Not entirely unpredictable that a BBC journalist who amplified and editorialised anti-Corbyn messaging for four years winds up working for the Murdoch empire

It was a kiss that nailed him. Not the PPE or track and trace disasters. Not the decision that turned care homes with the most vulnerable people into Covid megaspots. Not the public contracts back handed to mates who then made a total hash of it. A kiss.

History will surely look back on this time as one of the darkest periods in British journalism and modern democratic life. #AntiCorbynism has become more insidious and repressive than McCarthyism

Unfortunately this is not quite an 'analysis' of any sort. It is riddled with baseless assumptions and inaccuracy that should not have even passed the editorial threshold for an opinion piece...

The motion to deselect Corbyn does not mention antisemitism. Nothing more perfectly exposes what was and is, fundamentally, a war against ideas - about a genuine and possible alternative to rampant inequality, climate chaos, endless war..

As prolific a liar as Johnson is, 'Vladimir Corbyn' is the product of a much bigger lie carefully constructed by the British establishment and its compliant media for the best part of 7 years.

The face of the Labour leader when Boris Johnson called his predecessor "Vladimir Corbyn" at PMQs. Such a laugh. (Unlike Johnson, Jeremy never played tennis with the wife of Putin's former minister for a £160,000 donation, but has protested against Putin's barbarity for decades)

One of the most successful propaganda myths of our age (with roots steeped in the legacy of empire) is that political corruption is something that happens 'over there'. The shattering of this myth is long overdue.

Something incredibly poignant about a voice so maligned and excluded finding its way on to the airwaves. A Jewish Zionist tells LBC 'I would happily fight for Israel and die for Israel but what I won't do is lie for Israel. And calling Corbyn antisemitic is simply a lie'

Today’s settlement is a misuse of Labour Party funds to settle a case it was advised we would win in court. The leaked report on how anti-semitism was handled tells a very different story about what happened.

beggars belief that Board of Deputies still think they're entitled to speak on behalf of 'the Jewish community' when they are themselves elected by a minority and treat dissenting groups and other minority voices with utter contempt. disgraceful.

The Labour Party Was Wrong to Apologize to Jeremy Corbyn’s Critics

Keir Starmer’s Labour leadership has chosen to settle a libel action it had every chance of winning, as a way of marginalizing the party’s left wing. But that settlement can’t dispel well-founded...

A vote for Labour is not a vote against the Tories. Its a vote for the rigged system, corporate interests and wealthy few that both parties are now equally committed to defending, albeit in marginally different ways.
