Jewish group walks away from Labour

[life on mars]

I'm honestly surprised to see that there's so much anti semitism on this board , but more so that the extreme factions of labour , ( not many of them) , are happy to voice it pretty openly. There's a couple on the edge who've got more sense than to admit it openly, but they're not going to condemn it either.
I don't think there are all that many Jews in South Wales are there ? Therefore it's probably an ideological thing with them.

In any case, is there a case now for something like this in Cardiff to help combat it ?

Let me just check now it is 2019 .

Isn't this Diane Abbott's patch ??

No, that video is from 2010 actually. That's years before Jeremy Corbyn was the Labour leader and the party handled the antisemitism issue so badly that it has helped lead to the sort of lunatic theorising seen further up this page by Ronnie Bird - the real Ronnie Bird was a decent, likeable man and it's a disgrace that his name is being used to peddle such offensive drivel.

Well the fact that the Shomrim are still there and still necessary after 8 or 9 years of Corbyn hardly vindicates him. In fact they're much bigger and busier now and many think that's because the views of violent anti Semites have been encouraged by Corbyn.

I remember that the real Bob Wilson was, ( unusually then), a graduate and quite an intelligent and successfull man, so it's fortunate for you that similarity to the person you use as a screen name isn't required . It's not reasonable or intelligent ,incidentally , to personally insult people who take a different view to you.
I hope and believe that people who know me consider me a decent man by the way, but I don't have to defend myself and I think we know what motivates such strong language and allegations against someone we don't even know.

It seems to me that I've disturbed a little hornets nest of like minded extremists here, but I'm hardly the only one who thinks labour and Corbyn are dangerously anti Semitic. Are they all bad and offensive ?

To me it's unbelievable that anyone could make light of anti semitism or the idea that it can become serious so soon after what happened in Germany and the occupied countries. Be aware, however , that there'd be a strong and decisive reaction long before it reached that point again.

I wonder how relatives or friends of Ronnie would feel if they come on here and see his good name used in this way (and it's not am outrageous concept). I have this individual on 'ignore' myself.
