Oh I knew he was going to be facing exactly the problems he's facing from the moment he won his first leadership election. That was always a gimme. And yes it was always obvious the Israel lobby and its lackeys in the establishment media would be driving it all.Did you ever think Corbyn was gonna get an easy ride? I mean the only way that old Labour militants now dominate the centre of the party/shadow government is because Labour changed the way their leader was elected, radically. A centrist like Kinnock used to get enough flak from the right wing press, Corbyn is a gift to them, and the conservative party! Not that I disagree with his views, but I hate the victimology of the Corbyn/Momentum crowd. And so what Israeli lobbyists want to influence politics, there are all sorts of lobby's, as long the rules are adhered to, then that's democracy. Its up to the left wing lobbyists/political groups to push their agenda. I watched Newsnight the day after the latest Israeli massacre, I didn't notice any bias towards Israel or Palestine.
But apart from the fact that the interests of a foreign state should not influence British politics in such an obvious way, I'm pissed off that anyone could believe Corbyn is at fault in terms of this anti-Semitism shit. Which is not to say he doesn't have faults; he does, I'm not a blind disciple, but anti-Semitism is not one of them.
Yet some believe all the crap..
EDIT: If you watch the BBC enough you'll see an obvious pro-Israel bias. Very obvious.
