Much to the chagrin of @jeremycorbyn, the @UKLabour Party has agreed to pay ‘substantial damages’ to seven #whistleblowers over ‘defamatory and false allegations’ regarding a @BBCPanorama investigation into the party under his leadership.

Propagating the false allegation that ‘#Jewish wealth and power’ are somehow the source of social injustice is nothing new. The #Nazis employed it, figuring that there were enough fools in pre-war #Germany to be taken in by the lie.

Sadly, (and at the cost of 6 million innocent #Jewish lives), they were right. Joseph #Stalin then adopted the idea, on the basis that ‘socialism of fools’ was a good thing, because fools are common.

In September 2015, @jeremycorbyn was elected leader of the @UKLabour Party. A familiar pattern followed. The party focused on social injustice, and where there is social injustice, there has to be blame. Once again, Socialism and #Antisemitism shared the same bed.

#Corbyn‘s election as leader of @UKLabour saw 4 long years of misery and heartache for #Britain’s #Jewish community, with levels of #Antisemitism at their highest since the World War ll. Now, finally, and at great relief to us all, the chicken appears to be coming home to roost.
