1. There now follows a rant. It may take a few tweets; my apologies in advance.
Corbyn's #Jewdas excursion was entirely deliberate, calculating and intentionally divisive. It was intended to make the anti-Semitism row look like a Jew on Jew spat.

2. The reality is of course that these are the very tactics used by the BNP. We have BAME members so we can't possibly be racist, when every single pointer was to the contrary; the BNP are as racist as racist can be. Cynically, Corbyn is playing the same card.
3. That's right, I'm comparing Labour to the BNP. Because they are two turds in the same toilet. Corbyn's little outing last night may have fooled some, but their barely registrable IQ is their problem.
4. The rest of us can see right through him. And the worst thing is, I didn't believe the man himself was an anti-Semite until last night. But I do now. What other explanation is there? Why go to the trouble of using the "I can't be racist because I have Jewish mates" defence?
5. I'm a trade unionist, and tonight I am angry. This man does not act in my name. This week, Labour became equivalent to the BNP. Any sensible moderate member should be repulsed; I know I bloody am. [end]
