ThreadOur thoughts (which will no doubt prove unpopular!) on the last 24 hours in @UKLabour.
Many are saying that @Keir_Starmer shouldn’t have suspended @jeremycorbyn and should have waited until the new disciplinary process was in place. 1/
We don’t agree, Corbyn defied Starmer’s clear requests and that had to be met with some kind of response, even if the timing wasn’t optimal.
It goes without saying that Corbyn should have remained suspended and should have been expelled from @uklabour 2/

. @jeremycorbyn is an antisemite and a friend to genocidal terrorists, there should be no room in mainstream British politics for someone like him.

. @jeremycorbyn made a limited apology & let’s face it, we all know he’s lying with this 0.03% of Labour members being antisemitic in so far as both he & Formby have admitted to @ehrc that they had no idea how many cases of #LabourAntisemitism there were. 4/ https://www.channel4.com/news/factcheck/factcheck-corbyns-claim-that-labour-antisemitism-numbers-are-exaggerated
However @jeremycorbyn managed to convince @uklabour NEC complaints committee (Yasmin Dar - sister of Majid Dar who was also let off antisemitism charges) was sitting in judgement, it is hardly surprising it’s the last gasp of defiance from the Trots. 5/ https://twitter.com/GnasherJew/status/1153308783101300737?s=20
Starmer has refused to give back Corbyn the whip, well to our minds that’s a sign of things to come, he couldn’t influence the NEC panel (NB unlike Corbyn in his time as leader apparently tried to).

Starmer can control the whip, & we suspect his resolve to remove the antisemitic stain from @uklabour will have been toughened.
We are concerned about the last para in @Keir_Starmer statement. Starmer should permanently remove him from the whip, not keep it under review. 7/

. @keir_starmer should also stop waffling about how he’s committed to implementing an independent complaints process, it’s insulting to our intelligence, we know he HAS to, it’s a legal requirement of the @ehrc and NOT A CHOICE 8/
. @Keir_Starmer should also commit to reassessing all the historical cases of antisemitism, which were dismissed by @jeremycorbyn & @Jennieformby1 9/
Additionally there should be some culpability, these antisemites were radicalised by @jeremycorbyn's Labour, right now if they are removed from the party that’s all that Starmer cares about, .... 10/
but they were groomed by Corbyn’s Labour and now they spill their bile unhindered by being constrained by @UKLabour Party rules. The same applies to those who were groomed by the fan club of Corbyn but were never members
Just a word to acknowledge this happened would suffice.11/

Anyway enough of our waffling and we need to get back to the coal face, whilst all this has been going on our activist and friends have reported more than a dozen antisemites to @UKLabour in a week, based on our info. 12/
Unlike others who have been vicariously claiming our work and others for themselves, we are committed to eradicating labour of #LabourAntisemitism & not just chatting nonsense on SM & in the media. 13/End.
