your body. That may be true, but your brain is full of it. Can we remember all the examples? Probably not but I'll have a go /1
The mural, obviously. Jewish bankers with big noses making loads of money while others suffer. Why are they taking it down, you asked. Because it's antisemitic, everyone replied. But what about free speech, you said. Free speech for antisemites? Really? theguardian.com/politics/2018/… /2
Saying British "Zionists" who have lived in Britain "all their lives" "don't understand English irony". In other words, they aren't properly English even if they are born here. Which is what racists say about Jews. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6… /3
