They have a new leader, Henry Bolton a former Lib Dem candidate who stood in the 2005 election. A former soldier and police officer he seems quite normal on paper, speaks Russian and presently works as a security consultant. The Russian links with Ukip go deeper... They also have a new logo that has been compared to the premier league logo some of the crowd weren't impressed by the lack of the pound sign and booed it's arrival. But reports suggest they were happier when discussing more  non halal and  badger culls and defending the right to blackup when imitating the cool running film characters. 

 

The lack of a pound symbol brought some boos and shouts from the conference floor, but Crowther said it was time to modernise the party’s message in the wake of the Brexit referendum

It would be remiss to mention this without also mentioning that the "far right" anti-Islam runner-up Anne Marie Waters is a former Labour candidate.

 

As you were, folks.

Damn, you're touchy!

 

I reckon the fact that this appalling racist cunt was actually a Labour Parliamentary candidate - twice! - strengthens the Corbyn/Momentum argument for greater local control over the selection of candidates.

Something ironic about 'Clarence' posting a clip of a shit load of Lions. I actually saw that on 'The Poke' yesterday, some classic put downs.

They've missed the cross eyed one!

Isn't there some kind of organisation bringing a case against them for the similarity of the logo to theirs? The Premier League,I think.

Trump ally and Brexit leader Nigel Farage says there’s something Americans should worry about more than Russian meddling: Jews.

 

Farage in a Monday interview singled out the so-called “Jewish lobby” as an overwhelming power in America during a discussion about Russia’s interference in U.S. politics.

 

 

 

“There are other very powerful lobbies in the United States of America, and the Jewish lobby, with its links with the Israeli government, is one of those strong voices,” Farage said on his London-based radio show.

He turned the conversation to Jewish lobbies after a caller had suggested the pro-Israel lobby was as dangerous to the U.S. as the Kremlin.

“That’s a reasonable point,” Farage told the caller.

 

“There are about 6 million Jewish people living in America, so as a percentage it’s quite small, but in terms of influence it’s quite big.”

 

Farage's remarks perpetuate popular and false narratives about a singular “Jewish lobby” operating within the United States and American Jews uniformly lobbying on behalf of Israel.

 

Jewish civil rights groups immediately condemned his comments.

 

“Nigel Farage’s comments about the role of a powerful ‘Jewish lobby’ in America plays into deep-seated anti-Semitic tropes about supposed Jewish control of government,” Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan A. Greenblatt told Newsweek. “This is fuel for white supremacists who exploit and spread conspiracy theories about ‘evil, controlling Jews.’”

 

Conflating a Jewish and Israeli lobby is not only conspiratorial and false, said Greenblatt, but could “have the unintended consequence of encouraging anti-Semites and extremists to exploit them.”

 

 

The largest pro-Israel lobbying group in the United States is Christians United for Israel, which has a large Evangelical base and more than 1 million members overall. Opinion polls show the majority of Americans hold favorable views of Israel.
