If you bully, harass and are racist to your own members to the point they leave in their droves, if you break your own rules, break the law, act internally in fascistic, completely anti-democratic ways, if you shut down debate, suspend those wanting votes of no confidence, suspend members with no reason, no evidence, no timeframe, no right of appeal or representation, if you have media mates who report none of this, if you suspend more Jewish members than any other leader with complete impunity, if you betray the Jewish, Muslim, Black, Asian, Kashmiri, Palestinian, ‘BAME’, Traveller, Trans & Disabled members & populations, if you position yourself to the right of the Tories on economics, if Neo Liberal centre-right Joe Biden looks like Karl Marx in comparison to you, if you lie about every single pledge you were elected on, if you ignore your own legal advice, if you stand with landlords wanting interest from people who cannot afford the basic rent above those renters, if you backtrack on environmental pledges, if you seek the support and endorsement of the Murdoch press & Daily/Sunday Mail, if you welcome back in some of the most corrupt, previously sacked, people ever to be in the party who ask for favours from convicted paedophiles, if you cancel selection processes, remove whips illegally, break PLP rules, break EHRC proudly & publicly, if you completely sell-out, ignore our own legal advice, if you protect and refuse to prosecute war crimes, murderers, rapists & torturers, while extraditing those exposing those crimes, if you are in the Tri-lateral commission, if you are a ‘Sir’ in addition to all this, if you lie compulsively, if you meet regularly ‘socially’ with the Secret Service, if you ignore sovereign disciplinary decisions, if you promote racist and bullies, if you lie about anti-racists, if you listen to people and groups who are far right and Tory Party donors, if you sell access to policy meetings and create tiered payment membership options….
…you are absolutely not left wing. Or even close to being remotely left wing. To claim otherwise is about as insulting to all our intelligence as it’s possible to be. If you defend this and attack those calling it out as the problem, then you ARE the problem. No amount of daft emojis, laughter, spin, sarcasm or cynicism changes that. You may stop your internal dialogue…this is your “Hang on a minute, are we the bad guys here?!” moment…
Keir Starmer & David Evans et al are all of the above and more. So, don’t anyone dare tell me they are anything like remotely ‘Labour’ people. In addition, don’t dare try to play the pathetic “…Yes, but Corbyn….” line. Own it. Own what you are & what you support. Including those who remain silent. Silence is complicity. Oh, and anyone who thinks all of this is to get in power and then do a complete 180 degree turn and introduce Socialism is, good intentions or not, completely deluded and a danger to the Movement as they are feeding what we must oppose.
Solidarity to everyone who calls this out. Solidarity to everyone this catastrophe affects, Solidarity to all those bullied & harassed. Also, the strongest possible condemnation for our media for supporting and enabling this.
