    No, he said the Jews are Trump supporters who have no evidence for anti semitism in the Labour Party. Thereby giving them evidence. The man has a very limited intellect and is one of Corbyn’s advisors and a top voice in Momentum. His preferred method of communication is shouting. He was taped saying this ****.

    Imagine when all the EU migrants go home after #Brexit.
    No more baguettes or pizza.
    People in the UK will be reduced to just eating traditional UK foods.
    Like chicken Balti.

    He blundered into it and didn't appear to discriminate. And he's representative of a growing number of Corbyn supporters that are embarrassing and damaging the Labour Party.

    Is it normal to tape people in this way ? Also, did he say the Jews, meaning all of them, or just those raising the accusation ?

    Because Israel is often criticised as an acceptable way of getting at Jews in general, IMO. That doesn’t mean Israel can’t be criticised, but why the need to bring Nazis into it?

    I asked a guy at work today why he voted leave in the referendum. His reply 'cos the EU tell us how many Muslims to let in!'
    Unbelievable. I had to stifle my laughter but carried on. Any more reasons I enquired? ' yeah they tell us to do stuff'
    Bless him

    Or you can turn that on it's head and say Israel cannot be criticized because it will be interpreted as anti semitism. I brought the Nazis into it because it has happened that Labourites have compared radical Zionists to them - Ken Livingstone got into deep water for this.

    ? No one is saying trade with the EU will stop in the event of no deal. They are saying that there will be delays and challenges in a lot of different areas unless concrete investment is made in people and infrastructure. Both here and in the EU. Hopefully temporary, a few months.

    Presumably the Japanese car deal involves the British taxpayer compensating Japanese car makers for tariffs being charged on cars exported from here to Europe.
    you can listen to it yourself, he said it in a Labour Party meeting, its all over the web. Probably Zionists rather than Jews. His meaning was clear, hence the reaction, from people like John McDonnell who have previously been quiet on this issue. Not sure what is happening now, but no action was planned against him, whereas Margaret Hodge is facing disciplinary action for speaking her mind.

    Why the **** do you want to defend these ****ers? You seem like a well meaning, thoughtful person who genuinely wants everybody’s lives to be better and for injustices to be tackled. As a grizzled old cynic I might take the piss sometimes, but I respect your intent. I am a former Labour Party member (as a youth, when I was naive) and I suggest you take a good look at these people. Being a **** is not the sole preserve of the right wing, plenty on the hard left too. Their objective is not justice, it’s to win power by firstly crushing opposition within the Labour Party (which is why they spend zero time attacking the Tories) and then imposing their view of the world on the rest of us. Thankfully, they are largely incompetent and thick.

    Sorry, rant over. I just think it’s not obligatory to express opposition to the Tories by supporting this nasty little shambles.

    That Bob is the perfect encapsulation imo

    Project Fear is wrong of course the media is wrong it will be what it is

    But where is Project the opposite of Fear solutions and plans

    One side currently being blamed as fear mongering The other side moaning about fear mongering

    Can this be turned around ?
    I want at least one theory or solution from a Brexiteer as a pro EU supporter I can give consideration to

    It was the idiot racists and xenophobes (no one on here) that swayed the vote, though.

    It will be the 1000 page soon of this thread

    Collectively QPR fans contributing to the issue of Brexit have achieved the same as the politicians ... nothing

    But it’s fair to say Toyotas have problems with their design styling

    Brian Cox for PM
