they did, not so sure anymore. there's a lot of very wealthy people there who understandably see the tories as better bed fellows. You'd think....but I suspect the reasons they vote left are deeper than that. However, I'd agree that it's more balanced over here than America. However the lobbies are painfully activist.

Corbyn will have been the final coffin nail in any Spurs supporters voting Labour. It is disgusting how unsafe Britain has become for Jews who choose to wear their traditional clothing.

I had a coffee with our local Orthodox rabbi quite recently and he didn't seem unduly concerned about his appearance attracting unwanted attention. Admittedly only a sample of one but by comparison with the Eastern Europe that so many people wax lyrical about here vis-a-vis a lack of Islamic terrorism, I'd sure feel a hell of a lot safer wearing a homberg in Stamford Hill than in Budapest. Everything's relative innit. Edited by steve1984 (06 Dec 2018 12.51pm)

Essentially minorities are majority anti establishment, until they are the establishment.

You can't win with these losers. They do everything they can to defund and de-platform this guy.....and then some of the pillocks have the cheeck to complain about him being funded by sources they haven't yet closed down.....because of some 'image'.

I deliberately chose not to link to this story in the Guardian. Strong parallels with the anti-semitic Corbyn stories peddled by the same rag imo. I notice the TR story has been picked up the beeb.

Anyone who threatens the establishment....and so on. Honestly that's probably Corbyn's best selling point.....while I don't want to watch Rome burn....at least some of the rats will be cleaned out.
