"Since the sacking of RLB earlier this week for her apparent anti-semitism. How's he going to cope now the BLM have said this: "As Israel moves forward with the annexation of the West Bank, and mainstream British politics is gagged of the right to critique Zionism, and Israel’s settler colonial pursuits, we loudly and clearly stand beside our Palestinian comrades. FREE PALESTINE." Loving the use of the word "comrades" btw..." Probably nothing? | |||

"He will make statements that criticise the 'current Israeli government policy' and not just generalise using the name Israel. It is possible to disagree with some thing the Israeli government does and not be anti-Zionic or anti-Semitic." Apparently not nowadays. | |||

Well they tried to make any criticism of Israel to be anti semitic last year. | |||

That is well within his sphere of authority as the leader of the opposition in the U.K. Isn't it? Oh yeah. I forgot. It isn't. Other than the UK government registering a complaint, (which will be tossed in the nearest bin), we have absolutely no sway or say in way the Israeli government does. | |||

He should stand shoulder to shoulder with the Palestinians like so many do justly in opposition to this illegal annexation of more of already illegally occupied land by isreal. There is nothing anti-Semitic about pointing out international law which says this is an illegal act and the west bank and other territories are illegally occupied Trump is quick to label BLM as terrorists but supports Zionist terrorists FREE PALESTINE | |||

The only thing our gvt is interested is our belly button. Have you heard them being bullish with Russia, with Israel, with a China about Hong Kong, with Saudi Arabia? I can’t see why Starmer should lose sleep over this when the gvt couldn’t care less about it. | |||

" I don't know much about Labours history with anti-Semitism but he should speak out because it's the right thing to do Under international law Israel is an illegal occupier of Palestinian lands The fact trump has his dirty hands all over this says it all Also says why Boris is keeping quiet Knows his place as a shameless lapdog to trump | |||

Probally not a wise move considering what they did to Corbyn | |||

There are some elements of this that make it difficult to separate the State of Israel and Jewishness. It was this that the Labour Party struggled with not so long back. | |||
