Across the country Labour members are supporting Jeremy Corbyn and downplaying the EHRC report, against the official instructions of the party. So far:

•32 CLPs
•4 trade unions
•1 affiliate (Young Labour)
•28 Labour MPs@
....
This proves two things:

1) antisemitism is still deeply entrenched across the Labour Party.

2) The Labour Party is far from being a safe space for Jewish people
....
The poison remains and the patient is still sick. The hostility is if anything now deeper.

Branches, MPs and Unions are openly rebelling against the Labour leadership for the right to dismiss anti-Jewish racism....
As the EHRC report states, this denial is itself antisemitic. Will the leadership take the ruthless action they need to eradicate this endemic racism?...
It’s well documented how Labour members were radicalised, creating a toxic environment. Nothing has changed. They are still obsessed. Those speaking out are still intimidated and shouted down.... david-collier.com/obsessive-radi…
We need more than a few positive gestures from @Keir_Starmer. We need a single minded, unrelenting war on racists.

If you can’t do that, then the Labour Party will never be a safe space for Jews, opposing opinions or even critical thinking...
It will just stay a sewer of hate at this rate. For the sake of the country, sort this mess out and do it now.

Taking the full dose of medicine is the only way the Labour Party will ever recover. Because right now the prognosis is not good.

(THREAD) These are all replies to one post by a Jewish student complaining about a professor who spreads explicitly antisemitic conspiracies....
When a Jewish student complains about racism being taught at her university, it is ‘McCarthyism’.

“Where is the freedom of speech of the person freely spouting antisemitism, I mean anti-Zionism?” they ask...
Jews don’t know about antisemitism! Jonathan has his own definition and coincidentally, it doesn’t reach his threshold. There’s no assault or destruction of property so what’s the problem?!....

Yesterday my Great Aunt Rachel died at the grand age of 100. Her family and almost everyone she knew were murdered. She fled with her life and nothing else.....
Everything she knew was destroyed - an entire culture. She always considered herself German but her countrymen had other other ideas. She escaped to safety in our historic homeland: Israel....
Survivors fled to Israel because people proved they cannot be trusted not to turn on Jews.

And if it was left to ‘anti-zionists’, jews would still be rootless, and slaves to the fickle whims of non-Jews....

This is how malicious antisemitism when masquerading as anti-Zionism

The video shows the children singing a song which yearns for Israel. Had it existed their lives would surely have been saved when the world shut its doors... Image
But a Jewish person cannot even mention our murdered children without being lectured about justifying Israel government policy by someone like @flyinmybeer. That is racist.

As is comparing Israel to the Nazis, according to the IHRA definition of Antisemitism... Image
If your sentence says “the Nazis were an abomination but...” then you are probably an antisemite.

An ignorant caricature of the Israel-Palestine conflict is absolutely no excuse... Image

Your cause is not helped by exploiting our dead relatives
(Thread)

Jewish kids were not murdered en mass for you to score twitter points for your culture war.... Image
The genocide of Jewish people did not happen for your animal rights campaign to gain maximum shock value.

Jews weren’t even killed for money so it’s a stupid comparison. You picked us because you thought we were an easy target.... Image
And if you support that as ‘fair rhetorical use of the Holocaust’ then you can’t complain when causes that you don’t like adopt it.

How about everyone just stops abusing our dead relatives. Its hurtful, selfish and immoral. We need your help calling it out, not excuses.... ImageImage

Imagine there’s a street of houses with all different races, nationalities and religions living in them.

In one house live a Jewish family. A group of people want to burn this house down. Not any other house in the street, just this house.....
They know that if they burn the house down, then the inhabitants will be inside. But they still claim that they don’t hate Jews, just the house they live in....
It’s a ridiculous argument of course, so they cant get the support to set fire to the house. Instead they try to ostracise the inhabitants. Anyone caught talking to them is attacked. The people doing this claim it is for the good of humanity....
