New Labour MP ‘must be suspended’ say the usual suspects.
Less than 48 hours after Lisa Forbes for Labour held the Peterborough seat, there are calls from the usual suspects, led by Wes Streeting, Margaret Hodge and John Mann, for the newest MP to be suspended from the Labour party on the grounds of "antisemitism". Not to be outdone in this endless witch hunt, the Jewish Labour Movement, Labour Against Antisemitism and other pressure groups have joined the clamour for her suspension. Having failed in their attempts to influence the Peterborough result,the "antisemitism" smear campaign are becoming desperate and now frantic in their continuing quest to undermine and replace the leadership the Labour party. Until now the "antisemitism" tactic has been reasonably successful in that much time and effort has been expended by our party arguing and refuting many spurious allegations, when our energies should have been directed at attacking the government and stressing our own policies on housing, energy, public services, NHS and one thousand other priorities for our people. We have been dragged into a cul de sac of argument and discussion by some MP's and other outside organisations each with their own agenda on our party and its present leadership. However, recent events have demonstrated that this negative tactic has failed and is now counter productive in its desired effect. We must not allow this ploy to resurrect itself when people around the country, are disparate for new policies and the politics of hope in their everyday lives. Perhaps the time has come for those within our party and in other groups who seek the overthrow of our leadership by any means possible, to recognise that the smears of antisemitism are done for and that they should now seek another party more in line with their views and positions. We on the other hand must concentrate on the forthcoming general election where we can create a society for the many not the few.
