Some form of retraction from the source
I mean it's almost as if somebody has been forced to say something that is actually true, isn't true so it means she can get work in the future.
That's wrong.
Plus it was only the other day she was ironing with her tits out in Shameless.
It isn’t true and as someone else said it’s what the hard left do - send a dog whistle to the anti semites while pretending to care about an issue in Israel
It is true though?
It's being pushed as some mad, made up conspiracy theory but the people trying to go out of their way to find offense with it are seemingly the batshit mental ones.
If it's offensive to mention Israeli forces / police methods and the training of Krav Maga, maybe it should be banned?
Why do you think it was said and why if you were told a front bench labour MP had retweetef everyone everyone would guess it was her?
To be clear, you are saying Maxine Peake retracting her statement to get future work is not a conspiracy theory, but saying that the American police were not trained to kneel on necks is?It is true though?

Scotland is gone now for Labour - best case is they could take the seats not held by the SNP currently but that’s a real stretch.

Where is the definitive proof that us officers get trained to kneel on necks by Israel secret services? Have you picked that up from a website somewhere that is credible?I mean, she retracted something that was factually correct after seeing the shit storm and somebody lose her job. Pretty sure if there was no shit storm there would have been no retraction. Obvious really.
The fact that it's being made out as a "wild conspiracy" about the Israeli stuff is proven bollocks.
As I've said, when people are more bothered about politics than facts and logic then their mind gets a bit clouded with bullshit.
Yeah there are bigger things being ignored somehow.meanwhile a government minister who deprived one of the most deprived boroughs in the UK of 40 million is strutting around scot free while his mates have trousered the cash.

There is no proof but unfortunately you can see the influence the message has. Yesterday when Ian was off in one he got Nick to respond that Israel is like North Korea
Until the Labour Party starts speaking the language of ‘the working class’, it will continue to lose ground to the Tories and it will never win back Scotland, the north and so on.
Amnesty International: We never reported that "neck kneeling" is taught by Israelis to USHave you followed the thread?
Lee Rigby was beheaded by two black people who converted to Muslim. That 100% is true as is the fact that most grooming gangs are Muslim. Tommy Robinson is true when he says it. Why do you think he says it?
I think Labour was quite obviously opposed to independence but formally sharing a platform with the Tories was suicide. Never say never but I just don’t see a winning path in England. Just the idea of decades more of right wing crap is a little disheartening.
I clearly didn't mean Israel is like it, I meant the fact you aren't allowed to talk about particular things is that it was like North Korea,
Again, this is what happens when politics come into it. People talk absolute shit to try and get things to go their way politically.
What track record does Starmer have in this situation?
They were concerned because a lot of Labour voters (at the time) were pro-independence and the party was worried about losing votes to the SNP.
Yet, it tried to appease both sides, yet offering nothing to either. Leaving a vacuum for the Tories to fill in Labours place.
Hindsight is 2020, but perhaps another legacy of Blairism and Browism ‘third way’ approach to politics influenced the class of the 2010s approach to these two referendums.
Yet, the fundamental mistake was understanding that on these two issues, the choices were binary.
Is it a wild, Islamaphobic, racist conspiracy that Lee Rigby was beheaded by two Muslim black people or is it a fact?
The message is political. It’s trying to create an association with the Jews having some responsibility in the death of George Floyd and that they are “the problem”
I don't disagree with you that even within the Labour party, the politics around this one is a fucking can of worms and makes it a shit show, from my point of view it was good leadership because without a doubt everyone in Labour would have been issued warning to stay away from anything that can be dragged into the Anti-semitism argument. That retweet by Long-Bailey stumbled into the territory, offensive or not, factually accurate or not. Starmer had to be seen to be tough on it though, and he was. Even though as mentioned it may give him tough times down the road.Ah, guess it's the same as Israelis not using neck kneeling methods too. Despite it being a move in a "Police Training" Krav Maga training video.
Everybody is on a massive backtrack it seems. Everybody wants to play on words and stuff.
I am just going on the article and what was said, without the politics. US Police do receive training from Israelis, they do get Krav Maga training in restraint, that does include kneeling on the neck.
I don't think anybody is saying that exact copper was trained one to one with an Israeli and was sent to do it to a black person, are they? Just that it happens.
It’s a fact and if you keep saying it over and over again as the far right do what is the purpose
Shared an article where it repeated the conspiracy theory that Israel trained the cops who killed George Floyd, proper bat shit stuff that shouldn’t have made it into a national newspaper in the first place.
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has sacked Rebecca Long-Bailey, saying she shared an article containing an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory.
I've re-read the article and can kind if see where it's coming from.
The article states that "system racism is a global issue"...and the follows as an example of system racism - " the tactics used by police in America, kneeling in George Floyd's neck (reading between the lines that kneeling on his neck was due to systemic racisim), that was learned from seminars from the Israeli secret service (implying that isreali secret service have taught racist police tactics,I'm guess ie using heavy handed tactics against a particular race e.g Israeli heavy handed tactics against Palestinians/muslims, and therefore encouraging America to do so against bame communities)
So the conspiracy theory is.
Israelis used heavy handed police techniques that they use against Palestinians who they have systemically racist against.
They taught America police their tactics to use against races that they do not like.
Therefore systemic racism is a global issue
It is very subtle.
For info Maxine Peake has retraced it.
And RLB appears to be removed from the front bench due to refusing to remove the post
For me Starmers acted swiftly and appropriately

The inference is a bit of a stretch though.
It may well be that Israeli's taught them the tactic, but nowhere does it suggest they only use it on certain people.
Maybe someone could find evidence that Israeli's only use it on Palestinians or US police only use it on minorities, but even if that were the case that sentence doesn't imply it. If you think it does it says more about your own opinions rather than the actual content.
So it's not a racist, islamaphobic conspiracy theory then?
I mean, you only need to see how it's been pushed by the media and you can see from shmeee's original reply (Which he has now had a change of view on):
Now it's been explained, I can see "why" somebody from Labour might not have been allowed to even go near an article which mentions Israel in a sentence but it's not really right.
It's also not a conspiracy theory, if it's offensive to talk about and people want to pretend it's made up then they should probably look at banning it.
Debatable. It all hinged on when we would go into lockdown. I must have missed that piece in the last labour manifesto.
Robinson wants to convey a message all Muslims are terrorists. The old hard left want to convey a message Jews are racist authoritarian and dangerous.
Look at the Zarah Sultana. She said if she could kill 3 people it would be George Bush Tony Blair and the Israeli PM
That’s an odd choice isn’t it? Not the China leader, Mugawbe or another African despot, not the North Korean dynasty, not Putin and not the Saudi Prince or other brutal Middle East regimes?
Odd choice isn’t it?
