Collection of labour member antisemitic social media posts

Examples of Labour members antisemitism.

We have collated here some examples of antisemitic social media posts by people who are (or appear to be) Labour Party members. We have done this because there are still people who insist that there is no antisemitism in the Labour Party, or who demand to see evidence of it.

In doing this, we are not suggesting that there is no antisemitism in other parties (there is). We are also not asserting that everyone who posts antisemitic material does so in the knowledge that it is antisemitic or is motivated by hatred of Jews.

But as socialists and Labour supporters, we are concerned to rid Labour of this poison, and in the first place to encourage members to accept that it exists and is a genuine problem.

Labour Mayoral candidate suspended

Two labour counsil candidates under investigation

A few posts from Robin Scott who was very upset to have been accused by the Labour party of antisemitism so resigned in protest:

Doctor Fred is a Labour supporter (member?) who things Jews have a duel loyalty. Classic antisemitic trope.

The charmer who posted this is a member of Darlington CLP.

The Rothschilds – Truth and Fiction

by Barnaby Marder with contributions from Dan Jacobs Those who are on the left, use social media and have friends with whom they interact on social media will in all likelihood have seen a number of conspiracy theories referred to or supported from time to time, though this of course isn’t just confined to the left. Some of these have no connection to Jewish people and have no antisemitic intent (perhaps the best-known are the countless ones about the assassination of John F.Kennedy, and the death of Princess Diana). Others, however, do. They usually fall under the subset of conspiracies known as ‘New World Order’ conspiracy. Of these, the one in the most widespread circulation is the theory that the Rothschild family owns all the central banks in the Western world including the Federal Reserve, and that they are responsible for many of the world’s wars. Here, we examine the actual history and activities of the family, and try to separate the truth about the family from the

Smears, lies and Blairites - the cry of the 'deniers' of antisemitism

By Dan Jacobs Those of us on the left who identify antisemitism within the Labour party, stand against it and report it are inevitably faced with a barrage of accusations from being a 'smearer' to a 'paid zionist stooge'. I call these accusers 'deniers' as a way of easily identifying them. There are different ways in which antisemitism expresses itself on the left, which has a different flavour to other forms of antisemitism. In my experience here are some of the most common types. a. through a complete lack of understanding of what antisemitism is, someone can think they're not antisemitic but propagate antisemitic ideas. One example is found in the world of conspiracy, followers of which seems to have an unhealthy amount of overlap with people on the left and the right. A large number of conspiracy theories originate as antisemitism , including Rothschild-related conspiracies, conspiracies about global control, 9/11 conspiracies and many more

On Neturei Karta

We want to do our best to explain about some groups, people and terms which sometimes crop up in discussions about anti-Semitism and related topics. First, we thought we'd say a little about Neturei Karta, some of whose members are pictured here. In case you're not familiar with us at Socialists Against Anti-Semitism, we are an avowedly left-wing group, we do not identify as a Zionist group, and we are in support of a Palestinian state, not in the distant future but immediately. However, we are strong critics of anyone on the left or elsewhere who uses any form of anti-Semitism to further their argument. Neturei Karta's name means "gates of the city" in Aramaic. It was a split-off from the Agudat Israel party, dating from 1938. Basically, they are ultra-Orthodox Jews who believe that a state of Israel may only be justly formed when the Jewish Messiah has come, and that the foundation of the present State of Israel was sinful and blasphemous according to
