There are only two political parties in the history of the United Kingdom to be investigated by the Equality & Human Rights Commission. One of them is Nick Griffin's BNP. The other is Jeremy Corbyn's Labour. You know why. Every man and his pet hamster knows why.
For now, it is just the Jewish community facing a very visible and shamelessly overt purge from the Labour party, however one does wonder which community is next. I have come to the disturbingly sinking realisation that it is mine.
The Labour machine under Corbyn has figured out that it would be political suicide for them to fully clamp down on antisemitism. They have too many seats that rely on communities which are fundamentally, historically, & culturally antisemitic and by a very conveniently disguised extension, anti-Israel.
Can anyone tell me with a straight face that this is not true? That it is not politically correct to say it out loud is one thing, that it is true is quite another, no matter how much we are terrified at the prospect of being labelled a racist, the truth will always remain the truth.
Case in point: The distinct lack of Britain's national flag at their party conference, replaced by flags of another country was pretty much an in your face challenge of I-dare-you-to-dethrone-us in the said seats. You have to be a special kind of stupid or wilfully complicit to have missed it.
I can see the same games being played with the British Indian diaspora - pitting Muslims against Hindus, pitting Hindus against Sikhs, and vice versa, tapping into nationalistic and separatist rhetoric from sectarian emotions imported from the Indian subcontinent.
A cynical but highly effective strategy, and I am deeply saddened to admit, a very successful one. Divide and rule worked on Indians in 19th century India, turns out it works on Indians in 21st century UK just as well.
No one does it better than Jeremy Corbyn's Labour party.
