So no hope from Jeremy either?

So are all Irish Catholics to be abused because of their " terrorist " outrages on our streets? To abuse someone because of their fath, whatever that faith is, is never justifiable. My muslim cousins are peace loving family men . They do not support terrorists or any violence for that matter but are tarred with the same brush as those who do.and when headlines scream out Islamaphobic headlines it hurts.

jura you and your WOWS.

Instances of Islamophobia have come about ( as if I need to say this) because of Muslim terrorist outrages here in the UK .

Plus what we hear from extremist groups preaching hate against the West in certain mosques.Plus things like sharia law, grooming gangs and so on and so on.
I did not say that Islamaphobia is right, but gave good reasons that it exists.
What have Jewish people in the UK done? Nothing! Therefore all the anti-semitism around doesn’t have any reasons to encourage it.

Treatment of women could be a reason, sharia law could be another, grooming of underage girls yet another - just a thought of course!!!!!!

lemon 'Islamophobia may well be rife in society today......but there is a reason for that that is screamingly obvious.
There is no reason at all for anti-semitism.'

WOW - and I won't even begin to address this, for sure. It says a lot about you for sure wow

The LP under Corbyn’s leadership have not dealt with it well in fact hardly at all.It’s allowed it to proliferate.

Islamophobia may well be rife in society today......but there is a reason for that that is screamingly obvious.
There is no reason at all for anti-semitism.

JC is still going on about 'soft Brexit' - cake and eat with unicorns on top. I despair- truly. And feel politically homeless.

POGS rather than just screaming 'prove it' all the time why not disprove it with your evidence?! That would then prove that your opinion might be based on evidence. It is a 2 way street!

and anti muslim from just about every community
my experience is anti muslim comments trump the rest of objectionable prejudice currently

And anti Muslim from the Jewish community.

I am not Jewish, or Muslim. I have heard many anti semitic comments, many of them from people who wouldn't see themselves as prejudiced
The same goes for islamophobia, yes the comments are all around us
I've also heard many anti semitic comments from members of the Muslim community

Hate or discrimination based on a person being a Jew. And you?

I've explained already- personal experience is not something you can 'prove'. You take me at my word, or you don't. Your choice entirely.

Jura

Then prove it !

You cannot just say something without backing it up with evidence.

Where is your evidence not here say to state ' Islamophobia is rife in the Tory Party, and in some sections of the Labour Party too - but it is never talked about."

It is.

Do you deny the front pages of these papers, and what they are saying/illustrating. They have not been made up- just collected and pasted- just as they were presented to the public. Islamophobic.

Jura

Your link takes me to a site that is explicit in it's intention to attack certain papers and I would not promote nor give money to such a politically motivated sitebut I understand it suits your politics.

It does not answer your accusation and I find it it as useful as a chocolate teapot to understand what ' Factual Evidence ' you have to state:-

" Exactly- Islamophobia is rife in the Tory Party, and in some sections of the Labour Party too - but it is never talked about. "

stopfundinghate.info/

is a good place to start.

Many sites - all for there to find. Figuring hate speech plastered all over the front pages of the tabloid press, again and again, over a very long period of time. None anti-semitic- but a huge number islamophobic. The Sun, the DM, and others too. Those front pages have not been doctored- just taken directly from those newspapers- I am quite sure you can't possibly not have seen them.

PECS how would you define anti semitism ?

It would be an idiot who said that racism did not exist within the membership of any large organisation. Of course it does. What matters is how any organisation deals with accusations of such behaviour. Neither of the 2 main political parties can claim the moral high ground here.
I do think there was a deliberate attempt to undermine JCs leadership using anti-Semitism which, in my opinion was not justified.

Jura

"There is a site that shows front page after front page on the subject. You can search for them if you want to."
----

Why do I need to search? You made a statement that so far you cannot back up with factual evidence.

As for ' there is a site ' what site? I am careful what ' sites' I rely on for information and some sites posters have linked GN posters to are beyond dubious .

At least I answered POGS, unlike so many here.

There is a site that shows front page after front page on the subject. You can search for them if you want to.

Conversations with relatives, neighbours, people in general who express blatant and at times virulent islamophobia- I just cannot share. Nor would I want to. And as you say, it does not mean it does not exist.

Jura

" Honestly, no. The tabloid press is of course full of it. And otherwise I am talkinga about my own experiences, with relatives and acquaintances, neighbours, who belong to both Cons and Labs."
--

" Honestly no."

Then why make statements that you cannot follow through.

"The tabloid press is of course full of it."

Then surely you could provide factual evidence.

I have experienced both anti Semitism and Islamaphobia though I am neither Jewish nor Muslim. Ignorant people assume, when they know where my father grew up, that I am one or the other. This has on occasions meant people have made racist comments towards me. As a child I witnessed my grandmother being racially abused. Having close family friends who are Jewish and relatives who are Muslim ..I am aware that both receive abuse. One is not worse than another. Wherever it is it must be challenged. Equating anti- Zionism with anti- Semitism is like saying anti- Saudi is anti - Muslim. We can be against a dictatorship or a government but support the citizens of those countries.

Honestly, no. The tabloid press is of course full of it. And otherwise I am talkinga about my own experiences, with relatives and acquaintances, neighbours, who belong to both Cons and Labs.

Jura

" POGS, no I am not denying it exists in the LP- I am saying that many I know in LP are anti zionism- and that that is very different."

Pleased to hear it but just because you haven't seen something does not mean it does not exist .

I also asked you another question.:-

Exactly- Islamophobia is rife in the Tory Party, and in some sections of the Labour Party too - but it is never talked about."

Can you put forward factual evidence of your statement .
