As for the incident I saw first hand, it was in London over 12 months ago. A guy had something like "I stand with Israel" on a white t-shirt. Some one passing asked him how he could support such a thing and then unprovoked said he'd be surprised if some one doesn't knife him if he continues to wear that shirt. When a few people tried to calm the situation down he walked away but not before calling him a "stupid Jewish pr1ck." At this point the man with t-shirt responded with "I'm not even Jewish." The other man was wearing a hoody that said "Jeremy Corbyn 4 PM" across the back of it. That's clearly awful and abhorrent behaviour, but it's a bit of a stretch to suggest it has anything to do with the Labour party in general. Still, give the Mail a call and I'm sure they'd print it. ...and they've got history on the topic; www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/2018/03/27/one-thing-everyone-needs-to-know-before-sharing-the-daily-mails-enough-is-enough-story/

I think its pretty sad at what this forum has become. I've never said that the Labour party is extreme as a whole. Its the certain elements that are quite disturbing especially when they ally themselves so closely to Jeremy Corbyn. Most people do not care who is the leader of the Labour party but the ones who make anti Semitism comments are from the far left and have been making disgusting comments in droves. As for the incident I saw first hand, it was in London over 12 months ago. A guy had something like "I stand with Israel" on a white t-shirt.

The other man was wearing a hoody that said "Jeremy Corbyn 4 PM" across the back of it. This is something that would probably never happen around here. But it does happen on a daily basis in parts of London alongside many other forms of racism. But I'm glad that some of you find it so amusing. I'm also glad that colebridgebull once again has shown his maturity at being able to administrate a forum. His obsession with making up lies about me has actually become rather amusing. But I know when it comes to anti Semitism and all form of racism my conscience is clear. Because I have never committed such a thing and have never willfully ignored it which is what some of you are doing now. Its not ok to look at another political group and to be critical but then ignore the very same thing when it exists in a party that you support. Let's see if any of you can come up with a response that doesn't involve petty insults, made up crap or more "its all tory tabloid lies." I think most people have had enough of that regurgitated #@&te. What a load of old ballocks.

Brexiteers fall into two categories:
(1) those who admit they got it wrong, and (2) those who don't.

Oh so no new anti Semitism stories today then? I love this new "let's pretend nothing happened" attitude. Not sure you're even trying to achieve by it. The problem is there for all to see and you're all running around with fingers in your ears. Anyway his the big story that you've all read I'm sure. But I seriously doubt I'll get any sort of serious response. www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-43578225

No story here.

If I were this jammo chap, product of a minor educational establishment, I would be reserving my contumely for sections of the community who regularly cause problems.

Some one posts an article on the holocaust being a myth or something along those lines with zero comment. Now to my mind when people do that on facebook they are advertising it in that they agree with it. Look at the Labour MP's who are not happy with the situation right now. I'm just utterly puzzled as to why people on here are attempting to sweep it under the carpet as if there's not even the slightest of evidence of there being a problem. Its incredible that people wont admit that there's a problem in extreme left wing ideology. Unlike some on here I'm not accusing the whole of the Labour party of being anti semitic like when some people tarnish all conservatives with the same brush. But I think that many of you have shown yourselves up to be what you really are these past couple of years. I think deep down many of you are anti semitic which is actually rather amusing considering all the stuff I've had thrown at me over the years. But overall this forum has been beyond a joke for too long now and the sooner colebridge let's some one level headed take over the forum the better. Otherwise nothing will actually change.

If I were Colebridgebull I'd be more concerned that someone might let slip to his employer that he posts jokes on here about date rape and mocks elderly people with mental health issues. I understand he works as a solicitor; not really a profession where posting offensive remarks online is acceptable.

The term "anti-semitic" is trotted out without due thought, isn't it? It is a term which, by its very nature, suggests negativity. It has overtones, doesn't it? All of a sudden we're conjuring up images of the Holocaust. If, on the other hand, somebody says "do you know what, I'm not all that fond of Semites, on the whole", there is surely an argument that it is their unalienable right to be not all that fond of Semites. It's that word "anti", isn't it? used wilfully in many cases to suggest that somebody guilty of being "anti" is actually going to DO something about it. Which, of course, they are not. Some people.....

Jammo, you are in no position to take the high moral ground here. You once quoted from a right wing website whose stock in trade is antisemitism and holocaust denial. You denied it strenuously. Some might have even believed you. Maybe we should "sweep it under the carpet". I will if you will. After all, you were young and stupid. But it is tough to deal with your rank hypocrisy on anything to do with equality and social justice.
