After hearing that the Israeli army had killed 16 Palestinian demonstrators I thought it would be a good time for a distraction - perhaps another chemical weapons attack in Syria. But when I turned on the BBC TV news at 9.30 this morning I found that the killings were not even covered. The main item was cricket and one of the other main items was anti-semitism in the Labour Party. The situation is now beyond parody. Labour Party members are being condemned for refusing to take the diversity training offered by the Jewish Labour Group.
