A small thread on antisemitism & the Left's attitude.

I have been a socialist longer than I care to recall.

So it grieves me when the British Left (or chunks of it) don't take racism seriously, promote known racists or dismiss concerns about racism.

It is increasingly common. I tend to warn people if they interact with obvious racists.

Typically, adults & sensible people are shocked that they might have, mistakenly, helped a racist gain a wider audience.

But not all.

There is a section of the British Left that don't care if they aid racists.

The noises coming out of #Labour on racism towards Jews (let us call it that) are increasingly hollow.

Let's not even talk about the 1000s of oddballs in & around Labour, who rant on about "Zionists", etc like UKIPers talk about "immigrants", but we know where both are pointing.

One is profiled here in detailed (& mostly ignored by Labour "radicals")

Bob, pls can I, humbly, suggest that someone who promotes a conspiracy theorist & old mucker of Tinfoil racist, Alex Jones, just might not be a good example? You will recall when Taxi Artist use to rant on about "Bilberberg", as per modern antisemitic conspiracy theories?
