Save me please. Summarise it?

It's nowhere near as long as the Labour files themselves. Just watch it. But essentially Forde takes issue with the media, the BBC and Panorama in particular. It's interesting to note that John Ware's email to Forde has the editor of the Jewish Chronicle Cc'd in. Intimidation tactic? Possibly.

John McDonnell wanting a 'serious response' from those in charge. Pigs might fly:

I listen to LBC at times (forgive me, I just like to hear what normies think about things, not pundits who are all grifting arses IMO, and LBC has normies in droves) anyway, at least twice times now, a caller who starts talking about the Labour Files or the Forde report gets shut right down. I'm definitely no conspiracist, but y'know, David Lammy has his whole own show on LBC and Sadiq Khan and err Keir Starmer both have regular platforms there. Dots? Pfft, as if.

twice times lol. I'm leaving it in.

I'm surprised that this didn't mention that Rica Bird is herself Jewish, which is a bit bloody relevant.

Yeah that is a bit odd. It states the fact that she is Jewish in the full documentary though. A mistake to omit it in this clip imo.

What do you call a woman who's really far away?

I liked the Starmer quote about Forde in the full documentary, too, along the lines of "it will be a rigorous and independent inquiry, and I'm a lawyer so I know what an independent inquiry looks like." It looks like it was indeed rigorous and independent and he saw what it looked like and didn't like it.

Imagine a party which has bitter leadership contests where some factions are very much to the right.

I am not sure how true the statements in this tweet are, but they would not surprise me if they are. However this has to be the most awful pic of Starmer I have ever seen:

Hmm I don't doubt there is a lot on the left of the Labour Party who are going to vote for Starmer and hold their noses whilst they do it but implying they're switching their votes to the Tories is a bit much tbh

It's a wind up account. Probably one of Trevor Bastard's.

Corbyn joins Forde’s call for action on Labour racism and Islamophobia. Silence from Starmer

Let’s say it straight: Labour leader Keir Starmer has been accused of lying about processes within the Labour Party to tackle racism, including anti-Semitism and Islamophobia. Both Martin For…

oh delightful

Corbyn's Facebook statement

It is deeply alarming to learn that the Labour leadership has failed to engage with Martin Forde following the publication of his important report, commissioned by Keir Starmer.

The Forde Report called out the horrific sexism and racism expressed toward Diane Abbott and others among senior members of Labour Party staff who were factionally opposed to my leadership. Eight months on from the Report’s publication, it is appalling that anti-Black racism and Islamophobia are not treated seriously enough by the Party.

There should never be a hierarchy of racism. We must stand up to all forms of discrimination, which is why I called for the swift implementation of the EHRC recommendations to improve the Party’s disciplinary processes for handling antisemitism complaints. Concerns about anti-Black racism and Islamophobia, detailed by Forde, must be treated with equal significance.

The Forde Report also detailed instances of factionalism that hindered our objectives and undermined the democratic mandate of Party members. Since April 2020, this culture of factionalism has escalated. Across the country, socialist members with grassroots and trade union support have been blocked from standing as Labour candidates, denying Party members the right to fair and democratic selection processes.

The recommendations of the Forde Report must be implemented. That is the bare minimum. But we must go further in fighting for a politics of anti-racism, democracy and solidarity in wider society. That means opposing the government’s assault on refugees, rather than pandering to divisive rhetoric. It means offering bold solutions to the compounding crises facing us all. And it means building a vision of hope, which inspires people to fight for a more equal, sustainable and peaceful world.

Revisionist Starmer clique purge 19 Leicester Labour counsellors Fury as 19 sitting councillors dropped by own party

I'm on friendly terms with my local councillor, who is one of the 19. The council here is solid Labour, but I believe some of them (all?) have criticised Mayor Soulsby, so are for the chop. Soulsby comes across as an unreconstitued Blairite with fingers in many pies (ahem... allegedly). He'll have the ear of Starmer. It'll be interesting to see what happens.

Oh, hang on... Councillor wants Leicester mayoral job so she can scrap it

I just saw that on ch4 news. A Labour leader positively quoting Margaret Thatcher - ffs.

The Labour Party is officially dead.
