Andrew Feinstein served under Nelson Mandela as an MP in South Africa.
He's now running to unseat Keir Starmer over Labour's support for the genocide in Gaza.
"It's time to teach Starmer a lesson in his own backyard", writes @andrewfeinstein.

Breaking:
Seven Labour councillors have just resigned in Slough, accusing the Labour Party of institutional racism.
In their resignation letter, they cite the deselection of Faiza Shaheen and the treatment of Diane Abbott as well as Gaza.
https://t.co/oU5d3KigTJ
Where is the outcry and solidarity with Faiza Shaheen from normally outspoken "anti-racists" and "feminists" like Margaret Hodge, Luciana Berger, Ruth Smeeth, Jess Phillips and Harriet Harman?
Where are their demands for Starmer to address the concerns of the "Muslim community"?
Great to see front bench Labour MPs more upset by the "violence of a milkshake" than they are by the sale of British weapons to Israel, used to kill thousands upon thousands of children.
When Starmer visited Liverpool and got given his pedigree from the indefatigable Audrey White:
“I don’t know how you’ve got the guts to come to this City.”
Liverpool won’t forget that Starmer writes for The Sxn.
Vote Greens, SNP, Plaid or Independent Left.
Do not vote Labour.

There isn’t a candidate standing in this election with a more wonderful endorsement than this, given by Len Loach, to community nurse, Wavertree’s Ann San . Ann is the kind of person we want to represent us, hard working and principled, a socialist committed to a fairer more peaceful world who will fight to her last breath for our NHS.
Farage dog whistles
Sunak dog whistles
Starmer dog whistles
Vote for a candidate who does not dog whistle
In England that would be a good left-independent candidate or a Green candidate
