Labour has every reason to go after the far fringes, not least because that is where it will find enemies, not friends.
Consider last Friday’s anti-Israel in demonstration in Bradford, organised by Arshad Ali. See him rail about Bradford’s Labour-controlled council. 1/8
The council “created every obstacle they could” for the rally, he claims. “We refuse! We stand in solidarity with Mr Corbyn!”
He adds that he has been rejected by Labour (good!) and is "in exile".
Well, the council was right to be concerned, if Ali’s claims are true. 2/8
At one point, the disgraced former MP and awful antisemite David Ward was listed as a speaker at this rally. So was "Lowkey" (TBC), a raging Hamas fan and ridiculous 9/11 truther. 3/8
In the end, the crowd had to make do with the nasty Islamist activist Salma Yaqoob, among others. Corbyn chatted amiably with her at the event. 4/8
Mind you, though, Arshad Ali does try hard. In the clip, he says "we welcome Mr Galloway, sorry, Mr Corbyn to Bradford". He stumbled because he was one of Galloway's key Bradford "Respect" wreckers. And yes, he too is an antisemite. 5/8
So no wonder he is bitter. Very bitter. Happily for Arshad, that Jeremy balm does soothe. 6/8
Labour has turned a blind eye to its people speaking at countless Israel hatred events, from early May right up to this rally. Even though the movement brims with people who have nothing but contempt for today's party. 7/8 bradfordsocialists.wordpress.com/2021/07/17/cor…
You see, the frontbencher Imran Hussain MP and Richard Burgon MP did speak at the rally.
The fringe proscription move, if overdue, is very welcome. But action is needed all the way up to the PLP level if Labour is truly to extricate itself from Corbynism's hateful swamp. 8/8

Understand how revolting the Sheffield haters are. This is Annie O'Gara hailing Nael Barghouti at a protest in January. His great achievement? He murdered the Israeli bus driver Mordechai Yekuel.
Naturally, the Green Party loves the Sheffield haters.
Abuse, threats, and violence - that is the haters' way in Sheffield. Meet Musheir El-Farra, Chair of the local branch of the "Palestine Solidarity Campaign".
Brownshirt Bristol. There too haters knock on people's doors to make Bristol pure. The local Green MP Carla Denyer loves it. Here she is, sickeningly set to upbeat music. This is the party of hate.
If you see the poison stickers on a shop window, give the creeps no trade.
They're at it in Sheffield too, where there is a flourishing hatred movement for racist terrorists.
Ask the Greens and other contemporary brownshirts if they demand a blanket boycott of any country on earth apart from Israel.
We all know the answer and just what it means.
There is lots of this, across the country. Off to do the big family shop? You may find a gauntlet of shouting idiots. Enough. Stop it. Leave ordinary people alone.
The Islamic Centre of England, a charity, is a central London node of the Iranian regime's network in the UK. Propaganda is its mission.
The Charity Commission has warned it about choosing event speakers. Well, perhaps you remember this poisonous brainwashing of children? 1/6
"For you I will rise up and you will not see me fall. From the 313, you will see I will answer the call … Take my oath of loyalty as a warrior and servant.”
The lead singer, Noureddine Alkathemy, will appear at this event, alongside the Centre leader, Hashem Moosavi, who has called Iranian protesters for freedom "soldiers of Satan". 3/6
It is good to see the US stepping in to sanction top Hamas UK operative Zaher Birawi, seeing as successive UK governments have done nothing about a big operation here.
So, who are his mates? Hate marchers, first and foremost. Here he is, third from left, heading up the... 1/10
...first big "Palestine Solidarity Campaign" protest in London, just a week after the Hamas atrocities. His "Palestinian Forum in Britain" outfit is one of the six main national hate march organisers.
To his right, Kamel Hawwash, the former Chair of the PSC. To his left, ... 2/10
...the fanatic Ismail Patel, leader of "Friends of al-Aqsa", another main hate march organiser.
They started out as they meant to carry on. The protest was horrific.
"The doctor will hate you now." Yet another episode, brought to you by the "Palestine Solidarity Campaign". The cause is antisemites in the NHS. The target is Wes Streeting MP, the Health Secretary.
Ranjeet Brar is a surgeon at King's College Hospital. He backs terrorists. 1/8
Note him brandishing a book with a swastika superimposed on the Star of David. He loves this abuse, which is for the lowest of the low. Know the poison. 2/8 thejc.com/news/nhs-consu…
And the worst of the worst. A roll call of some of the most disgusting figures in the NHS antisemitism crisis is hailed. They are "exemplary humans", you see. Unlike that "weasel" Wes Streeting MP. 3/8
The Muslim Council of Britain has been out in the political cold for many years now.
It seems determined to stay there. Tomorrow, its leader will join Tom Facchine, an American fundamentalist hate preacher who loves Hamas, at Imperial College.
See how low Facchine goes. 1/9
Here he is in October 2023, when Israel had not even had a chance to count its dead.
"We're with the Palestinian resistance 100%. No ifs, no ands, no buts, no equivocations, no apologies, no condemnations."
This is not really about politics, by the way. 2/9
No, for Facchine, this is the eternal cosmic conflict with the Jews.
"They” told lies about the prophet of Islam, “just as they invent lies about our brothers and sisters today to turn opinion against them.”
The “Muslim soldiers” actually “treated Israelis decently”. 3/9
