@ZackPolanski You didn’t add “the Zionists” to your list of who to blame. Has the Green Party had a policy change?

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@BenJamal48 @StopTheHate_UK Please provide your evidence that these things are a feature of STH demonstrations. Having seen many of them, I believe that what you say here is largely factually incorrect.

@thebarcouncil This statement is not thought out and should be deleted. It suggests that counsel are free to ignore judicial direction on the basis of fearless representation of clients. It cannot be the BC’s position that this is correct, ignoring duty to the court and the right of appeal.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@MichaelRosenYes @JustMariTine @TheGreenParty @ZackPolanski But you are the one repeatedly referring to it, not me. Anyway, this has now become so childish that it no longer has any purpose, if it ever did.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@Itmustbetues @MichaelRosenYes @JustMariTine @TheGreenParty @ZackPolanski I feel pretty safe adopting the view of the government’s independent reviewer of terrorism legislation who said that the marches are incubators of antisemitism. Sounds like a pretty solid justification to me.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@MichaelRosenYes @JustMariTine @TheGreenParty @ZackPolanski Neither did I. The monarch did. You are the one repeatedly raising it. Not me. Even KCs are allowed to have views.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@Frcola1 @JustMariTine @MichaelRosenYes @TheGreenParty @ZackPolanski I don’t understand what you are saying. I’m not Israeli. I’m not responsible for what it does. But the Green Party is the Green Party and when its candidates say antisemitic things, it is responsible for that.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@Frcola1 @JustMariTine @MichaelRosenYes @TheGreenParty @ZackPolanski But members have been arrested for antisemitism and there are reports of terrible things being said about Jews. I do not of course literally think the policy of the Green Party is to put Jews in gas chambers. But I do think there is a real antisemitism risk if they are elected.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@MichaelRosenYes @JustMariTine @TheGreenParty @ZackPolanski I can watch videos of the Nuremberg Rallies, Michael, and be very sure that there are plenty of antisemites there, but I don’t know the vast majority of their names.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@MichaelRosenYes @JustMariTine @TheGreenParty @ZackPolanski I can provide plenty of evidence because I have been on the majority of the marches Michael. But if I said to you that Mr Smith and Mrs Jones were there and they were “useful idiots” that wouldn’t further the debate would it? It wouldn’t be the “evidence” you are looking for.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@MichaelRosenYes @JustMariTine @TheGreenParty @ZackPolanski Then presumably neither should I.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@MichaelRosenYes @JustMariTine @TheGreenParty @ZackPolanski Did you respond to my question about why you want me to do that Michael?

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@JustMariTine @MichaelRosenYes @TheGreenParty @ZackPolanski The Green Party has a serious problem with antisemitism within its ranks. So what that the leader of the party is Jewish? His religion is irrelevant. His actions matter. What is he doing to deal with the problem? Very little it seems.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@MichaelRosenYes I’ll scrape the tatters of my career off the floor after this discussion and hopefully carry on.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@Drapetomaniacle @MichaelRosenYes Can you read? Try it.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@Wake_YourselfUp @Whatislif3 @MichaelRosenYes No. Click on the link. I’m not trying to persuade you. I don’t care what you think.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@Wake_YourselfUp @Whatislif3 @MichaelRosenYes Some sample “evidence” for you. Now multiple that by thousands, week in, week out.

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@Wake_YourselfUp @Whatislif3 @MichaelRosenYes https://t.co/hI9BdMeCY4

[Jonathan Cohen KC @mlearnedfriend]

@MichaelRosenYes Are you asking me to call you an idiot Michael? Is that the point of this? I know you love a pointless complaint to my Regulatory body. Is that the purpose of this futile request?
