The coming hatchet job on Labour

JVL Introduction
David Rosenberg looks at the forthcoming hatchet job on Labour, this time from the Panorama programme and urges us to stay calm. Respond with forensic refutation after the broadcast, he says, but also find more productive ways of getting information out in a campaigning way about issues of racism, including antisemitism in Britain today.
Let’s go on the offensive about the real increase in racism, especially Islamophobia, since the Tories came to power in 2010 – and ask why none of this is of interest to John Ware or the BBC.

Thank you for this. Shared far and wide. I am sorry for the way JVL voices are ignored and vilified. Solidarity.
The Bloody Biased British media is not even trying to pretend they are abiding by impartiality and broadcasting rules and getting the knives continually out for the Labour Party and it’s members and helped by the revolting Blairite traitors who couldn’t tell the truth even if it fell on their stupid heads. Lies and smears AGAIN and AGAIN. We need to fightback against our enemies who are using disgusting methods to hurt us backed by up the sick establishment. Well done to our friends David and JVL. We salute you.
I take some comfort in the reasons behind the right having to resort to “Labour antisemitism” smears and their innumerable other lies.
The major proofs of capitalism’s failure – austerity for the many concurrent with massive gains for the few – make “trickle-down economics” a busted flush.
The right can justify their hegemony in no other way so they and their lapdogs the media push the same old lies ever more recklessly and transparently.
Rising populism is a symptom of anger, frustration and societal collapse but offers no answers – the only true answer is Socialism.

I have come to the conclusion that the Conservative Party is equally complicit in the muck-sxpreading of false accusations of mass antisemitism in Labour.
Statements made by May in the House of Commons and Jeremy Hunt have chosen to exploit this farrago of lies for their own narrow advantage.
The fact that the former Chair of the so-called Jewish Leadership Council – Sir Mick Davies – is now Chief Executive and Treasurer of the Conservative Party speaks volumes.
I’m a bit confused, having watched the Panorama programme about antisemitism in the Labour Party, which seemed to be suggesting that an influx of Marxists to the Labour party since Corbyn became Labour leader and that this has been a factor in the rise of antisemitism within the party. But Karl Marx was a Jew, was he not? And does not the BBC display prejudice against him?
