TwigletParticipant
Corbyn has spoken out against Hamas…
He has a long history of on-the-record condemnations of individual atrocities against civilians which give the illusion that he is a reasonable human being, yet continues to support or implicitly endorse the ideologies, movements and organisations responsible for the mass-murder of ordinary members of the working class. Empty, disingenuous disconnect
TwigletParticipantWhile Jezza isn’t an antisemite, Morgan is a tosspot of the first order, and the equivalent question should clearly also be being put to politicians defending Israeli terrorism, ‘Socialist’ Corbyn demonstrates once again what a contemptible anti-working class scumbag he is.

The ‘Joint struggle bloc’…struggling for the right to smoke more…TwigletParticipantAgainst the worrying tide of content that has flooded this thread in recent times, which is indistinguishable from the output of the Trot and other natlib-endorsing ‘left’ (some of it, sadly, emanating from Party members) Those who retain and do not deviate from a class focus are to be applauded. YMS’s post on ‘perspective’ is a clear and concise example of this distinct latter attitude . The only Enemy is the class Enemy.
As Almamater rightfully stated, too:
The socialist party must denounce the horrors of wars on both sides of any conflict, but the socialist party should not take sides with any capitalist group, Hamas does not represent the Palestinian workers and poor peoples as well the Israeli government does not represent the workers and the poor of Israel.
TwigletParticipantActually, it’s hard to say for sure!
Shirl was back in the UK in 2006, according to this:
Wiki, however, cites a Jerusalem Post article from a year later claiming she was living in Israel. (the link is dead). She will be 93 later this month.
I think we have a good idea what she’ll be saying about the current situation, though…

Keep an eye out for the imminent Tesco campaign…
…Any SPGBers among the complainants?
TwigletParticipantI should hope not! The Party absolutely should have been present – and should be present at future events in the weeks and months to come – opposing both Palestinian and Israeli nationalism.
TwigletParticipantSo, I take it no Party presence (to put the socialist case against all varieties of nationalism)/leafletting?
TwigletParticipantThe June 1929 Standard states that the required election deposit was a whopping £150!
According to https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/monetary-policy/inflation/inflation-calculator, this sum equated to £9,360.67 in 2018…and was lost if you failed to poll 12.5% of total votes cast (cf £500 and 5%, today).
TwigletParticipantSounds like it was a worthwhile meeting – vaguely regret not having gone myself. What were the responses to the question ‘What makes individuals revolutionary’?..also,forgive my ignorance, but was is a ‘semi-state’?
TwigletParticipantNu, so was it worth the schlep?…What did Keef’s new besties have to say?
