Labour Leadership Result and media hysteria

Within minutes of the Labour Party Leadership election results being announced, the rabid fascist right wing media release their name calling scaremongering excrement reminiscent of the days of Thatcher. The first out of the starting blocks was the obnoxious Adam Boulton (of the Alastair Campbell interview fame) closely followed by the lass from Wigan, Kay Burley. (The “Sack Kay Burley” campaign on Facebook should have Adam Boulton added to its aims.) How Sky News manages to continue masquerading as a balanced news programme remains a mystery to us all. Perhaps the fact that it is part of the Rupert Murdoch media empire has something to do with its biased presenters and story lines.
The BBC news coverage was not much better, with various presenters mentioning the “Red Ed“ label. Today (Sunday 26th September 2010) it is the turn of the Sunday Papers to seek to compete with each other for the title of “Who can produce the most hysterical headline and associated story content”. The sad, and worrying thing is that many people in this country actually believe what they see on television and read in the papers. .

Mandelson triggers Labour Civil War

The tentacles of Mandelson again casting their evil shadows. This discredited manipulator should find himself some dark recess in the House of Lords and spend his time dreaming about being Tony's Goblin . He has already done enough damage to anything he touches. I have no axe to grind in respect of the Leadership election, as my preffered candidate has already withdrawn. However, for Mandelson, one third of the biggest disaster ever to strike the Labour movement, to seek again to manipulate the outcome of the election and the direction of the Party, is odious in the extreme.

Call for a Full Inquest

At the risk of being labeled a "Conspiracy Theorist", it seems to me that there are more questions to be answered now then there were at the time. To all those who are convinced that there was no conspiracy, and to all those in the establishment who keep telling the rest of us that there was no cover up (and those responsible for concealing evidence for the next 70 years) simply answer the questions and the whole matter can be brought to a close. Let's have a full enquiry now.

Illegal settlements

Once again, the Israeli's demonstrate that they have no interest in resolving the Palestinian/Israeli situation. No matter what lip service they may give to settling the issues, their actions reveal only self interest, arrogance, greed and hypocrisy.

"broad movement of active resistance"

Not many people listened to Tony Benn in the 70's and 80's, and that ultimately led to the disaterous New Labour clique. Not many people listened in the 90's onwards, and now we have the disaterous ConDem Tweedledumb and TweedleDumber pantomime.
Apathy will destroy this country if we do not believe that direct action can make a difference. I agree with Tony (to borrow a phrase)

criticism of Israel is not synonomous with being anti semetic

Another Israeli peabrain with a chip on each of his shoulders about being Jewish. When will these people accept that criticism of Israel is not synonomous with being anti semetic. There are many reasonable Israeli's who do not expect the rest of humanity to have a collective guilty conscience for another millenium. He, Peres, conveniently forgets that in 1947 aged 24 he joined the Haganah, a terrorist organisation closely linked to Irgun and others, and was responsible for personnel and arms purchases. These two organisations were primarilly responsible for the terrorist attacks against British personnel during the British Mandate in Palestine.
Not really qualified to criticise is he.
