So there is anti-Semitism in the Labour Party then? on 18:28 - Apr 3 by Darran
It was a disgusting post Lisa. Way below the belt. An apology should be issued.
Actually it was a post that sums up the whole problem.
Corbyn supporters screaming at those who are not and taking the moral highground in an absence of facts, just because.
The same is happening on the other side, with right wing commentators and press that have absolutely no concern about anti semitism usually suddenly taking offence.
UK politics is absolutely f*cked.

I couldn’t agree more but there are a lot of people on here pretending to be left wing.

Yup, you got me.
I mean I guess my Jewish wife and kids aren't really Jewish then, guess no sympathy or empathy there whatsoever.
You'd have to be a blithering idiot to claim Corbyn has handled this well.
The people complaining about the very many examples of anti-semitism within Labour which Momentum and Corbyn accept exist are precisely the people Corbyn should have met if for no other reason than to protect Corbyn from any accusations. He won't have learnt much of the very real problem by talking to people Labour leaning, who claim it's all a smear.
Didn't know about your wife and kids being Jewish, fair enough, you got me too. As for Corbyn's handling of the whole thing he's damned whatever he does. I'm pretty sure though that he'd meet with any of the aggrieved groups but has there been a firm invitation to meet from any of them. Are these groups really serious about meeting him ? Or are they happier to keep attacking him (in a political sense)?

Who gets to decide who the acceptable jews are?
I’d take a wild stab at a group of anarcho-communists who happily call for the destruction of the state of Israel not being the ideal choice of dinner guests for most Jewish folk out there, Hump.
Call me Mr Picky if you like.
An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it.

When mainstream Jewish organisations have repeatedly identified and reported incidents of anti-semitism, who do you think a sensible ( "acceptable" ) group for Corbyn to meet are -
a) The mainstream groups
or
b) an extreme fringe group who claim it's all a smear.
If you're genuinely serious about dealing with the situation, you meet those complaining even if you tend to agree or not. Meeting with a group claiming it's all a smear against you aren't going to help you understand the problem.

Religion just causes arguments. We can all laugh and joke about C.O.E., Catholics etc. But Muslims and Jews we can't. Why?

I actually agree with you on the whole issue Bluey, I'm just amused by the idea of "good" Jews and "bad" Jews, depending on whether they agree with you, obviously.
And I don't mean you personally.
Personally I've come to the conclusion that JC is as thick as pigshit.

That last sentence - that conclusion is becoming inescapable. Add the adjective to the people advising him as well. Or he could be just trolling.

Personally think the whole "good", "bad" Jews concept was just thrown out there to muddy the waters on the issue.

Basic, simplistic Marxist thinking that has spread through society.
Big = bad Small = good
Catholics/Christianity is seen as the religion of the land...a majority you may say (big). Islam and Judaism are seen as religions of minorities (small). We can laugh at the big but must protect the small.
Men = power (big) Women = lack of power (small)
White = big Black = small
Straight = big Gay = small
We can or must treat these big/small groups differently if we are ever to get justice in society. And yet still claim we want all people to be treated equally. It's all bullshit.
Good luck, Mr Cooper

Just treat everyone equal and there's no problems. It's quite simple really.
