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.

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...

Enough of this hysterical nonsense

  http://style.uk.msn.com/royal-baby/how-will-the-royal-baby-look-as-he-grows-up Media generated hysteria.                           This is too much. For the last 36 hours (thought it seems more like 36 days) there has been wall to wall news coverage, media and television comment and reporting, with Sky News taking first prize for frenzied minute by minute reporting from the Palace, the hospital, from a village somewhere in England, from the studio and anywhere else that Burley, Botting and company could stick a microphone into some obscure "celebrity's" face and ask for yet another banal quote. All this galvanising the mass hysteria of some elements of the public, (who the media would have you believe is the reaction of "the whole world",) with their flag waving, dancing, singing and cheering over what is after all, no more than a woman having a bab...

A perverse and rather sinister media obsession to discredit, smear and undermine Jeremy Corbyn

http://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/venezuela-jeremy-corbyn-blasted-for-not-condemning-president-maduro-a3606156.html#commentsDiv Venezuela: Jeremy Corbyn blasted for not condemning socialist President Nicolas Maduro as violent conflict escalates There is a perverse and rather sinister obsesseion with the media and particularly television "interveiwers", in seeking to secure from Jeremy Corbyn a "condemnation" of some person or organisation or event. This time it is connected with events in Venezuela and the actions of President Nicolas Maduro and the bloody crackdown on protests against the result of last weeks poll which inaugurated a constituent assembly . The media "stories" and the interrogation by the television interviewers, are as subtle as a sledgehammer being nothing more than a variation on the "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?" question, which so many repoters use in order for them to make themselves appear very ...
