    This! What sort of lefty killjoy would think dressing up as a black person and capering about in a comical manner was remotely racist?

    Jewish students put off going to certain universities due to Left-wing anti-Semitism, Labour Students leader claims

    "Jewish students are being put off going to certain universities because of Left-wing anti-Semitism, the leader of Labour’s official student wing has warned.

    "Melantha Chittenden, the outgoing National Chair of Labour Students, said that her own party’s leadership is to blame for the rising ride of anti-Jewish sentiment on campuses around the country.

    "She suggested that Jewish students would not feel as vulnerable if Jeremy Corbyn had made a stronger stand against anti-Semitism.

    "Shami Chakrabarti was asked by Mr Corbyn to carry out a review of anti-Semitism in the Labour Party in 2016. However, her report was dismissed as a "whitewash" after it found that Labour was not overrun by anti-Semitism or other forms of racism despite an “occasionally toxic atmosphere”.

    "The Community Security Trust (CST), which monitors anti-Semitism across the UK, has warned that anti-Semitism in the Labour Party has helped to fuel a record number of attacks on the Jewish community.

    "A separate report, published earlier this year by the The Kantor Center, based at Tel Aviv University, said that Jeremy Corbyn's Labour party is partly to blame for a rise in antisemitic attacks in the UK.

    "Researchers said that the "unprecendented publicity regarding controversies about alleged and actual anti-Semitism in the Labour Party" is likely to have "emboldened offenders".

    I would like to put it a clearer way.
    Antisemitism has increased with immigration.
    The figures show racism against Jews is highest from other ethnic groups.

    Labour targets non Jewish ethnic groups and immigrant voters.
    Corbyn's lack of action on antisemitism in the party is a terrible example to supporters from all cultures.

    For many Corbynistas anti-Semitism isn't seen as racism, as for them there is no such thing as being anti-Semitic, because many Corbynistas seem to believe that Jewish people, or people who sound like they are Jewish, are all part of a conspiracy of oppression. Thus, devout Corbynistas do not see themselves as racist.

    It's interesting reading down Tracy Ann Oberman's twitter feed at the range of views, styles of thinking, replies and retweets on offer:

    This is the sort of racist bollocks that we are talking about. Ullman isn't Jewish. David doesn't consider himself a Zionist and where the hell didMaureen come from? Oh I see.. he thinks they're all Jews. Perfectly acceptable social media nutter according to Corbyn's Labour.

    Baddiel and Ullman have one important thing in common that gets in the way of any attempt at producing comedy. They are both Zionists (like Lipman). They can’t see beyond that.

    What is it that makes them toxic?

    I've had it explained to me about one of those, whose social media toxicity has two main sources.

    Their elevated self-estimation driving a sense of privilege as to their rightful position in political society - which is a mismatch with their actual position in life.

    Their unfulfilled desire for the hunky rugby-player build and for handsome, uber-successful capitalists versus their reality of being in a long term marriage to someone who looks like they wouldn't need to spend a minute in make-up to stand in for Tracey Ullman should she be unable to do her impersonation of Jeremy Corbyn down the allotment.

    Hypocrisy in a nutshell!

    Standing up for equality in public privately backing discrimination.

    Denouncing Capitalism whilst benefiting from it.

    Merkel is fighting for her political life.

    Quote
    "German Chancellor Angela Merkel faces a political crisis that could reshape Europe’s migration crisis and potentially end her ten years in power.

    A standoff at the top level of government over Germany’s liberal migration policies threatens to collapse the fragile coalition that Merkel presides over."

    Merkel agrees with you, Hamble .

    https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/m...ermany-n868271

    Merkel warns of 'different type of anti-Semitism' in Germany

    "The fact that no kindergarten, no school, no synagogue can be left without police protection dismays us."

    "We have refugees now, for example, or people of Arab origin, who bring a different type of anti-Semitism into the country," Merkel said in an interview with Israel's Channel 10.

    It seems to be a global trend, and, to put it mildly, is extremely disturbing. My blood runs cold reading about the increase in anti-semitic incidents. For me, who was born in 1947, it's all too familiar. I don't want to be a part of a world where people could even contemplate repeating such a shameful history.

    Populism seems to be making people feel that their predudices are legitimised. However I don't think we should make this a political thing, that only succeeds in dividing people even further. It's a humanitarian thing, and, in this, people need to stand together and scream their outrage. We all know what can happen if we stay silent.

    I like the way Merkel calls it 'different type of anti-Semitism'.
    How will that work when the police and Government attack Jews again?
    Is Germany going to ban all Nazi's and migrants from public office?

    I cannot wait until Merkel walks.

    Your post is heartening though in reality I imagine a mass antisemitism attack would be the start of a civil war in Britain and therefore Jew and non Jew would be in the same situation.
