That Twitter feed is appalling and disgusting, beyond that I don’t know what to add frown

Edit: the content it exposes not that it’s been published

The reality is the AS is so deeply ingrained, there is no possible way that a labour party with JC at it's head and momentum as a primary driving force can possibly get rid of AS in Labour. It's a characteristic of those on the hardcore marxist left to be antisemtic

It's long since gone way beyond changing a few procedures or kicking the odd person out

I suspect JC and his closest allies realise that, hence their stance of making the right noises to appease their cult like fans, whilst actually, doing as little as possible

It's a truly sad state of affairs

I've no doubt some of those still in denial may wake up when it's gone way too far, but that's of little consolation

Thankfully, unless there's a huge sea change in the next 7 days, Corbyn will hopefully be gone soon

The AS comes with far left politics . He can't get rid of it with Momentum loons in charge. The only way it will change is to expel thousands of members and move the party to the right. Almost impossible. The electorate will send that clown a message next week. Will they listen. No. I will wager many will say it is a zionist plot. They just get it

I wonder how badly Corbyn and co would have to do to get overthrown?

He’s already survived all sorts of votes of no confidence and plots in the early days from the Parliamentary Labour Party but whilst he has momentum and the unions (and possibly the students) behind him, then they can’t get rid of him.

In 2017 when he did better than expected, they were saying he’d won the election. Even then he didn’t come close to winning anything.

I honest feel he can't wait for the election so he can resign-he looks worn out.

I'm not sure they could get rid of him, Labour's best hope is probably him choosing to go and I'm not sure how long he'll choose to cling on for.

And if he does go, who next? There are some hilarious and terrifying replacements lined up.

Don't forget it's been a while since 2015. The highly amused Tories won't do that again, the students at the time are now paying taxes. He's only got Momentum and the unions left biggrin

And the rabid Tory haters.

Interestingly enough though, the slightly less crazy ones have started to wobble a bit though where he is concerned, I've noticed.

I've definitely seen some major wobbles in at least half a dozen people who were fanatical in 2017, mostly rooted in the AS issue.

Yes, one extremely vocal supporter I know has suddenly distanced himself from Jezza, namely after the Andrew Neil interview. I think that was the last straw.

What happens when you give Labour supporters Corbyn quotes on Jews, but pretend it was Boris who said them

https://youtu.be/ITCX2mDiFzE
Very predictable, but funnylaugh
If you’ve ever seen a documentary that focusses on a cult and the brainwashed members then you get deja by watching that.
At least the woman at c2:30 sticks to her first statement, when told it was Corbyn who said it. She maintained that Corbyn therefore wouldn't be fit for office.

Would be interesting to know how many were like her vs the others shown. It might be she was the only one, or there were more - always an issue when you're seeing a short clip

So vote Labour.
It was on the list of pointless choices for voting this time but not selected
It would be a total waste of a vote.

According to YouGov people who are fans of Corbyn like:
  • Nivea
  • Euromillions
  • Windows (For licking?)

In case you are wondering fans of Boris like:
  • Lynx
  • British Museum
  • Science Museum

There's some fking hilarious stuff in those if you compare them side by side.
Fans of Boris Johnson read The Sun and 'don't understand vegetarians'.

That's the PH demographic, right there.
Still waiting for your rebuttal of the video posted earlier.............

Am I missing something? This party of anti-semites, communists and morons is STILL polling at 32% and has a realistic chance of forming the next government.

This country really is crackers.

Just watched Corbyn interview on Neil.

The WASPI women part was a disaster.

Does he think it's a bit vote winner trying to ram the reasoning in? Perhaps not a disaster for others.

At least he turned up unlike Johnson.

Going by what I've seen from the loony 'friend' on FB which i just de-friended,a video not a post. Corbyn is not AS, it's a smear by billionaire newspaper owners. His wife also posted 'I didn't know Phillip Scofield was a Tory tt'. Consumed by hate, much. My rationale is that they don't love Corbyn so much as hate the Conservatives, which with this couple is most likely Brexit related and the frothing has escalated. I suspect because they know it's game over

That clip of the Uber lefties being given the Boris vs Corbyn quotes is hitting the mainstream now I see, and it’s causing a proper ststorm!

I have this rather horrible feeling this time next week we will be waking up with Corbyn in the driving seat being guided by those rather nice people at Momentum, Abbott not believing her luck and McDonnell about to stick a red hot poker right up my.............

Stranger things have happened in elections recently and the country could well be in for a nasty shock.
