There’s loads of speeches at THE Labour Conference (I refuse to omit the definite article when talking of ‘conference’, even though everyone else does but I’ve never known why). And all the speeches are free. Once you’ve paid your exorbitant fee to attend, obviously. But the best ones, in terms of freedom are by the FSOI. That’s ‘Free Speech On Israel’ group. That’s not an outspoken endorsement of the Zionist state kind’a thing. In fact its the opposite. This group wants the ‘freedom’ to slag off Israel and Jews at every opportunity. Between the lines you can certainly read ‘without being accused of anti-semitism’. They want the right to use terms like ‘Nazis’ and ‘apartheid’ and ‘land grabbers’ with impunity. Without those constant accusations of antisemitism from all those fucking Jews. And to that end, the FSOI want the Labour Friends of Israel (LFI) and the Jewish Labour Movement (JLM) thrown out of the labour party. They actually said that at their meeting. The Labour party maintain that the FSOI is ‘not affiliated to the Labour Party’ and yet the inflammatory event was on the Party’s conference agenda.
So just for the record, I’d just like to repeat Jeremy Corbyn’s and John McDonnell’s words: ‘there is no antisemitic problem within the Labour Party. Now we all feel better and totally reassured.
Like there’s no problem with ‘trolling’, that lovely practice of abusing, insulting and threatening people, usually women, online. Death threats, rape threats, all manner of lovely stuff. Yet Laura Kuensberg, the BBC political editor, now has a personal security guard to accompany her at all times because of the threats she constantly receives from ‘supporters’ of Le Corbyn. And remember, the BBC is often accused of ‘left wing bias’. Not left enough, obviously.
But not to worry. McDonnell yesterday outlined his plans to remove loads of government privatised contracts. The railways, hospitals, schools, all part funded and financed by private investors, have the bare-faced cheek to make money for those investors. McDonnell forgets that they never did that for the government, which is why they were sold off in the first place. By the last Labour government in the most part. “We’ll buy back 200 billion quid’s worth of contracts. We’ll BRING THEM BACK!!!” the tosser shouted. No mention was made of where that 200 bil will magically come from. Nor the 42 billion a year it’ll probably cost in setting up committees and quangos and administration teams to run it. Jobs for the boys.
Its not the socialist agenda of the Labour Party that I fear but the sheer militancy with which they behave. Socialists are fine. Aggressive, threatening, bullying socialists are emphatically not fine. The ‘threat level’ from Labour has moved from ‘fearful’ to ‘scared shitless’. The only level remaining is ‘run for the hills!’ We’re at Defcon 4. The only place more dangerous is Lila’s eating tray.
Happy Conference
