Owen Jones spoke at a JLM event even after it was revealed that its director, Ella Rose, had gone direct from working for the virulently racist far-right Netanyahu administration to the JLM.
For many on left, Palestinians are still Unpeople. Asa Winstanley is a noble exception.
Take heart, this is what a mobilised grassroots movement can achieve. Opposition in parliament will be irrelevant for the next five years after the metropolitan bubble merchants gifted BoJo an 80 seat majority.
Resistance must be driven by communities.

Can’t we make Evo Morales next Labour leader?
Most successful socialist leader of his generation globally. At a loose end in Argentina.
Broke off relations w/ Israel when it was bombing Gaza to pieces in 2009, and kicked out US ambassador the year before.
He’s what we need.
Here's why I wanted to disengage from Twitter. Last night, when on a bus, I saw a tweet from someone who, a year and a half ago, said hi and sat with me and my friend in a Hackney pub with their very sweet dog. They seemed miserable, I tweeted something to try and cheer them up.
I don't understand why MPs get to be gatekeepers in leadership competition? I'd much prefer for ALL candidates to be considered by @UKLabour members. One member one vote.
Rebecca, Keir, SEE HOW Bernie Sanders, a Jew, is facing a tsunami of false allegations of AS because he has temerity to stand up for the human rights of Palestinians
He is standing firm
If you allow yourselves to be bulled by @BoardofDeputies, you are making a terrible mistake
One night of anti-government street protests in Iran, thousands of miles away, gets more coverage in UK & the ´punditocracy’ more excited than over a year of anti-governments street protests in France, just across the Channel. Isn’t that revealing?
The two front runners for Labour leadership, Starmer and RLB, have both signed up to all of these.
Look at 5. Anyone who supported Chris Williamson, Marc Wadsworth, et al, will now be suspended from the party.
It’s over guys and gals. I already left. Time to start something new
I have several medical conditions that mean getting a traditional job isn't plausible.
I can be housebound with my FND. My anxiety can flare up. I have Crohn's, a blood disorders, I can lose my motor function & more.
Twitter is my social interaction. Sorry if that upsets you.
On Universal Credit I've once again started losing weight.
My hair is falling out in clumps again, my teeth and gums are in agony as a result of vitamin deficiencies, and my anxiety is all over the shop.
All because they hold the power of whether you can afford to eat or not.
Just watched the horrendous clip of Keir Starmer responding to a perfectly legitimate question about him employing a private healthcare lobbyist. "I won't tolerate questions about my staff!" he bellows, like a total twat. This whole situation is even worse than I'd imagined.
Jeremy Corbyn is a lifelong anti racist campaigner. He is anti war and pro equality. The media wrongly accused him of being anti-Semitic.
The blairites helped the media to smear him and damage the party. This is one of the reasons why we lost the general election
Someone told me it is never a good idea to drink then a tweet
Goodnight. I hope i wake up tomorrow and we are at least one step closer to a better country
