    This is a repudiation of Corbynism. Labour needs to ditch the politics of the sect
    A 1970s hard-left clique led the party into a dead end – and it’s the poor and vulnerable who will pay the price

      He "analyzed" the election on RNZ this morning.

      With the Conservative Party recording a resounding victory in the UK general election, we ask what happens now to Boris Johnson's Brexit deal to remove the UK from the European Union? How did the campaign go so spectacularly wrong for Labour and its leader Jeremy Corbyn? And what about some of the other major issues- the future of the NHS, spending on education and policing, and the lingering question of Scottish independence- how have these been affected by the vote?

      To answer these questions and more we speak to Professor Richard G. Whitman and Jonathan Freedland.

      Jonathan Freedland is a British journalist, who writes a weekly column for The Guardian. He presents BBC Radio 4's contemporary history series, The Long View, and also writes thrillers, mainly under the pseudonym Sam Bourne.

      Professor Richard G Whitman is an associate fellow of the Europe Programme at Chatham House (formerly known as the Royal Institute of International Affairs. He is also the director of the Global Europe Centre and professor of Politics and International Relations at the University of Kent.

      Dear Kim,

      Jonathan Freedland??!!?

      After listening to that arch-fantasist and traducer Jonathan Freedland this morning, the question arises: who's going to be your next "expert" to "analyse" British politics? Nigel Farage? Tommy Robinson? Margaret Hodge?

      Your---or your producer's---decision to pretend that Freedland is a reputable or reliable analyst is not a surprise, unfortunately. Freedland, as dishonest and viciously partisan as he is, is no better or worse than the equally dodgy Luke Harding.

      Yours in profound disappointment,

        He's just told her that New Zealand and Britain are two of the least racist countries in the world, and scoffed at the "fashionable" protests against U.S. police violence, where "people marched with their hands in the air saying Don't Shoot! in front of unarmed policemen, who couldn't shoot them if they'd wanted to."


          She said Murray has been "praised by figures as diverse as Nick Cohen,

          Roger Scruton, and the Chief Rabbi of Britain."

          I sent her the following email...

          Dear Kim,

          You said Douglas Murray's book had been "praised by figures as diverse as Nick Cohen, Roger Scruton, and the Chief Rabbi of Britain."

          How are these three in any way "diverse" in their views? Cohen and the Chief Rabbi, in particular, are almost interchangeable in their views.

          Yours in wonderment,

            Your state broadcaster sounds even more fascist than the BBC.

            'When I enter Broadcasting House, my eyes are often drawn to the BBC's motto, inscribed beneath its coat of arms. It reads, of course, "nation shall speak peace unto nation." Our motto goes back to the BBC's formation, on 1 January 1927, when it was adopted by the new Corporation to signify its purpose.12 Apr 2011'

            Remembering the flak I took for this column. Point is, it wasn’t just predictable that sticking with Corbyn risked a hard Brexit and five more years of Johnson - it was predicted

            It wasn’t predicted Jonathan. It was manufactured. By you. And now we all have to live with it. You utter prick.


            and then John Mann pipes up with his sinister threat against the Canary:

            Who'd have guessed that Mendoza - one of the people most responsible for toxifying the British left with racially charged conspiracy theories about Jews - would blame a Jew before anyone else.

            Whoever takes control of Labour, from whatever faction, please #### these people off.

            I can this morning announce that as government advisor on antisemitism that I will be instigating an investigation this January into the role of the Canary and other websites in the growth of antisemitism in the United Kingdom.
