The Labour Party

[George Hannah]

I agree mate, nothing much to see.
Certainly no smoking gun.
Also I believe that Labour are accusing the BBC of misrepresentation of an e mail used in the programme.

Judging from the responses included in the programme the Labour Party have had the opportunity to examine and respond to the allegations in detail.

 

[blueinsa]

They where asked to be interviewed and declined.

Now they moan they had no representation?

 

[bluwes]

He'll be shouted down just like anyone else for daring to suggest that Labour is antisemitic.

This panorama expose has been a long time coming. I'd like to see the Labour higher ups try and defend these allegations, but let's be honest, we already know exactly what they'll say.

"it's just another Tory media witch hunt against Corbyn to detract from the "real" issues..."

Its already started

 

[George Hannah]

but is it true?

 

[Len Rum]

Fair summary.
BBC will have to work hard to defend that e mail alleged by Labour to be misrepresentative

 

[The perfect fumble]

but is it true?

I didn't watch it.

I can't express an opinion about its truthfulness, because I don't know what point they were making.

Knock me down with a feather!

Labour won't engage, there's no point, they'll stay quiet until the next shock horror anti-Semitic accusations, resignations.... Whatever.

They'll be spaced out for maximum effect and there'll be an increasing number in the run up to any election.

We await your verdict after you've had a look then.

You'll probably not believe this, but I was watching They Shall Not Grow Old and didn't know it was on.

There are none so blind...

Yeah I'm confused. There appeared to be allegations of interference by Labour officials in anti semitism cases and yet on the other Jez has been accused of not getting involved enough in other cases.
Can't win really.

I won't bother, I saw the tweet from Labour and thought it might add something in here, but as I didn't watch it and have no intention of watching it, I can't comment on it.

I recorded it and watched later as the wife had the fucking buttons.

 

[BobKowalski]

So we have had BBC on Labour and anti semitism, Channel 4 on the Tories and Islamaphobia and the Brexit Party hate everyone under 50. LibDems must be feeling left out.

On a more serious note I have no idea why both main parties don’t just kick the racist shite out. It’s not exactly difficult. Politics does weird shit to people. Or it attracts weird shits. Or both.

Brilliant film, squeezes the years between us and them.

Ah the hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil approach.

Not going to work I’m afraid.

That's true, weren't all those blairites calling for Corbyn to actively intervene and boot Chris Williamson out of the party?

They can't have it both ways, then again I suspect they believe they can in this political pantomime.

Ah the hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil approach.

As I'm 62 years old and have been a member of the party since I was 16, I find reality works for me.

An important critique about antisemitism in the Labour Party, and you chose "not to watch it"?

Seriously?
