Corbyn would have been a better PM than Johnson IMO. I don't think he'd have been a great PM, but definitely better than this lot.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Let’s be real, Corbyn was thick as two pigs, hated the media, hated a big part of our country (Jewish people), didn’t get on with most of his MP’s, and above all didn’t even have a qualification

Would of been a disaster
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Thought you were going to be real?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well what part of that isn’t real?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Pretty much all of it, but I'm not going to wrestle this pig.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So basically all of it’s true, thanks
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Except a big part of the country being Jewish, 0.5% at the last census.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So instead we got Tory racists who hate a third of the country.

Here’s the UK’s leading historian of British Jewry, Geoffrey Alderman, Orthodox Jew and professor of politics at Buckingham University, on Corbyn’s ‘antisemitism’.

https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/is-jeremy-corbyn-really-anti-semitic/

Here’s a snippet:

‘The fact of the matter is that Corbyn has an impressive record of supporting Jewish communal initiatives. For instance he was recently supportive of Jewish efforts to facilitate the speedy issue of death certificates by the north London coroner. In 2015 he took part in a ceremony in his Islington constituency to commemorate the founding of the North London Synagogue. In 2010 he put his name to an Early Day Motion (tabled by Diane Abbott) calling on the UK government to facilitate the settlement of Yemeni Jews in Britain.

Indeed I could fill this entire article with a list of philo-Semitic EDMs that Corbyn has signed since he was first elected as Labour MP for Islington North in 1983.

In 1987 the West London Synagogue approached Islington Council with a startling proposal: to sell its original cemetery to property developers, destroying the gravestones and digging-up and reburying the bodies lying under them. This cemetery (dating from 1840) was not merely of great historic and architectural interest – in the view of orthodox Jews, the deliberate destruction of a cemetery is sacrilegious. So when Islington Council granted the planning application, a Jewish-led and ultimately successful campaign was launched to have the decision reversed. I was part of that campaign. So was Jeremy Corbyn.’

Weird behaviour for a guy who ‘hates Jews’.

The evidence against the anti-semitism smears against Corbyn is such that it can only be concluded that smearers are at best intellectually facking lazy and at worst agenda driven and downright dishonest.

He'll be back spouting the same sheet and calling Corbyn antisemitic in a few weeks. The truth don't matter. It will be as if this didn't happen and he wasn't provided with conclusive evidence.

Basically this. Welcome to political discourse from the right since about 2016. Platforming these disingenuous liars becomes tedious, turns moderates off politics and speaks to extreme head cases.

Straight out of the playbook of Oscar’s hero.

There are myriad clips of Trump chanting “Lock her up!” along with the crowd at his rallies, as well as stating the same in speeches.

Earlier this month…

Interviewer: “You famously said, regarding Hillary Clinton, 'Lock her up.' You declined to do that as president.”

Trump: “I didn't say 'lock her up’…”

They just don’t care about the truth, at all. It’s irrelevant to them.

I’ve always thought Corbyn’s alleged anti-semitism was grossly overplayed.

His views on Jewish influence over the media and fthe financial sector are shared by many people on a global scale

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Please give us one statement that Corbyn has made, at any point in his life, claiming that there is undue Jewish influence over the media or financial sector.

Just one.

This is a prime example of the recidivist type of debate those on the right think is acceptable. Admittedly its Culer but still.

In 2011 the then-Labour backbencher wrote a foreword to a reissue of JA Hobson's 'Imperialism: A Study', which argues that finance in Europe was controlled "by men of a single and peculiar race, who have behind them many centuries of financial experience".

Mr Corbyn described the economist's influential 1902 book as a "great tome" - despite the fact it highlights well-known anti-semitic conspiracy theories about the Rothschild banking family.

Btw, I’m not claiming Corbyn is anti-semetic, the complete opposite in fact,

He endorsed ‘Mural One’ and was slated for it. I thought it was a great piece of artwork

Anybody who was member of the Labour Party in the Corbyn years will tell you that anti semitism from the left was a major problem that was openly applied at a nasty level at CLP meetings to an extent that some members were too scared to actually attend meetings. My mother in her 80s at the time was verbally and physically assaulted by some of these members at her South Manchester CLP meetings and stopped attending.

We know that. It’s in the article, alongside additional context.

Still waiting for that statement from Corbyn.

Good luck with that.

Here’s a direct quote for you in the meantime:

“The 1936 demonstration at Cable Street was a seminal moment in my parents’ generation. It was a unity of Irish, Jewish and other communities against the fascists in the East End. It was also a positive assertion of the need to protect the harmonious collaboration and coexistence between the different communities of that area, which Oswald Mosley was trying to pit against each other.

Those who attended that demonstration saw the dangers of the rise of anti-semitism — and we honour their bravery by continuing to stand with Jewish people against hatred and division today.

That means… rejecting any conflation of the actions of the state of Israel with that of the Jewish people, and confronting those who perpetuate prejudicial tropes about the supposed financial or political influence of Jews.”

“They’re rejecting the black and brown stripes… I don’t know what any of that means…”

But it’s a good thing, right? Rejecting the addition of stripes added solely to draw attention to specific issues of LGBT people of colour
