"...the party right was deliberately and knowingly sabotaging the party’s electoral prospects when Jeremy Corbyn was its leader. Not because it thought Labour was unelectable, but because it knew he could win and feared that this would prevent it ‘renewing’ the party in Tony Blair’s old image.

And it admits that Morgan McSweeney’s efforts were funded by Israel-supporting multi-millionaires and organised by a man who ‘despised’ Corbyn’s politics – which were for free healthcare and education, social justice, an end to poverty and taking back the nation’s hard-won and hard-built treasures like the NHS, utilities, rail and mail from the privatisers stripping them bare for profit, and recognition, freedom and justice for the oppressed Palestinians..."

"An extract from a new book by a centrist journalist, published in the Guardian, shows the Labour right finally admitting – now it has ‘won’ – what the left knew all along: the party right was deliberately and knowingly sabotaging the party’s electoral prospects when Jeremy Corbyn was its leader. Not because it thought Labour was unelectable, but because it knew he could win and feared that this would prevent it ‘renewing’ the party in Tony Blair’s old image..."

“Establishment admits it couped Corbyn because you're not allowed to choose your leaders: Here is how democracy really works...”

by Laura in Normal Island News on Substack

As the ‘official spokesperson of the establishment’, “Here is my recollection of what happened between 2015 and 2019, and for once in my life, I'm not even going to lie..”

Establishment admits it couped Corbyn because you're not allowed to choose your leaders
Here is how democracy really works...

There are some things you are not allowed to talk about in politics if you want to keep your job. One of those things is how the establishment closed ranks for five years to bring down Jeremy Corbyn.

Normal Island News · Establishment admits it couped Corbyn because you're not allowed to choose your leadersBy Laura K

Jonathan Freedland, Hadley Freeman, and David Aaronovitch have all declared they will no longer have anything to do with the Jewish Chronicle.

It took this bloody long for supposedly 3 intelligent writers/reporters/journalists to be slightly uncomfortable at the toxic manipulation of British Jewish opinion in order to uncritically support Israel whatever. Shame on them.

+972 Magazine · Why did a British Jewish newspaper publish fake Israeli intelligence?Israel’s army suspects fabrications published in the Jewish Chronicle were part of a pro-Bibi influence campaign, while the article’s author is not as he claims.

Here's my Sunak/Starmer skunk cartoon in today's edition of the Morning Star newspaper. This is my second cartoon printed in the Star this week, which apparently has earned me a 'purple patch'.
On a more serious note; it's pretty sad that on July 4th that THIS is what people have to choose from in the UK.

Exclusive: listen to Paul Mason’s pro-Starmer/Israel meltdown in full

Via SKWAWKBOX (SW)

26/03

Hack, whose emails to security service-linked contacts about taking down left news outlets were leaked, misquotes left activist to smear her with antisemitism and defend friend-of-genocide Starmer at local meeting - but it backfires hugely

Faux-left hack Paul Mason's reputation imploded when the Grayzone revealed leaked emails showing him plotting with right-wing, security-service-linked contacts to take down left-wing news sites - along with an infamous chart of his imagined links between left groups and China/Russia. Mason did not directly deny the authenticity of the emails, saying only - and bizarrely - that they 'may' be 'altered or fake'.

And his shredded reputation disintegrated further last night after he posted to Twitter claiming that one speaker at a 'Kensal and Kilburn Better 2024' debate had accused Starmer of being 'an agent of Israel and Labour is full of Israeli supporters'.

Mason put the comment in full quotes, indicating that this was an exact quotation. It wasn't - Mason had grotesquely misquoted her, claiming her criticism of Israel and Starmer's complicity was aimed at Jewish people. Fortunately, one attendee (@urbandandy) recorded the whole thing and kindly provided the audio to Skwawkbox, of which the relevant parts can be heard, or the subtitles read, below:

Mason's claim that the woman's comments 'soured the atmosphere' is genuinely and darkly funny once the audio is heard - the 'sour atmosphere' was entirely a reaction to his smear.

Wrongly quoting someone and presenting it as an exact quote is a huge journalistic sin. But Mason's links to the security services and right-wing journalists - and his toadying to Keir Starmer, despite Starmer's support for Israel's genocide in Gaza, in apparent hope of selection for a parliamentary seat - meant that his attempt to smear a left activist quickly and hugely backfired, espite Mason's feeble attempts to cover himself this morning, as an avalanche of derision landed on him and critics pointed out Israel's already-proven interference in UK politics and the antisemitism of conflating Israel and Jews, as Mason did. A few examples are below:

Just imagine what @paulmasonnews would say about a left-wing Labour MP filmed discussing a £1M slush fund with an official from the Russian Embassy who was subsequently expelled from the country for plotting to take down MPs critical of Russia. t.co/Aw950cTvfs

your response sounded genuinely insanely antisemitic by the way pic.twitter.com/l9RmqNh0P0

So @paulmasonnews posts an accusation about being sick of antisemitism after a woman spoke out against Labour[sic] support for Israel. Unluckily for Paul, there was a transcript. Spot the ‘antisemitism’ in what was said. #ItWasAScam #TheLobby pic.twitter.com/7NREFDhCN1

I’ve just read a report of the meeting. “Why don’t to you just say Jew? Because that’s what you mean is it?” No that isn’t what she meant, otherwise she would’ve said Jew! How dare you try telling people what they mean 😠 Conflating Judaism with Zionism is antisemitic. For your… pic.twitter.com/LTUZud3WhB

Yesterday, @paulmasonnews was evidenced to have purposely lied, in a disgraceful attempt to weaponise antisemitism. Thankfully, a recorded transcript categorically proved Mason made false allegations about a conversation. This fraud should be nowhere near Labour, nor UK politics. t.co/nhl0PcNyxw

I note that you exlude your response.

Because you know it was antisemitic, which is why you made a big song and dance of your lies, to cover your own racism.

For the record, this is how paul mason responded. pic.twitter.com/EfjAqZYwoZ

Paul Mason is sick of left antisemitism......

We are all sick of Mason and the rest of the lying smearers, who weaponise antisemitism against the left!

What the woman said was factually correct, and NOTHING she said was antisemitic!

You should apologise! 🤬

X (formerly Twitter)Frank Owen's Legendary Paintbrush🥀🇵🇸🇾🇪 (@OwenPaintbrush) on XLabour MP Joan Ryan discussing a £1M "donation" from the Israeli Embassy with Shai Masot, an Israeli agent plotting to "take down" MPs hostile to Israel. No biggie. It's not as if Joan helped "take down" Jeremy Corbyn or anything. Oh, hang on. She did.

Good to see these bullies on the run, retracting assertions n giving full apologies. Galloway getting Ben Freeman to withdraw his tweet calling GG a 'Jew hater'. Corbyn has announced legal action against Nigel Farage for defamation due to AS. Lozza Fox has withdrawn his legal case this week, against a Tweeter for calling him a racist. Today a grovelling apology n damages from Baroness Foster regarding her actions over an University Challenge Team Mascot, a blue octopus.

The tide is turning.
