    I'm comfortable about the law investigating any such complaints. That has nothing to do with my affiliation to the Labour Party. I'm also a member of the Musicians Union. If any members are responsible for anti semitic acts I hope that they are dealt with. To try & make a political point about this is childish, as it is clear that the far right have far more to answer for in this regard & they have infiltrated the conservative party in an attempt to get us out of the EU. Arron Banks is facing criminal prosecution over breaking electoral law. Don't throw John Stones in the Glasshouse.

    The Tories are the Devil on here. Along with brexiteers. No accusation necessary.

    I struggle to believe just how bad both of the main parties are at the minute. The Tories are a mess so you would expect the Labour party to have an unassailable lead in the opinion polls but they haven't because they're also a complete mess. It's a sad indictment of our political system.

    The idea of posting on here is to debate.

    There's not a lot to debate in your post above.

    Do you want to have another go, and explain what you mean?

    You seem to believe I was replying to you? Do you want to have a go at being a little less condescending maybe?

    What he means is that because I'm not part of the Corbyn love-in my political views are obvious.

    It’s not about Jeremy Corbyn, this isn’t the daily mail. My OP to you was based on past conversations where you’ve clearly stated you support the conservatives, I see you’ve changed that stance but to tell someone they’ve no idea where your past political views have been when we’ve been reading them is a bit daft

    Sorry.

    You weren't having a private conversation on a public forum though.

    Anyway, I'm interested to hear how you might respond in more depth to Mr Mario, beyond simply describing him in terms that he might not like.

    (Is that less condescending?)

    Like I said in the OP, I do believe an investigation is needed if there is an accusation. Labour, hopefully will be cleared as I'm a Labour man.
    However I do believe the accusers are the people who support and benefit from the Israeli culling of Palestine. Which Corbyn is completely against. Their actions are a blatant disregard for human rights and humanity itself and I'll support any punishment of the State of Israel if there was to be any. Now, if that makes me antisemitic then slap the bloody cuffs on me.

    One thing I would say is no one has commented on the OP's remarks on the DUP? When it comes to religious hatred & homophobic views they are kings & they are propping up Theresa May's shabby government.

    The reality is that the first past the post system is outdated. Neither parliamentary party is unified in any way. If we had PR the parties would break up. Why are we still sticking to this stupid system?

    I'm his officious bystander. Not that he needs one. Perhaps a debate can be had some other day?

    I have supported some Tory policy but equally I have also supported some Labour policy. I honestly base my vote on policy at the time, not who my Dad voted for or because of the political leanings of the town where I live. I am a classic floating voter who has no political anchor right now.
