The problem with Jezza is that he didn't act and tried to cover things up... (we know that from the leaked report). Now it could be the case of supporting a mate (which I think is the case) or something sinister. However, it is funny that people try a tit for tat approach? I will stick by the words of the reporter who said: "you cannot compare the two parties problems as the accusations against Labour dwarf those of the Tories". The Tories may have a few bad apples and problems but nothing like the scale of Labours. That is something Mr Starmer has inherited as well... watch this space.

Ok two points from that, firstly where is the evidence he tried to cover it up? I consider he didn’t act in a timely manor but I’ve seen nothing to suggest he covered it up. Secondly, complaints of bigotry per party member is significantly higher in the Tory party. Total numbers are higher with labour but their membership is much higher so yeah you can compare the two and see issues are much worse with the Torys.

How the Labour anti-Semitism dossier named Corbyn's top team in 'cover-up'
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politic...tism-dossier-named-corbyns-top-team-cover-up/

Jeremy Corbyn has been accused of presiding over a cover-up of institutionalised antisemitism in the Labour Party in an “utterly damning” dossier.

A senior Labour councillor has accused Jeremy Corbyn of lying live on television about Labour's attempts to tackle anti-semitism in the party.

Labour has been plagued with allegations since 2016. From BBC News

Mr Corbyn held an internal investigation early on in his tenure, but it was widely criticised by Jewish members of the party, with a number - including MPs - leaving over his handling of the row.

The party's new leader, Sir Keir Starmer, has apologised to the Jewish community for the ongoing issue.

He has been praised by leaders for "achieving more in four days" than Mr Corbyn did "in four years" on tackling anti-Semitism.
I wonder why?
I have seen a leaked document (not sure if true) re Jezza and if that comes out I will be expecting many humble apologies... However, on here, I doubt that some would accept the findings anyway... It will be a witch hunt.
 
To be honest though, I arent really arsed if Boris johnson doesnt like muslims or Jeremy corbyn doesnt like the jews. What I am arsed about is our current crop of politicians constantly lying to us British people and even on national tv.

<magic>And just like<magic> that bob appears<magic> blaming the Tories because he cannot answer the Corbyn question. <magic>
 
Anyway, on a serious note, I actually hope Jezza gets found to be 'Stupid' rather than anything else. We don't need that sort of stuff in our politics... It's bad enough without it.
