    To be honest, a 39 yr old radar guided air to air missile with no warhead or propulsion system that’s designed for a plane that no longer flies would be good to hide in just in case someone chucked something at you.  I’d be more worried about the machine guns. 

    Ah, the machine gun flurries?

    We’re great at getting in to promising positions then pissing it away patting ourselves on the back for a job well done, instead of realising that the job has really only just begun.

     

    Feels like the exact same scenario and the exact same mistakes from when we were last European Champions. 

     

    Being The Champions of Europe is the base camp, not the summit - this is where you lay the foundations for an era of domination.

    Chris Williamson speaking at a festival in London last week.

    We the undersigned, all Jews, are writing in support of Chris Williamson and to register our dismay at the recent letter organised by Tom Watson, and signed by parliamentary Labour party and House of Lords members, calling for his suspension (Anger over return of MP who said Labour was ‘too apologetic’ over antisemitism, 28 June).

    Chris Williamson did not say that the party had been “too apologetic about antisemitism”, as has been widely misreported. He correctly stated that the Labour party has done more than any other party to combat the scourge of antisemitism and that, therefore, its stance should be less apologetic. Such attacks on Jeremy Corbyn’s supporters aim to undermine not only the Labourparty’s leadership but also all pro-Palestinian members.

    The mass media have ignored the huge support for Chris both within and beyond the Labour party. Support that includes many Jews. The party needs people like him, with the energy and determination to fight for social justice. As anti-racist Jews, we regard Chris as our ally: he stands as we do with the oppressed rather than the oppressor. It should also be noted that he has a longer record of campaigning against racism and fascism than most of his detractors.

    The Chakrabarti report recommended that the party’s disciplinary procedures respect due process, favour education over expulsion and promote a culture of free speech, yet this has been abandoned in practice. We ask the Labour party to reinstate Chris Williamson and cease persecuting such members on false allegations of antisemitism.
