I'm going to summarise the key findings, allegations and explosive things in this Employment Tribunal finding (that Beckett instigated and lost). Remember there is also an ongoing police investigation...🧵 1. Unite Birmingham Hotel project: There are concerns about misrepresentation of finances and valuation related to Unite's Birmingham hotel project. The project, initially estimated at £7 million, eventually exceeded £100 million in costs.

Some thoughts on the last few days headlines on the protests. 🧵
1. Gideon Falter showed up to that protest to provoke. I don't understand why he has not just said this. There is nothing wrong in saying 'I'm a proud Jew who thinks its outrageous that I cannot walk through Central London wearing a Kippah and I wanted to prove the point.' Rather than his story about randomly walking into the protest.

EHRC report in the Labour Party stands as is. There has been no removal and no amendments to any sections. The EHRC in their statement stand by their robust report. This lawsuit just failed, the only outcome is that the EHRC decided not to bankrupt these antisemitic clowns. Image

Worth noting this. Eventually Loach issued a rare apology. But the issue demonstrates his default instant gut reaction to antisemitism, whether it be Peter Gregson or Chris Williamson: The Jews are lying. David Miller.

Ken Loach blaming Jews for their own genocide through his art in the cancelled play Perdition. He is upset that we Jews are a tad angry by that accusation from a sheltered English millionaire who never faced such impossible choices in dire circumstances.
As the late Rabbi Hugo Gryn z"l put it.
"What you are doing is dancing on the grave of people no longer alive."

The thing here is that I don't really care about Delaney's crap and crude jokes about Jews. (And they do seem pretty exclusive to Jews from what @barnyskinner has shared). But what's less funny is that Jeremy somehow always ends up on platforms with people who have shared racism. Whether it be Stephen Sizer sharing content from Holocaust deniers & claiming Jews were behind 9/11.
Raed Salah and blood libels.
Writing a foreword for Imperialism which claimed “men of a single and peculiar race” (Jews) controlled banks and media. Describing it as "brilliant"

I dont think I've ever told many people this (and I've never actually reminded him) When I was 11 I was beaten up on the way home from my local non-Jewish comprehensive. It was an antisemitic assult. The first time I had ever encountered antisemitism. The following day after my parents had made a report, a much much younger @MarkGardnerCST visited my house to take my statement and to comfort me. I dont think he would remember this.

By my count over the last 2 years the crank left have raised close to £1m to fight various crank causes related to antisemitism. All for nothing. They have lost all.

Thats a big sum of money. Why don't they all club together, leave Labour and start a new party with it. All those crowdfunders. For Livingstone, Walker, Greenstein, Williamson, JVL, Paddy French, Mike Sivier, Schlosberg, Stan Kemble, Peter Gregson, David Miller. So much money duped out of people on the left in order to pursue what most Jews regard as antisemitism.

Kinder, Gentler Politics in action. I got a call from my former landlord at my old old address (that was once listed on the Barnet Council Cllr register of interests). Yesterday he found dogshit on his doorstep and hatemail addressed for me through the letterbox. Tbh I am beyond caring now. But people need to wake up that a fucking sick culture infected the Labour Party. It is what allowed antisemitism and that culture was allowed to spread. It was no accident. These people felt welcome and at home.

I mean what creates the conditions for a members to use the democratic tools of the Labour Party to pass an antisemitic motion promoting a conspiracy theory claiming the party's only Jewish affiliate has links to ISIS?
It takes perpetrators and bystanders who feel its fine. They then face no sanction or condemnation from the leadership? I mean these people were given at best a cheeky wink to keep going and that its no problem. At worst it was endorsed by default through this unwillingness to police the borders of the left and take it on.m

The problem here. As is in almost everything written from the so called left is that you never identify why this became a problem. It wasnt historically. Something changed. Something became the magnet for antisemites, fruitloops and cranks to join the Labour Party. Until you grapple with that question everything else is pointless. Why were these people drawn to this politics you will keep making things worse. Holocaust deniers thought Labour was their home FFS.

Feel like I need to point out to some in the NW London echo chamber that there are also lots of Jews not well off *outside* of the Charedi community...
NE London Jewry is a good example (but not the only one). Average career of many of my friends parents from when I was at King Solomon High School in Redbridge was cab driver, social worker, teacher etc... most were not lawyers, accountants etc...
NE London/Redbridge Jewish community was the largest UK community til about 20 yrs ago

One year ago today BBC Panorama broadcast the testimony of a number of brave whistleblowers who had worked inside of the Labour Party on antisemitism cases. They felt morally compromised by an attempt by the then leadership to cover up racism in the party of anti-racism. I have spent the best part of two years speaking to and working alongside these whistleblowers & many more who didn't go on camera to build a full picture of what went on to give to the EHRC. The testimony and extent of the cover up I read was harrowing.

Thread:
I read this piece in Jacobin. Its really sloppy in key parts of it. It seems to rely on an implication that the EHRC are not impartial without any real evidence to back this up. Here is my view on why the EHRC has not investigated the Tories. Yet.
jacobinmag.com/2020/06/keir-s… In the piece it goes very heavily on the EHRC for not investigating Islamophobia in the Conservative Party, and implies that the failure to do so almost invalidates its investigation into Labour antisemitism. Its an implication without any real basis.

Over 70 whistleblowers. From staff at the beginning and at the end of the Corbyn era. Pre and post McNicol. Including staff who worked in JC & JF offices who broke ranks to help the EHRC.

Or briefed extracts of a report seemingly attempting to lay the blame at 2 individuals. I don't think anyone has ever denied that factional rubbish in the Labour Party played a role in allowing the spread of antisemitism to occur. It created fertile ground. It gave people permission to dismiss it as just politics. Which seems to be exactly what is happening here.

I've said it before. But people need to differentiate between the crank left & the left. The crank left and Momentum (left) put up opposing candidates in the NEC by election.
Whilst too often Momentum enabled the crank left, and for that many can never forgive them. 1/ Those sensible parts of the left need to make up for their past errors. They now have a job to do. What's left of Momentum (the sane left) need to take the lead in purging the crank left bigots, conspiracists and antisemites from the party. /2

Labour Leadership candidates. A few questions.
Will you expel the cranks immediately. No appeals. No faff. I don't mean the hundreds of thousands of young people who joined to change the world. I mean the cranks who have tried to radicalise others to hate using Labour spaces. Basically anyone who thinks Chris Williamson, his fellow conspiratorial antisemites, Assadists, Assangists and Co has a place in the Labour Party.

Thanks for the gaslighting @lara_eleanor. Now let's take a look at that achievement chart of yours. Looks like something the conspiracists at Skwawkbox and Co would produce. 1. A 100% completion rate on cases prior to Jennie taking office.
How do we know this to be true when the numbers are not published. A large number of complaints, especially from Jewish members are copied into @JewishLabour and our tally significantly differs.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT - No platform online racists. A thread
I am about to perform a public service. @JewishLabour is currently bombarded (as we do often) by tweets by some guy based in Durham. /1 This chap has a particular outlook on the world. Calls himself a 'journalist'. Stood to be an Independent Cllr in Durham. No connection as far as I am aware to the Labour Party. But he seems to have a particular gripe with the Leader of Durham County Council. /2

Nothing surprises me anymore... But this Thursday @johnmcdonnellMP is coming to Barnet, as he promised me when we met after the election... But clearly @johnmcdonnellMP was not listening to me and Phil. There are few ways that he could damage the situation with our Jewish community further, but somehow he is managing it. /2
