In 2014 Luciana Berger received truly horrible antisemitic abuse from a coordinated attack by a right wing group.
This was the abuse that later led to her requiring security, during court cases against some of these vile individuals. https://www.thejc.com/news/uk/neo-nazi-gave-out-internet-abuse-tips-in-campaign-against-luciana-berger-1.60174

REMEMBER - The Labour leader at this time was Ed Miliband. A Jew himself.
Look how it was reported. @DPJHodges did this piece in the Telegraph.
It criticises Ed Miliband but praises John Mann - and then uses it to attach Miliband on Israel. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/ed-miliband/11198691/Labours-first-Jewish-leader-is-losing-the-Jewish-vote.html

The next year with the court cases against the vile antisemites starting we had these reports - Ed Miliband was still leader

Nothing to do with the recent Labour accusations - antisemitism was having a record rise - and was 18 months before Corbyn was Labour leader.
They were fleeing right wing antisemitism https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/religion/11393427/Were-leaving-Britain-Jews-arent-safe-here-any-more.html

7/x LABOUR ANTISEMITISM
Let's look at this Catherine Deveney piece closely
> Referencing the death of Jo Cox
> Jumps around between political tensions and the right wing anti semitism
THEN goes for the kill
> "Corbynโs Labour party has heralded strangely intimidating times"

The justification for the need for security was regarding the RIGHT WING CASES. Not Labour.
"Ms Berger, who has received serious antisemitic abuse for several years, leading to prison sentences for three of her abusers."

My pitch is that MEDIA BIAS and deceitful reporting fuels LEFT WING conspiracy theory which in turn is used to claim more Antisemitism exists
The left do not "HATE JEWS", the right DO, we fight smears and get frustrated whilst doing so. https://twitter.com/TweetForTheMany/status/1111645716391383045?s=20
