When Corbyn wanted to expel the Jewish organisation from the Labour Party

Whilst being interviewed on television about his views of the Israel/Palestine conflict he claimed that he wanted people to "talk" so there could be peace. That was why he attended the Palestinian Conference that's got him into hot water over the weekend.

Corbyn claimed he had " devoted his whole life to" peace between the Palestinians and Israel.

However evidence shows quite the opposite. He backed a motion in 1984 that wanted to kick Poale Zion (now the Jewish Labour Movement) out of the Labour Party. Further he wanted the TUC to break it's links with Histadrut, the Israeli Trade Union Organisation.



How is he to talk for "peace" when he excommunicates one side of the conflict from the equation. His whole life has been to support organisations and movements that want to wipe Israel off the map and shows no regards for the self-determination of the Jewish people.

In those days the left supported every, well almost every so-called" Liberation" organisation going. The exceptions being Israel and Tibet.

Fast forward to today and although he maintains relationships with his friends in Hamas and Hezbollah, both of whom have genocidal outlooks on the Jewish state (the latter backed by Iran who want to "wipe Israel off the map".

Of course Corbyn didn't mind working for and appearing on Press TV, the propaganda channel for the Iranian Clerics.

Simply put Corbyn has NEVER worked for peace. He turned down an invitation to go to visit the Holocaust museum in Israel yet has regularly shared platforms with Holocaust deniers.

Corbyn simply cannot be trusted. Full stop!

Morning Star report shows Corbyn is lying.

This article from the Morning Star by Jeremy Corbyn shows he himself talked about "laying wreaths" on the graves of those killed by Mossad in 1991.

Erm.... Terrorists. Corbyn is Lying.

Sectariana on a Sunday

The tiny Communist Party of Great Britain is well known for it's weekly rag the Weekly Worker. Despite their protestations most readers just dip in for the sectarian information for which the "paper" is infamous. However of late they have become rather less interesting and to be honest more than boring.

Their "entry" into "Left Unity" (anybody remember them?) Only really famous for the singing contribution of one of their more deranged and self centred comrades! Pages devoted to that bored the pants off even the most intrepid "Trot Spotters". (yeah I know they're not trots but it'll do as a description for now so no OTT comments pointing this out....).

However with the rise of Corbynism the little Communist Scout Troop has half entered the Labour Party and set up its own jolly front organisation the Labour Party Marxists. Bless. One of their apparent entrants is Lee Rock who was (not sure if he still is) an "activist"  in the PCS union.

Lee, a well known member of the CPGB, has been suspended from the Labour Party for vociferously arguing for (wait for it), the right to masturbate at work. Let that sink in a minute. Then let the shock turn into laughter and then disbelief.

Priorities skewered and somewhat ridiculous.

Here's the suspension letter:

 

Musical Interlude - Cry On My Guitar by Miles Kane

It's been a few days since I last blogged so here is a piece of music that I have heard for the very first time today on Radio 2 in Zoe Ball's show. Not only is it a good song (although the video is a bit distracting) I found it reminded me of Marc Bolan/T-Rex. I'd be interested in your opinion.

This single is taken off his latest album, Coup de Grace, which was only released yesterday I have discovered. So time to go out and get a copy might try for a 45 rpm vinyl single or even the album once I've explored more of Miles material on You Tube.

There's some in every community....

In every community there are minorites, tiny groupsules of those that choose a path that is both unrepresentative and potentially dangerous to the community itself.

In the Jewish community there are those on the far-left like the self serving and rather rumbustious fools like Tony Greenstein, the politically illiterate like Jackie Walker and the tiny pro-Corbyn group of communist types and their allies in Jewish Voice for Labour.

The JVL is so small (barely 60 members) it' founders had to send emails to beg people to take up positions in the group. There are a number of other similar organisations which are essentially run by the same 6 people (probably working in the same back room).

Here's a little chart to show how this works out:

It shows how the so called anti-Semites Zionists get cover from a few of what Lenin would have described as "useful fools".

Video of SWP Bookshop invaded by "alt right"

This morning it was reported that fascists had attacked  The SWP bookshop Bookmarks and intimidated staff. It wasn't clear until now what actually happened.

The SWP Press release read:

Bookmarks in central London, a socialist bookshop and also the TUC’s official bookseller, was attacked on Saturday (4 August) by around a dozen far right supporters.

Some carried placards reading “British Bolshevik Cult” and one of them wore a Trump Mask. Books and magazines were ripped and torn, with displays wrecked.

A Bookmarks staff member said,

"Books on Islamophobia were ridiculed and thrown around. They chanted about Muslims and paedophilia, and called us traitors. While not mentioning Tommy Robinson the links are there to see.”

The far right activists also shouted about Corbyn and anti-semitism and then took Abram Leon’s “The Jewish Question” off the shelf holding it aloft as proof of the anti-semitism of the left.

The attackers also make threats to return and “show what they can do”.

Michael Bradley from Stand up to Racism said:

“Luckily no one was hurt this time, but this is a sinister development that indicates the growing confidence of the far right who feel they can attack a bookshop in central London in broad daylight. Attacking a bookshop also exposes their claims to be defenders of free speech as hollow.”

For those who do not know Bookmarks in Bloomsbury Street is just around the corner from the TUC (Great Russell St).

For information "Stand up to Racism" is an SWP front organisation.

The perpetrators, Make Britain Great Again,  uploaded a video of the event which as soon as I had watched and posted to this blog had been taken off-line. I would imagine for legal reasons..

These people are not "fascists", but supporters of the Alt Right that has grown over the last few years.

However Red London has posted a copy which is shown below.

Cliff Richard Junior. (A bit of F.A.B. fun!)

Being retired seems to lead me astray with old movies. I particularly like Talking Pictures TV which also shows Gene Barry in Burke's Law at 4:30 every weekday and I vaguely recall from my childhood.

However today I am distracted by the Gerry Anderson movie on Film 4. You can catch up with their plus one facility. This scene amused me so I thought I would share this with you.



Here's a little extra. Some rehearsal scenes from Cliff & the boys themselves. Big fan back in the sixties.
