Jeremy Corbyn is slammed for backing 'Iran-supporting propaganda group' run by firebrand leaders who blamed Grenfell on 'Zionists' and say the West is 'the enemy'
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has been criticised over his support of an Iran-supporting campaign group whose leaders have blamed the Grenfell Tower fire on 'Zionists' and praised Ayatollah Khomeini.
The Islamic Human Rights Commission (IHRC), based in north-west London, insists it produces research papers on 'hate crime and discrimination' and is registered to give immigration advice.
But an investigation by The Times published this morning reports a number of alarming comments made by the group's leaders, praising the repressive leadership of Iran and branding the West 'the enemy'.
It comes after a separate report by the thinktank The Henry Jackson Society found the group have received more than £1million from a charity called the IHRC Trust since 2013, including £250,000 in taxpayer-funded gift aid.
In a video published the IHRC in 2010, Jeremy Corbyn is filmed lavishing praise on the group, saying it challenges the idea that human rights are a European idea.
In the video, he says: 'I like the concept that the Islamic Human Rights Commission represents all that's best in Islam concerning the rights of individuals to free expression, to peaceful assembly and the rights of individuals in society.'

From someone who has started a Boris Johnson spam smear thread that, Andy, is bloody absolutely hilarious!
Do you expect to be taken seriously?

Corbyn would be bad, bad, bad for the UK. I know I'm not a legal resident there quite yet, but I would much prefer a level-headed, competent Tory, really.
Better yet would be for the Lib Dems to take over for a while and let Labour do some much-needed housecleaning.

Well unlike you he has served his country and faced the constant threat of his own life and that of his brothers in arms dying.
For you to constantly attack Nicko, as Quill does in the most pathetic way to get under his skin by invoking such made up crap against him. Even more he has defended your very freedoms, you prick. From the threats of the IRA. Shows what a vile little scum bag you really are Andy. To even post a picture of Hitler and claim its Nicko's friends, shows you have lost the plot
If you had an ounce of deceny you would apologise

Sometimes I click on threads and all I see is people getting personal. Can’t some of you debate without resorting to personal attacks?
It’s so childish.

Absolutely agree Eddie. Why WAS I subjected to such riducule and personal abuse because I said I favoured the Lib dems over Labour or Conservatives. I didn't start it, merely retaliated.
It seems certain posters just want this to become the hard Brexit , far right forum,, where opponents are ridiculed and called c u n t s .
Nice place..No wonder so many posters have gone.

Labour £650,000 in red as members desert party
Labour lost more than half a million pounds last year, official figures show, amid fears among its MPs that it is ill-prepared for a general election.
The party suffered a shortfall of £655,000 in 2018, compared with a surplus of £1.45 million the previous year, according to Labour’s annual report.
The loss was caused in part by rising staff numbers and a dip in membership. In August it was revealed that 45,784 people had left the party in the year to December 2018, leaving it with just above 518,000 members.

So I just posted a link By Rachel Riley, who is Jewish and has received death threats for standing up to the extreme left antisemites.
She posted a piece by Ian Austin a former Memeber of the Labour party who left due to the antisemitism
You are calling them hate preachers, now for rightly being critical of Corbyn?
To then call me a hate preacher also for highlighting this?
You are proving more and morew Andy you are a Corbyn and far left extremist defender. As how you can call the above article and comments by Rachel riley hate preaching shows you have lost the plot
You have simple now embarressed yourself and your claims to follow the Liberals has clearly been easily exposed as a lie
You are nothing more than a Corbyn and Momentum drone
I have no doubt you would love to introduce a form of blasphemy in regards to protect against corbnism from criticism. As that is exactly what you are sounding like claiming I am preaching hate, when I offer no words of hate whatsoever

As Jules correctly said yesterday, almost EVERY post Dodgy makes I either about antisemitism or anti Corbynism.
Jeez. Just give I a fecking rest. The deserters from here are happier elsewhere.

Jeremy Corbyn faces demands from nearly 40 victims of IRA atrocities to apologise for supporting Irish republicanism.
In an open letter to mark the 35th anniversary of the Brighton bombing, relatives of people killed or injured during the Troubles called on the Labour leader to condemn the terrorism campaign waged by the IRA in the 1970s and 1980s.
Mr Corbyn has been accused of repeatedly failing to do so, preferring instead to say that he condemns ‘all bombing’.
The letter has been signed by 38 people whose loved ones were killed or injured in 25 attacks that collectively killed more than 100 people and wounded more than 750.

Why don't you just start a Corbyn vent thread, as Lurker has done with Trump, and I have done with Boris.
Then you could put ALL your vitriolic posts there, instead of
spamming every other thread on this site.
I'm sure it would make Ben and Eddie very happy.

Jeremy Corbyn's shadow business secretary Rebecca Long-Bailey agreed that the leader should move on if he loses a second election
A senior member of Jeremy Corbyn’s shadow cabinet has added to growing calls for the Labour leader to step down if the party fails to win the next general election.
Rebecca Long-Bailey’s intervention came as Mr Corbyn refused to say whether he would quit if Labour is defeated at an election, which could come as soon as next month.

Re: Jeremy Corbyn is slammed for backing 'Iran-supporting propaganda group' run by firebrand leaders who blamed Grenfell on 'Zionists' and say the West is 'the enemy'
Is Jeremy Corbyn a friend of all Muslims?
Both domestically and internationally, Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn presents himself as a friend to Muslims, aware of and sympathetic to the problems they face. And superficially his presentation is valid. In stark contrast to his problems with the Jewish community, Corbyn does seem at ease with Muslims – he supported the community after Islamophobic attacks and frequently visits Mosques around the UK. Internationally, he can also point to his long record of support for the Palestinian cause. But amid speculation that Boris Johnson will call a general election later this year, and with the prospect that Jeremy Corbyn could soon be in power, it is worth scrutinising the Labour leader’s relations with the Muslim community more closely.
First, we need to be clear: Corbyn only supports some Muslims in the same way that he only supports some Jews. If you are Jewish and reject the state of Israel, you are perfectly acceptable to the Labour leader, as you have passed the key test – you no longer back what he sees as an imperialist regime. But if you do support Israel, then you lose your right to complain about anti-Semitism.
Less blatantly, Corbyn applies the same logic to Muslims. Corbyn’s model of the world is entirely binary, with anti-imperialists on one side and imperialist states – like the US, or the West as a whole – on the other. The list of anti-imperialist states varies but it often includes Iran, Venezuela, Syria, Russia, and China. And here lies the problem: if you are a Muslim and are victimised by one of these states, then you get little to no support from Corbyn. You are not suffering from the actions of an autocratic regime; you have become a pawn of imperialism. In effect, in Corbyn’s world, the nature of your oppressor matters.
So his much-vaunted support for the Palestinians is actually conditional. If Palestinians support the anti-Assad resistance in Syria, then they are not worth the UK’s support. They have crossed the line from being oppressed by the imperialist state of Israel to opposing the supposedly anti-imperialist Bashar al-Assad regime.
This distinction can also be seen in his response to two states that are currently carrying out a sustained assault on their Muslim minorities. In Myanmar, where more than 600,000 members of its Muslim Rohingya minority have fled from a concerted ethnic cleansing campaign, he has at least acknowledged the crimes and called on Myanmar’s leader Aung San Suu Kyi to use her influence to allow them to return to their homes. His response has been limited, but at least he is clear that what is happening is wrong and the Rohingya deserve support. But, of course, Myanmar has no anti-imperialist credentials, so voicing support with oppressed Muslims there is not inconsistent with his worldview.
Contrast this with Corbyn’s reaction to China’s treatment of its Uighur Muslim minority. It is clear the Chinese are determined to break the cultural links between the Uighurs and Islam. Reports of detention, brutality and mass surveillance of Uighurs are widespread. Corbyn’s favourite newspaper, the Morning Star, repeats Chinese claims that the crackdown on Uighurs is not repression but a necessary response to a violent insurgency. It downplays the closure of mosques by insisting that there are still ‘24,400 mosques across Xinjiang – one for every 530 Muslims.’ And from Corbyn himself? Near-complete silence.
In 2015, he sought to use private meetings with high-ranking Chinese officials to discuss human rights issues, but since then? Nothing. A systemic persecution of Muslims, far more authoritarian than the worst Israeli actions toward the Palestinians, has elicited no comment from Corbyn, no statements of support. China’s inclusion in Corbyn’s anti-imperialist club largely exempts it from criticism. In the same way, he has said almost nothing about the suffering of the Muslim Tatar community in Crimea since the peninsula was annexed by another member of the supposed anti-imperialists, Vladimir Putin’s Russia.
There is a consistency in Corbyn’s treatment of Muslims. The suffering of Muslims does matter to him, as long as it is at the hands of Western imperialism or one of its client states, such as Israel or Saudi Arabia. Victims of Iran’s proxy forces in Iraq and Syria, Palestinians attacked by the Assad regime, and the Uighur community stripped of all its rights do not matter. They are unfortunate enough to be attacked by states that Corbyn believes are anti-imperialist.

Corbyn’s model of the world is entirely binary, with anti-imperialists on one side and imperialist states – like the US, or the West as a whole – on the other. The list of anti-imperialist states varies but it often includes Iran, Venezuela, Syria, Russia, and China. And here lies the problem: if you are a Muslim and are victimised by one of these states, then you get little to no support from Corbyn. You are not suffering from the actions of an autocratic regime; you have become a pawn of imperialism. In effect, in Corbyn’s world, the nature of your oppressor matters.
So his much-vaunted support for the Palestinians is actually conditional. If Palestinians support the anti-Assad resistance in Syria, then they are not worth the UK’s support. They have crossed the line from being oppressed by the imperialist state of Israel to opposing the supposedly anti-imperialist Bashar al-Assad regime.
This distinction can also be seen in his response to two states that are currently carrying out a sustained assault on their Muslim minorities. In Myanmar, where more than 600,000 members of its Muslim Rohingya minority have fled from a concerted ethnic cleansing campaign, he has at least acknowledged the crimes and called on Myanmar’s leader Aung San Suu Kyi to use her influence to allow them to return to their homes. His response has been limited, but at least he is clear that what is happening is wrong and the Rohingya deserve support. But, of course, Myanmar has no anti-imperialist credentials, so voicing support with oppressed Muslims there is not inconsistent with his worldview.
Contrast this with Corbyn’s reaction to China’s treatment of its Uighur Muslim minority. It is clear the Chinese are determined to break the cultural links between the Uighurs and Islam. Reports of detention, brutality and mass surveillance of Uighurs are widespread. Corbyn’s favourite newspaper, the Morning Star, repeats Chinese claims that the crackdown on Uighurs is not repression but a necessary response to a violent insurgency. It downplays the closure of mosques by insisting that there are still ‘24,400 mosques across Xinjiang – one for every 530 Muslims.’ And from Corbyn himself? Near-complete silence.
In 2015, he sought to use private meetings with high-ranking Chinese officials to discuss human rights issues, but since then? Nothing. A systemic persecution of Muslims, far more authoritarian than the worst Israeli actions toward the Palestinians, has elicited no comment from Corbyn, no statements of support. China’s inclusion in Corbyn’s anti-imperialist club largely exempts it from criticism. In the same way, he has said almost nothing about the suffering of the Muslim Tatar community in Crimea since the peninsula was annexed by another member of the supposed anti-imperialists, Vladimir Putin’s Russia.
There is a consistency in Corbyn’s treatment of Muslims. The suffering of Muslims does matter to him, as long as it is at the hands of Western imperialism or one of its client states, such as Israel or Saudi Arabia. Victims of Iran’s proxy forces in Iraq and Syria, Palestinians attacked by the Assad regime, and the Uighur community stripped of all its rights do not matter. They are unfortunate enough to be attacked by states that Corbyn believes are anti-imperialist.

Ha Ha Ha. Why would I need to be paid for being factucally correct about Corbyn?
You cannot make it up how many times Andy Pandy looks to defend Corbyn
I mean he either stands with the majority of the country that condemns Corbyn or supports him
Maybe Andy pandy can show anywhere what I have posted about Corbyn is incorrect?
If not then how can it be a smear?
Anyway I cannot be bothered with the wally. He fails to debate anything and gets angry when Corbyn is constantly exposed for the vile hateful extremist that he is.
Hilarious

As Guido reported on Friday, despite not being Prime Minister, Corbyn has already managed to spark a major diplomatic row in India following a meeting he had with the left wing Indian Congress Party in which he claimed they had discussed the ongoing issue in Kashmir, which then caused Modi’s party to accuse their opponents of “shameful shenanigans”. The Congress Party hit back, accusing Corbyn of misrepresenting their meeting. Corbyn’s stellar foreign policy record continues…
Now, 110 British Indian organisations have signed a letter addressed to Corbyn, expressing their “deep dismay” at the “one-sided and divisive” emergency motion on Kashmir that was passed at Labour’s conference, which has “sown the seeds of community disharmony within the United Kingdon“. Read the full letter below…
Guido also learns that a big protest is now planned for Wednesday, and Lord Gadhia will today be leading a charge on the issue in Parliament. This issue for Labour isn’t Kash-merely going to go away…
