Anti-Semitism revelations has led to Labour being resoundingly rejected by Jewish communities at the ballot box

In Barnet, which has a Jewish population of 15%, the highest of any council in the country, Labour were humiliated and the Tories secured the result of the night. Turnout in Golders Green was an incredible 70%.

In the Kensal ward in Salford, which has a Jewish population of 40%, the highest of any ward in the country, the Tories took it from Labour.

In the Pilkington Park ward in Bury, which has a Jewish population of around 25%, there was a huge swing from Labour to the Tories, who won by 700 votes.

During two years of campaigning journalism on this issue we broke story after story showing Labour had a serious anti-Semitism problem. Corbyn and his allies could have recognised the problem and dealt with it. Instead they accused us of smears. The Jewish Chronicle reports that it isn’t just Jews who were horrified by our anti-Semitism revelations, and that non-Jews joined in what they are calling a “mass protest vote” against Corbyn. The story cut through to the public – it is no coincidence that, following two years of Guido’s stories, anti-Semitism has become the Tories’ main attack line against Labour. Jewish Labour members and moderate Labour readers who are not normally sympathetic to Guido’s editorial line have privately thanked us for acting as a pro bono Labour Party compliance unit. The Corbynistas could have listened, instead their anti-Semitism scandal has come home to roost…

One sidenote: today’s result in Barnet destroys Jewish Voice for Labour's attempt to sow division and pretend that Jews aren't worried by Labour antisemitism. It shows that the Board of Deputies and JLC were absolutely right to claim they spoke for mainstream Jewish community, and were right to call a demonstration in March in Parliament Square. Because Barnet voters – Jew and non-Jew alike – have also now said Enough is Enough.

For Corbyn and his allies, however, the only response is one of wilful deafness. Antisemitism has only ever been a political crisis to be neutralised, not a serious issue to be examined. That’s why he shrugs his shoulders when asked to act. That’s why we will never see genuine action rather than words – because he is literally incapable of acting. To do so would require Mr Corbyn to challenge the very hard left mindset that has been with him since he first began to think about politics. He cannot do that, just as he cannot challenge his closest allies.

As Barnet shows, the real tragedy of the Corbynite takeover of Labour is that so many decent people who would normally vote Labour are now effectively disenfranchised.

For any voting blocs foolish enough to sell themselves into collective slavery, usury and servitude under their Tory and Corporatist overlords, by falling for the propaganda and proselytising lies from special interest media sources and lobbyists...

In the long run, they will reap the rewards of their short-sightedness, apathy, stupidity and dogmatic stubbornness..

It is often said that people "get thr government that they deserve".  It's just bad luck, then, for those many individuals who don't deserve those bad governments..

Collective slavery?

Come again?

They clearly made a very loud and vocal protest over the fact, that Labour has been overtaken by the Far left, who are blatantly hateful in the extreme, espcially towards Jews.

They like me, do not want to vote Tory and I wont vote for the Tories, but what is the alternative?

Labour under socialist extremists?

No thank you and hence why I was glad to see the Liberals doing well and why next general election. I will no doubt vote for the new centrist party

The fact is, people are waking up to the nightmare that Corbynism would bring to this country. Labour in reality did poorly, espcially after the Windrush scandal, a fiasco by the Tories.

To vote Corbyn, would be a vote for socialist slavery
