Any thread that brings Hitler into the mix is doomed!

Hitler wasn't brought into the debate, but if you read my posts I was developing the argument about myth. That also answers your question ana

Sorry to cut this short I've just been reminded I'm due at restaurant at 6pm.

Lucky you.??????

Why is any thread about Nazi Germany doomed? How about the 1930s British press? There was the same kind of rhetoric.

Maybe we really are doomed never to learn from history.

Are we supposed to forget about the conditions that gave rise to Nazism ? Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. No one is saying Amber Rudd is a quasi Hitler, just saying her proposal is similar to the early policies of a certain A. Hitler. And as such, strike a chilling note.

I find the Labour Party's lurking anti-Semitism chilling too.

not 'too'

Some people prefer to dig their hands in the sand. I'm actually surprised their nostrils aren't full of sand. Maybe they are, but they breathe trough their mouths.

I find the Labour Party's anti-semiticism very suspicious.

I didn't believe there was anti semitism in the Labour party, now I am unsure, I do object strongly to the Shami debacle, there was the fact an MP who is a Jew suffered that verbal abuse by a momentum member and then the vice chair of momentum - who had been suspended then allowed back in earlier this year- declaring didn't know what the definition of anti semitism was , suspended again , this was all in full view /,knowledge of the public, what is said behind closed doors

Hands in the sand?

Labour's anti-Semitism is very distasteful, don't know about suspicious. Surely you're not denying the evidence?

(to daphnedill)

At one time there were quite a number of Jews in the Labour Party , I just don't recognise the party now , it seems dark and secretive and has attracted some very unsavoury bullies

Don't let facts get in the way of your prejudices Annie there is still a Jewish Labour organisation affiliated to the Labour party you profess to know so much about, www.jlm.org.uk/jlm_rule_change

Do not accuse me of predjuduce please, I do not want the party run by militants and trots, this is based on knowledge of their previous attempts and the damaged they caused in the past.

come the next election trisher we will see if my knowledge which comes from experience proves correct and your googled links proves how misled you have been , sadness is it will be too late

'What is step 4 Trisher ( in your view?)'

Roses asked this. Sorry it's taken so long to respond, Ana. I've been out for dinner.

anti-semitic.

Trisher, sorry I forgot to add, I do have sympathy and understanding of your belief in Corbyn, I too was fooled by him, I just learned much earlier than you, he is not to be trusted

Let's stop turning this once again into a Corbyn discussion. I support him because he has policies I wholeheartedly agree with. You consider them to be unelectable Annie perhaps they are, but as I get older I find I am becoming less and less willing to compromise. I do believe Trident is the biggest and most expensive con ever perpetrated upon the British public and I would get rid of it. I don't think student loans do the job they were supposed to and I do think the housing market should be better regulated. I don't care for personalities, policies matter to me.

I thought the same about it turning into yet another Corbyn thread trisher, not fair on posters . I too think policies are most important , where we differ is I accept a party has to gain power to carry out it's policies, what use is being in oposition , yes verbal battles at PMQ once a week. This didn't stop the bedroom tax did it?

Battling over immigrants will not change the government's stance ,

Would you have said the same to the people who stood together on Cable Street? The threat of extremist right parties is rising everywhere. Those who believe a policy is wrong need to stand and say so, blaming immigrants and foreigners for the state of the economy cannot be considered acceptable. The fact is of course that listing all foreign workers is impossible there are agency staff, temporary staff, casual workers and many others, some would always slip through the radar.
