The aggressive purge of Jews from the Labour Party under the repressive rule of @Keir_Starmer marches on.
I haven't seen a sustained campaign of overt anti-Semitism quite like the effort of Labour centrists to create lists of Good Jews & Bad Jews and purge the latter. https://twitter.com/DoubleDownNews/status/1334480600946929667

So many people who purport to care about free speech, free discourse, "cancel culture," weaponization of bigotry accusations for repressive ends, etc. have a huge blind spot - due to fear or conviction - when it comes to the cynical use of anti-Semitism claims to silence dissent.
There is, indeed, massive anti-Semitism in UK Labour. It comes from the Blairites & centrists who have cynically weaponized it to silence critics and now purge dissenting Jews. It's been going on since @angelasmithmp created her infamous list of Bad Jews: https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/981113822969810954
If you're someone who claims to abhor "cancel culture" and the weaponization of bigotry accusations to silence dissent and enforce conformity, I urge you to watch the @DoubleDownNews video in that first tweet about what's being done to leftist Jews in Labour. It's repugnant.
Still more Jews being purged from the Labour Party by @Keir_Starmer and his repressive allies. That anti-Semitism is embedded in the leadership of the current Labour Party and its Blairite wing is beyond doubt. They’re just casually and gleefully purging Jews. https://twitter.com/DerbyChrisW/status/1334505478563487745
The current iteration of the Labour Party is declaring itself not only overtly hostile to leftists but also any Jews who demand the right to think for themselves. If systemic purges of Jews from the Party isn’t anti-Semitism, I do not know what is: https://twitter.com/jsternweiner/status/1334509740236419074
