  • Antisemitism in the Radical Left and the British Labour Party, by Dave Rich
    Kantor Center Position Papers Editor: Mikael Shainkman January 2018 ANTISEMITISM IN THE RADICAL LEFT AND THE BRITISH LABOUR PARTY Dave Rich* Executive Summary Antisemitism has become a national political issue and a headline story in Britain for the first time in decades because of ongoing problems in the Labour Party. Labour used to enjoy widespread Jewish support but increasing left wing hostility towards Israel and Zionism, and a failure to understand and properly oppose contemporary antisemitism, has placed increasing distance between the party and the UK Jewish community. This has emerged under the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn, a product of the radical 1960s New Left that sees Israel as an apartheid state created by colonialism, but it has been building on the fringes of the left for decades. Since Corbyn became party leader, numerous examples of antisemitic remarks made by Labour members, activists and elected officials have come to light. These remarks range from opposition to Israel’s existence or claims that Zionism collaborated with Nazism, to conspiracy theories about the Rothschilds or ISIS. The party has tried to tackle the problem of antisemitism through procedural means and generic declarations opposing antisemitism, but it appears incapable of addressing the political culture that produces this antisemitism: possibly because this radical political culture, borne of anti-war protests and allied to Islamist movements, is precisely where Jeremy Corbyn and his closest associates find their political home. A Crisis of Antisemitism Since early 2016, antisemitism has become a national political issue in Britain for the first time in decades. This hasn’t come about because of a surge in support for the far right, or jihadist terrorism against Jews.

  • Matthew Gregory Chief Executive Firstgroup Plc 395
    Matthew Gregory House of Commons, Chief Executive London, FirstGroup plc SW1A0AA 395 King Street Aberdeen AB24 5RP 15 October 2019 Dear Mr Gregory As West Yorkshire MPs, we are writing as FirstGroup are intending to sell First Bus and to request that the West Yorkshire division of the company is sold as a separate entity. This sale represents a singular opportunity to transform bus operations in our area and we believe it is in the best interests of both FirstGroup and our constituents for First Bus West Yorkshire to be taken into ownership by the West Yorkshire Combined Authority (WYCA). To this end, we believe that WYCA should have the first option to purchase this division. In West Yorkshire, the bus as a mode of travel is particularly relied upon by many of our constituents to get to work, appointments and to partake in leisure activities. We have a long-shared aim of increasing the usage of buses locally as a more efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to the private car. We believe that interest is best served by allowing for passengers to have a stake in their own service through the local combined authority. There is wide spread public support for this model as a viable direction for the service and your facilitation of this process through the segmentation of the sale can only reflect well on FirstGroup. We, as representatives of the people of West Yorkshire request a meeting about the future of First Bus West Yorkshire and consideration of its sale to West Yorkshire Combined Authority. Yours sincerely, Alex Sobel MP Tracey Brabin MP Imran Hussain MP Judith Cummins MP Naz Shah MP Thelma Walker MP Paula Sherriff MP Holly Lynch MP Jon Trickett MP Barry Sheerman MP John Grogan MP Hilary Benn MP Richard Burgon MP Fabian Hamilton MP Rachel Reeves MP Yvette Cooper MP Mary Creagh MP Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

  • Serious Anti-Semitism Problem', Peers Warn
    AVRASYA İNCELEMELERİ MERKEZİ CENTER FOR EURASIAN STUDIES LABOUR HAS 'SERIOUS ANTI-SEMITISM PROBLEM', PEERS WARN - 28.04.2016 28.04.2016 BBC The Labour Party has a "serious problem" with anti-Semitism, a senior Labour peer has warned. Lord Levy told BBC Newsnight he believed anti-Semitism existed across the political divide, but it seemed "more prominent" within Labour. It follows the party's decision to suspend MP Naz Shah from the party over comments about Israel on social media, pending an investigation. Ms Shah has made a "profound apology" in the Commons for her remarks. The MP for Bradford West has been widely criticised for Facebook posts she made before she became an MP, in which she suggested, among other things, that Israel should be moved to the United States. 'Hard left' Lord Levy, who was Tony Blair's envoy and chief fundraiser, told the BBC her comments displayed "ignorance", and he was left "scratching his head with despair as to how people like this can enter our parliament with such a lack of knowledge, discretion and sensitivity". His comments were echoed by cross-bench peer Baroness Neuberger, who claimed Labour's problem of anti-Semitism was "attached to Jeremy Corbyn becoming leader", and added that it was "an issue with the hard left". Labour has faced claims of growing anti-Semitism in its ranks. Earlier this year a Labour Luton councillor was suspended from the party after claiming Hitler was the "greatest man in history". Jeremy Corbyn has insisted anti-Semitism will not be tolerated but some of his MPs say the party leadership is not doing enough to stamp it out.

  • Proxy Voting May Also Be in the Hon
    913 Points of Order 13 SEPTEMBER 2018 914 Mr Speaker: It is possible that that would result. It Proxy Voting may also be in the hon. Gentleman’s mind in making that perfectly reasonable suggestion that if there were 1.13 pm such a regular opportunity, it would give him the chance to show what a thoroughly agreeable fellow he can be. The Leader of the House of Commons (Andrea Leadsom): [Interruption.] I think we will leave it there for today. I I beg to move, am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for his characteristic That this House has considered proxy voting in the House of ingenuity and to colleagues for their points of order. Commons. Today’simportant debate has been eagerly anticipated by a number of Members across the House. It was, of course, scheduled for before the summer recess, but it was right that a statement on a matter of national security took precedence on that day. I am pleased, however, that we are able to hear the views of the House today, and consider the many issues surrounding the matter. I have made my personal commitment clear—I want a House of Commons suited to our times. I pay tribute to all MPs who have helped to progress this important issue. Members of all parties have shown true commitment to making positive changes in Parliament. In particular, the right hon. and learned Member for Camberwell and Peckham (Ms Harman) and my right hon. Friend the Member for Basingstoke (Mrs Miller) are vocal advocates of this matter. I also thank my hon.

  • Race and Religion in Online Abuse Towards UK Politicians: Working Paper
    Race and Religion in Online Abuse towards UK Politicians: Working Paper Genevieve Gorrell, Mehmet E. Bakir, Mark A. Greenwood, Ian Roberts and Kalina Bontcheva The University of Sheffield, UK ARTICLE HISTORY Compiled October 25, 2019 ABSTRACT Against a backdrop of tensions related to EU membership, we find levels of online abuse toward UK MPs reach a new high. Race and religion have become pressing topics globally, and in the UK this interacts with \Brexit" and the rise of social media to create a complex social climate in which much can be learned about evolving attitudes. In 8 million tweets by and to UK MPs in the first half of 2019, religious intolerance scandals in the UK's two main political parties attracted significant attention. Furthermore, high profile ethnic minority MPs started conversations on Twitter about race and religion, the responses to which provide a valuable source of insight. We found a significant presence for disturbing racial and religious abuse. We also explore metrics relating to abuse patterns, which may affect its impact. We find \burstiness" of abuse doesn't depend on race or gender, but individual factors may lead to politicians having very different experiences online. KEYWORDS Social media; Twitter; politics; online abuse; racism; religious intolerance 1. Introduction There is little doubt that the rise in social media usage is having far-reaching effects on society (e.g. Milan, 2015), creating a need for vigilant commentary as the landscape shifts on almost a daily basis, in order to resist pernicious effects. Globally we have seen a rise in populism, fuelled by social media (Engesser, Ernst, Esser, & B¨uchel, 2017).
