A reel - a few thoughts on the future of the left - 1/8 The key fault line at the moment on the left should be our relationship to the Labour Party. If the penny hasn’t dropped for people about the Labour Party yet, and what it is, I don’t know what to say. There was a brief moment when we all thought the Labour Party could be a vehicle, but those hopes were destroyed by what was in effect a coup….. Not a coup with tanks rolling down the street, but as Alexi Style said with “lies and lies and lies.” In my neck of the woods those lies came from local councillors, MPs like Louise Ellman and Lucianna Berger, as well as the Deputy Leader Tom Watson. But also crucially unelected officials of the Labour Party. And when you have the whole machinery of a supposed democratic organisation rigged against you, it’s almost impossible to defend against. We know that now, and most importantly we have to recognise that it’s a permanent and lasting destruction

“The bombs raining down on Gaza are in part being supplied by this country.” Retweet if you agree with Corbyn

Why is the 'liberal' media peddling the vilest genocide apologism? I can't put this strongly enough. Howard Jacobson's article in today’s Observer newspaper may be one the vilest pieces of journalism published in Britain in living memory, arguing that any reporting of Israel's documented slaughter of many thousands of Palestinian children in Gaza is a "blood libel" and antisemitic. It is pure genocide apologism. But far worse is the fact that the Guardian Media Group signed off his column. This isn't the work of one Zionist loon. A whole army of journalists brought it to print. And note: Jacobson, odious as he is, isn't responsible for the choice of photo. That is entirely down to the Observer newsroom. I worked at both the Guardian and the Observer, its Sunday sister paper, for many years. The comment editor, the photo editor, the revise sub-editor, the Observer's chief editor and all the section heads would have approved not only Jacobson's text but that photo too. What on earth did they all imagine that "illustrative" photo of a blood-smeared doll suggested? * That the many thousands of children blown to pieces by Israeli bombs are a fiction. * That all the children decomposing under rubble are made up. * That all the unidentified children buried in Gaza's sands are a lie. * That all the children dying of epidemics like polio or starving to death from Israel's aid blockade are an invention. That any single journalist imagined for a moment that this was an acceptable article or photo in the midst of a genocide is astounding enough. But that a whole phalanx of the most influential and “liberal” journalists in the country backed it without a second thought tells us something about the depraved culture that passes for journalism in the western establishment media. These elite journalists are completely divorced from reality. They have no moral core, they live and work as fanatical ideologues for western supremacism. They are as racist as their forebears who cheerled Britain's subjugation and colonisation of the rest of the globe. There is no hope of ever having a healthy world as long as these war-mongers and genocide apologists are allowed to remain in charge of shaping our consciousness.

51 years ago today, Salvador Allende, the democratically elected president of Chile, was overthrown in a bloody US/UK backed coup. What followed were years of repression and death. This is the story of the other 9/11

5/5: Finally, here's a vid about Keir Starmer smearing the left and telling us to leave Labour. He was praised for this abusive speech by all those bad faith politicians who are now accusing anyone who opposes their genocidal politics of abuse. youtu.be/5qKJ8kvOVIU

I am going to say this loud and clear. This is a fight between me and Wes Streeting. The Conservatives cannot win here. If you vote Greens or Lib Dems in Ilford North then it’s a wasted vote. Vote for Leanne Mohamad tomorrow. Let’s wake up on Friday to an independent Ilford North. #Leanne4IlfordNorth #VoteLeanneMohamad #IndependentsDay💜

An Apology. Earlier today we called Bob Geldof a Tory and a Zionist, which has caused some upset. We would like to apologise to those affected - there is of course no excuse for failing to mention that he’s also a tax dodger.

@prafulnargund A very proud moment for @prafulnargund who thinks he is humiliating a 72 year old woman who has dedicated decades to the ‘Labour’ Party with this petty post. The real humiliation is that your own CLP chair couldn’t stomach canvassing for you & by the looks of it many many others

I am disgusted by reports that the Home Office will begin rounding up and detaining asylum seekers, in preparation for deportation to Rwanda. This is a terrifying, repulsive election stunt from a government devoid of humanity. We will resist, together.

With Guardian’s Aaronovitch and John Mann criticising Gideon Falter. My prediction is that all hell is about to break loose. There was a willing alliance of Tory supporting Zionist groups and Labour pro Israel groups to smear Jeremy Corbyn. #ItWasAScam

1/6: This University of Warwick report on antisemitism is helpful. On definitions of antisemitism such as the IHRA, the authors write: "incorporating these definitions into the contractual obligations of members of the Universities is legally unsafe". jewishvoiceforlabour.org.uk/app/uploads/20…

Freedland persecuted Corbyn and the left for years with phoney Jew-hate smears for defending the Palestinian cause. Now some non-Palestinians have been butchered, and now Israel's gone too far. The stench of hypocrisy is suffocating. #ItWasAScam

Write to your MP and ask that they urgently call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and Israel >> bit.ly/46dKFAX

Expressing solidarity with the Palestinian people is not a crime.

Must read report by UNSR @NiAolainF absolutely savaging US for violating fundamental rights at #Guantanamo, including arbitrary detention, lack of medical care, #torture and cruel treatment, failure to safely transfer cleared men, and more. @theCCR ohchr.org/sites/default/…

How can any Jews anywhere have a "Happy Passover" while this is going on? We have a lot to talk about at our seder tonight.

WOW. The response of the BBC and John Ware (all private, of course) to Martin Forde QC is absolutely extraordinary. His report didn’t damage the reputation of the BBC and Panorama, they did that themselves.
