Just been Yougov'd. One of their questions was 'Do you think Corbyn is right to stand in Islington North? Although quite how relevant the opinion of someone living in a leafy blue wall seat is I'm not sure.

In the seemingly plausible (albeit probably not the most likely) scenario that Corbyn wins this and Pete Wishart loses his race, Corbyn will be the MP with the longest continuous spell in opposition. Is Gregory Campbell standing down then?

Anyone claiming racism in Labour meetings needs to be more straightforward and state exactly what happened. Where. And when. There was lots of exagerration, lies, bullshit and horseshit used to undermine and destroy the left. no, that’s a racist comment. You’re saying you disbelieve Jews who have suffered racism because you think we are liars. That’s exactly what happened to me in a CLP meeting. You can do one Guaranteed that norflondon's Twitter bio includes the hashtag #itwasascam. This is what makes them antisemites though. All allegations of racism are given credence, except when it's racism against Jews - the oldest racism on the planet - and then it's "We need more evidence" and "You're exaggerating" and "You're playing the victim card".

I have no black people in my family. I wasn't aware that that was a sign that I was a nasty racist.

"Batman" is most probably a nasty racist. V very likely No black people in his family. V few true black friends. Makes up a lot of crap and accuses others of racism, just because they say that the "anti semitism" crisis in Labour was overstated by oponents of the then leadership. Full of f shit! I think your slip is showing.

Your post is probably going to be the winner for the garbage post of the year. Your spouting rubbish, Batman racist, don't make me laugh, from his posts i'd guess he probably has less racial prejudices than me. You do realise Batman is Jewish so will experience anti-semitism first hand, or are you too thick to realise even that? Take your blinkers off for a few minutes, please.

Surprised the Greens would put a candidate up against him - I guess that was decided before JC said he would stand. I still (and hope) JC wins though.

The comments are critical but further analysis/polling(?) is promised:- The Greens and Corbyn are fishing in the same pond so he may well squeeze the Green vote

After all the EHRC stated clearly that it is acceptable to state just that!

Batman is a friend of mine. If you think you can come swanning into this forum only two days ago and immediately start accusing good and decent people of being “racist” then you can fuck off and keep offing until we can’t see your toenails any more.

How great could the offence have been if you don't remember who caused it?
Really, this forum is one of the few places where activists from all parties come together constructively to discuss and analyse elections. I'm sure there's better uses of this platform than fighting.

Is Gregory Campbell standing down then? That depends on your definition of opposition, due to the confidence and supply deal in 2017.

The sort of article that's rare in the main stream media. Worth a look: "Both feted and gilded, Keir Starmer and Rishi Sunak are two sides of the same rotten politics" It's one of Chakrabortty's worst. Starmer is not the privileged character Chakrabortty's desperate to portray him as, and the rest of it is the same sort of sub-Corbynite crap he's been churning out for years.
