NotThePars Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 We might think it sounds a bit far fetched but if you are Jewish then her line about her dad saying she should always have a suitcase packed ready to leave probably resonates quite a lot with a group who have spent the most part of the last 2000 years being persecuted and victims of “the worlds oldest hatred.” Multiple Jewish people have also said that she’s speaking utter shit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Agree totally with this. He's being totally shafted by the right wing MSM. However Labour were entirely complicit in the same sort of treatment towards the pro-indy side in 2014 so it's pretty funny seeing the c***s on the receiving end now. f**k Labour. This in fucking spades.They've dished enough of this shit in the past and deserve everything when the shoe is on the other foot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Labour’s current position on the IHRA isn’t broadly different from what Chuku Umunna himself was arguing two years ago. I wonder what’s changed for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, so the Jews are to blame for this country not having the government it needs. Wasn't there somebody in Germany who tried that approach? Is it possible to be both Jewish and opposed to everything the Israeli Government is doing? I would have thought so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that is possible but such Jews get little media coverage and the U.K. Jewish leaders give the impression they are talking for all Jews in the UK even when they are not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever happened to free speech and being able to voice an opinion in this country ?? This is a very dangerous road that not only Labour are travelling but all political parties and the whole country in general............ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
