The suspension of Chris Williamson for accusing the Labour Party of being "too apologetic" over anti-Semitism despite the growing evidence of this pernicious racism has been seized upon by the Communist Party of Great Britain (publishers of the Weekly Worker) to spread it's influence. The CPGB (WW) are the puppet masters behind the misnamed Labour Against the Witch Hunt (LAW) group.
LAW is now tweeting support for Williamson and also uses it's other front group Labour Party Marxists as part of this process. They have won the backing of one of the remains of the Militant tendency inside the Labour Party, Socialist Appeal. Both are Entryist groups in breach of the party's rules as was the old Militant Tendency.
Sky News reports:
...activists in Sheffield Hallam, as well as Camberwell and Peckham in south London, have voted in favour of demands for Labour to reverse his suspension.
As this blog has already noted below Diane Abbott's CLP left Jewish members in tears after a motion was passed denying anti-Semitism.
Many of these people have shared platforms with quite unsavoury characters like Tony Greenstein of the totally unrepresentative Jewish Voice for Labour organisation. LAW also invited Asa Winstanley a vile anti-Israel activist to it's meetings who ended up tweeting:
Even the left wing John Lansman the individual responsible more than most for the rise of Corbyn is an enemy and a Zionist apparently. Lansman happens to also be Jewish. The insinuation shows how anti-Zionism has developed into a more sinister form.
These are some of the people who have bullied the Jewish community over ties with the legitimate sate of Israel for years. They shout, they picket and intimidate in the name of "Palestine" but the pro-Palestinian lobby is full of of anti-Semites and Holocaust deniers as the expulsion of former PSC Chair Francis Clarke Lowe.
The traditional Morning Star paper of the "Official" Communist Party of Britain who spurn these small Trotskyist groups also rallied to Williamson on it's front page today. Marxists of all sorts deny the existence and threat within it's ranks to the Jewish community.
All in the name of anti-imperialism. After all Jews are "white" and "rich" (I wish) and of no value to the class struggle these comrades pursue.
