Oli Dugmore brilliantly articulated the disgust that was felt by many people over Peter Mandelson being appointed US ambassador. It must suck to know that Tom McTague (Oli's editor in chief at the New Statesman) is, in Mandelson's own words, "My/Morgan's friend".

@ZackPolanski is to sue the @Telegraph for publishing an article called “Zack Polanski is demanding a list of Jews. How sinister.”
This brings to mind @PhilipProudfoot’s successful libel action against #Eastenders actress Tracy Ann Oberman.
@owenjonesjourno
Even if Livingstone's comment was false (it wasn't), it would be a comment about Zionists, not Jews. Mann's accusations of 'antisemitism' conflates the two, an antisemitic canard.
But that's just a fact, of course, and facts have never mattered in this 'debate'.

One day, everyone will have always been against this.
More actual evidence of the depravity of this Labour Government, how they conduct themselves and the rot that runs throughout the entire party.
There's a straight line from the dirty tricks war on Corbynism and independent journalism via Labour Together to the ban on Cenk Uygur and Hasan Piker. Same personnel, methods & intent:
raising the risks for speaking truth to power on Israel.
Includes new documents from the Labour Together/APCO project to target me and other journalists for exposing Morgan McSweeney and Labour Together's history of unlawful conduct and Mandelsonian dirty tricks.

@tykestakeonit Hodge is a serial tax avoider with all her wealth stashed in Liechtenstein - a tax haven:
Margaret Hodge’s family company paid just 0.01% tax – £163,000 on more than £65m profit.
This needs a public inquiry, and will never get one.
The second part of that is more instructive than the first.
There's no body free of Israeli money to conduct such an inquiry, and no media free of Israeli editorial control to publicise it anyway.
Country's f*cked.

"Burnham declined to describe the catastrophe on the ground in Gaza as a genocide. 'I can’t judge things of that enormity from where I am as mayor of Greater Manchester,' he said.
Why not? Don't you have a phone? Can't you read the UN reports & ICJ?
This "Aw shucks I'm just a smol bean Mayor trying to become PM" shtick about *a genocide* really demeans him and the voting public. Get a fucking backbone.
This tells you all you need to know...
Burnham wouldn't have Corbyn back in the party (if he applied), but he "would like to continue working with Simons," who was a key player in the Mandelson-McSweeney-Starmer project.
Burnham is business as usual. https://t.co/XJ6Hutr4of
"Labour chose to remake itself as the party of genocide over the bodies of Palestinians."
@harriepw calls out Wes Streeting and other Labour politicians who are suddenly crying crocodile tears for Palestine.

Different face. Same policies and behaviours.
Why are Labour MPs and Labour supporters of conscience falling for this trick?
Or am I missing something?
Bezalel Smotrich: "Come live in the West Bank. I hope this incentive will help us bring one million settlers and kill the idea of a Palestinian state."
There are no two sides. There is only the boot and the face. Stop pretending otherwise
