Usual mixture of bluster and denial I see Jom.

1: "If the Labour Party is to survive, this has to either be proven with evidence and numbers or walked away from."

Chakrabarti's Report ensures the latter. Despite howls of protest from rather a large number of people within the Labour Party and from groups representing the Jewish Community in the UK.

2: "Make your case - give us numbers or examples - show us there is evidence of Antisemitism or stick your accusations up your fascist holes."

Charmingly put as ever Jom.

We know the numbers last reported it was 50 suspensions - because of the recommendations detailed in Chakrabarti's Report nothing more will ever be heard of the names or the details related to why these people have been suspended - That Jom is as effective a "cover-up" as anyone could wish for. And the Labour Party far from dealing with this with complete transparency they've made it as opaque and obscured as they possibly could have {Remembering of course that Baroness Royall's Report would never, ever have been put into the public domain by Labour's NEC had it not first been leaked}

Examples we had 5 complete with names and examples of the remarks that were made.

Does support for Hamas count as legitimate protest against the Israeli Government? That is the Hamas, whose founding Charter states:

(a) Strives to raise the banner of Allah over every inch of Palestine. (Article 6)(That explodes any "myth" about seeking any Two-State Solution)
(b) There is no negotiated settlement possible. Jihad is the only answer. (Article 13)
(c) Calls for action "by the people as a single body" against "a vicious enemy which acts in a way similar to Nazism, making no differentiation between man and woman, between children and old people. (Article 20) ("no differentiation between man and woman, between children and old people" - Does that sound like the Israeli Government they are talking about?)
(d) Conspiracy charges against Israel and the whole of the Jewish people: "Israel, Judaism and Jews".[Article 28)

Does singing "Rockets over Tel Aviv" count as legitimate protest against the Israeli Government?
