As a Labour councillor, what do you do if the crowd starts chanting "down with Zionism!"?
After hearing "Nazi Israel" abuse and the ritual “from the river to the sea” calls for Israel’s annihilation? Oh, and support for stone throwers?
Why, ask to speak, of course! 1/4

Meet Wolverhampton councillor Qaiser Azeem. He goes for the “we stand for humanity” pitch seen so often at these awful rallies, including from other speakers at this one. No prizes for guessing what that makes the other side. 2/4

This rally was organised by the self-styled “Palestine Solidarity Campaign” (PSC). It is a key hub of the hatred movement that is disfiguring our country. A decent party would ban its representatives from joining up with the PSC.
The problem is that Labour is no such party. 4/4
