Sky Television News, "Tomorrow's Newspaper Preview", has this evening (Saturday 31st). overstepped the mark, allowing their "reviewers" to descend into the world of personal abuse, lies and insults in their comments about Jeremy Corbyn and anti semitism in the Labour party.
Christina Patterson and Bobby Friedman vied with each other for the distinction of being the most vehement reviewer, and although not agreeing on Jeremy Corbyn's ultimate political fate, both agreed that he is currently a member of or at least closely associated with, more than 400 anti semitic groups on social media and elsewhere, with Patterson even suggesting that some of Corbyn's comments or endorsement of others comments is in breach of "Hate Crime" legislation and as such should be prosecuted accordingly. Friedman, with his legal background did not endorse the more scathing Patterson remarks, but nevertheless added his own malevolent criticisms to the tendentious segment.

We must expect, during this current media frenzy of anti Corbyn, anti Labour hysteria, that there will be news items, media comments and reports which will touch the very margins of propriety, but this evening's Newspaper Preview has exceeded these limits with an outrageous barrage of smear, lies and personal insults. No doubt Sky News will defend this item and both Previewers under the blanket of Free speech and comment, but taken with previous news segments and paper reviews from this station, it is abundantly clear that Sky has thrown off the mask and has now descended to become the television version of the gutter press ranking with the Mail and the Express for sheer vitriolic lies and defamation.

Northern Ireland and Brexit. The return of "The Troubles"

Northern Ireland: police attacked in another night of disturbances | Northern Ireland | The Guardian When the "Brexit" debate was still filling our newspapers and our television screens, readers may remember why I had changed my mind since voting to leave at the referendum vote. Apart from the economic arguments, which had become crystal clear after peeling away all the lies and misrepresentations trotted out by Bozo Boris and his "Get Brexit Done" conspirators, there was always the problem of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Would it be possible to have a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom where people, goods and services could pass freely between the two nations without customs restrictions, tariffs, duties and all the other formalities? Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe

Plemont development or return to nature?

  http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-jersey-  A date has been set for a public inquiry into plans for Plemont Headland. This exceptional location must be sold to the National trust for Jersey, and returned to nature. Any other outcome involving development of the site, can only demonstrate the extent to which greed and self interest have become endemic in Jersey.

The Parliamentary Labour Party conspirators are hatching another coup.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/corbyn-labour-leadership-rebel-mps-a7202641.html Labour MPs plan for Corbyn victory  and plot how to confront an emboldened leader Even for the "Independent", the number and use of unnamed anonymous "sources" in this article is quite astonishing. However, amongst all the usual speculative delusion, there is one factor which causes concern to anyone who believes in the Labour Party, its principles and in he democratic process of the Labour movement. It is abundantly clear that elements within the Parliamentary Labour Party, are even now, planning another coup in the event that Jeremy Corbyn should emerge as winner in the current ballot. The failed coup of earlier this year, has now descended into a sham leadership election, because the conspirators still fail to accept the democratic decision of the Labour party membership and cling to
