Apparently there is no anti antisemitism in the Labour party, right oh!

VE - “Good evening, Birdie. Do you still have your "Why Islam isn't like other religions?" post?”

Hello VE. Unfortunately I'm not sure which specific post you're referring to. I've written a number of posts that could fall into that particular category – since it is subject close to my heart, as many on here know.

Gromit - “The Labour Party is secular. It neither supports Islam, nor hates the Jews....”

On paper and publicly, yes. The Labour Party proclaims to be all-encompassing and all inclusive. But claims are one thing. Reality is another.

And the unpleasant fact is, Labour is pro-Islamic. Denial of that fact is a denial of reality. Labour is pro-Islamic because it garners a great deal of votes from that particular sector of the electorate. Labour ideals such as big, dictatorial government and centralised control chime well with the Islamic political ideal. They may have very different political end-game goals but on the road to achieve them, they share a great deal of political ideologies.

I'm not suggesting that, in general, Labour MPs or their supporters are anti-Semitic. What I'm saying is that by unquestioningly embracing the Islamic vote, the Labour Party is tacitly endorsing anti-Semitic views.

Now I know that George Galloway is no longer a Labour MP but he is rabidly left-wing – and hence, anti-Semitic. Just watch this astonishing video and tell me that the 'left' are not anti-Semitic. Old 'gorgeous George' says that he doesn't debate with Jews:

Mushroom25 -

From your link - “The tweets, which date back to 2011, were made before Ms Gurbuz, a student at University of Warwick, was elected to Luton Borough Council in May 2015, aged 20”


Who, in their right minds, elects a 20 year old as a local councillor? The mind boggles.

Interesting views Birdie1971, agree with what you say.
