It was heartening being with the crowd & hearing the speakers at the demo outside Labour Party Headquarters, against #LabourAntisemitism. Naturally, Labour Party Forum doesn't take a kindly view of it.
...and I don't think the forum called JC'sLPF is going to stand shoulder to shoulder with us either.
Why do they always say, 'So be it?' in precisely this context? Unroll @threadreaderapp

1) I haven't got time to make the usual collage so I'm going to post a thread of raw shots & hope it makes sense. It's all from the Facebook Forum called Truthers Against Zionist Lobbies. Are you ready?
2) And happy new year to you too, Rita. You know not what you do.
3) Truthers like the new improved mural, featuring Corbyn Pantocrator.

It's an eclectic group. Rima's article (I haven't looked yet) may be sane, compared to Karlbarkhuysen's post. Jane attributes opposition to Gilad Atzmon to Herut, so she's mistaken, to use a euphemism.
Mural redux and Al Jazeera's the Lobby Redux. This afternoon on 'Truthers against Zionists Lobbies.'
One of those paradoxes when they want to send American/European/Mizrachi Jews 'back to Israel'.

I've got a feeling they don't know we can see them.
If you're wondering what's in the article posted below the Mear One mural with Corbyn presiding like an icon above the bankers, here's an excerpt from it.
Here's another excerpt.

1. So I'm currently a member of the Facebook Group, Labour Against the Witchunt unofficial.

They contain non-Zionist and anti-Zionist Jews, which I have no problem with. After all opinions are like a certain part of our body which has a hole.
That said from what I have seen the group does seem a bit obsessed in thinking that anyone worried about #LabourAntisemitism is involved in smear and part of some evil Tory agenda, even though many of those speaking out (not all) are Labour Party or former Labour members.
3. The average attitude shown by the group correlates with the views shown by many of those expressed by Jewish Voice of Labour, which as @JVL_Watch highlights is not exactly something to be proud of.

A-Z of #LabourAntisemitism to be used when @jeremycorbyn supporters & @UKLabour members try to tell you there is no antisemitism in their party!

Many of these abhorrent racists have been let off by Labour, are free to peddle their revolting views about Jews to the public.
1: Alan Bull, who was selected by @uklabour as a candidate, in the full knowledge he is a Holocaust denier. He was supported by @PeoplesMomentum Director Shawcroft.
2: Afzal Khan, then an @uklabour MEP and now the MP for Manchester Gorton, compared "Israel to Nazis". No disciplinary action was taken. telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/05/1…

A thread about the antisemitic hate campaign spilling onto the streets.

We’ve started to see intimidation and violence relating to #LabourAntisemitism and it’s only going to get worse >>
Looking at a small dossier of Labour antisemitism cases, the ex-head of hate crime for the met police said nearly half should be prosecuted. > google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.lbc.…
What about the thousands who’ve already been reported to Labour? 1200 alone by @labouragainstas. Labour has become a party that harbours and protects hate crime against Jews >

1. Troll time! As some of you know, we round up our trolls in one go and tweet them out!

“We are cowards who are paid trolls and are damaging the fight against antisemitism”
2. Rothschilds tropes aren’t antisemitism 🤦‍♂️
We should be exposing the Tories
We have shape shifted into @mishtal (this is an amusing one as most people know were far better looking) Oh and we are all far right.
3. “Our aim is to rid the country of people like you”
We are “paid by Israel (highly unoriginal)
We should be “taken to court”
We have more “bollocks than a field of bull...”

1) Today we start with a long thread, detailing the Labour Councillors and Officers who have made antisemitic racist claims. Note that these are NOT rank and file members, but, people in authority.
2) Ahad voted against permission for a new @marksandspencer store because he felt that M&S are "Zionists who kill Palestinians". Dipu is quite unpleasant, he also hounded the members of the Holocaust Memorial Day org so badly, the Jewish members walked out chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-eas…
3) Lord Ahmed, blamed a "Jewish Conspiracy" for his imprisonment for a fatal motorway crash. Ahmed resigned from @UKLabour But, he is still in the house of Lords. thetimes.co.uk/article/muslim…
