Labour & Anti-Semitism.

I see there’s someone from the institute for race relations involved in the book launch

got to love that anti racist solidarity
 
Can anyone clarify exactly what Mr Wadsworth said or did that led to his expulsion?

Thank you.




Veteran anti-racism campaigner, journalist and broadcaster, Marc Wadsworth, has won his libel case against the Jewish Chronicle, with the newspaper agreeing to pay “substantial compensation” and issue an apology:

Jewish Chronicle pays damages and apologises in open court to Wadsworth for smears

"I was deeply distressed that The Jewish Chronicle did not check its facts or contact me before its article was written. Instead, it chose to publish serious and unfounded allegations, linking me with potential criminality, which go to the heart of my reputation as a journalist and long-standing campaigner against racism."

He's been appallingly treated by the Jewish Chronicle. He should not have had to have gone through all the stress of taking this paper on. I'm disgusted by how the paper treated him.
 
I am not sure who is funding the JC but they seem to have to pay a fuck load of libel fees. Surely they can't be making a profit with those extra costs.
 
Mrs. Idris just sent me this - what do you lot reckon?


The trouble with relying on political education for this sort of thing is that requires an audience who are willing to be educated. . .
Haven't had time to read it properly, but I've always been put off anything by Daniel Randall after his amusingly bad contributions to these boards ten/godevenmorethanthat years ago. And David Renton isn't in the Labour Party.

Otherwise, education can be good, if it splits the willing from the unwilling to learn.

Is that Keith Harris with Orville in a yarmulke teaching unhinged mouth frothing PSC types why racism is bad?

Tbf, Randall would've been a lot younger ten/more than that years ago. He's always seemed fairly decent to me - admittedly, he is a trot and a Labour Party trot to boot, but that's not the end of the world. I might try reading his book at some point. And with Starmer's bannings, I'd guess there's a good chance that neither DR is still an actual Labour member at this point, sure they tried kicking him out back in the very first Corbyn-era purges.
 
Quite a result for her. In the tweet below the one i got the article from someone is saying there are currently 46 Jewish people under investigation for antisemitism.

and then theres all those who have already been booted out.
i hope this opens up the floodgates of counterclaims

It's mentioned in the article:
"Neslen called on Labour to withdraw complaints against other party members under similar investigation. Jewish Voice for Labour, of which Neslen is a member, says it knows of 46 Jewish Labour members, two of whom have since died, who have faced or are facing disciplinary charges relating to allegations of antisemitism."
