MEME MONDAY #51

A week very much dominated by the demise of Angela Rayner's front bench career and the hasty reshuffle of the Titanic deckchairs that followed...

her quest for lefty virtue points at the Palestinian altar.  Many likened her new

that he was considering digital IDs in order to tackle 'illegal migration'.  The
argument is as daft as it sounds - whether it comes from his mouth or Tony Blair's.
The point is that digital ID is just a means to a globalist totalitarian end and they
will achieve it through whatever bullshit argument they can think of

was much more positive than when we ran something very similar ahead of

conceal their contempt for the working classes.  They espouse a political
doctrine supposedly designed to empower the proletariat, but routinely mock
the political will of the masses - from Brexit to immigration

CALL FOR AFGHAN 'REPARATIONS'

Labour's Socialist Campaign Group has backed a call from the far left Stop the War Coalition for 'reparations' to Afghanistan.  A statement from the SCG was signed by 19 of the groups 35 members, plus six Labour peers (see below).

The statement mirrors that published by the Stop the War Coalition on its website two days earlier.  The statement includes the following: "The British government should take a lead in offering a refugee programme and reparations to rebuild Afghanistan, an act which would go a great deal further in advancing the rights of the Afghan people, women in particular, than continued military or economic intervention in the fate of the Afghanistan".

Now that the Taliban is back in power, how on earth do these buffons expect reparations to be used to 'advance the rights of Afghan women'?  Furthermore, what reparations did their beloved Soviet Union pay after they left Afghanistan?  How about those communist invaders cough up first, as a gesture to the West?

The Stop the War Coalition was founded ten days after the September 11 attacks by Lindsey German, a far left activist who was at that time a member of the Socialist Workers Party.  Among the early sponsors of the group were Labour MPs Tony Benn, Jeremy Corbyn and George Galloway.  Rallies organised by the group have been addressed by many hard left MPs over the years, including Diane Abbott, Richard Burgon, John McDonnell and Caroline Lucas of the Greens.  During its twenty-year existence the group has also been backed by the SNP and Plaid Cymru, as well as the Communist Party of Britain.

On its website the group boasts how it was "one of the main organisers of the massive protests against Donald Trump".  Funny that, considering that during his presidency Trump did not embark on a single foreign conflict.  Further proof that Stop the War is just another front for communist agitators, for whom revolutionary uprisings are much higher on their agenda than 'peace'.

SWP APPEAL TO CORBYNITES

The hard left Socialist Workers Party has appealed to disaffected Labour members to join their tiny outfit.  Labour has already lost almost 60,000 members since Starmer took over from Corbyn and while it's not clear how the current infighting has affected membership, we know that a number of prominent figures have thrown in the towel - including one former MP and a number of councillors.  One of the recent walkouts cost the party its majority on Kirklees Council.

On Monday the SWP printed an open letter to Labour members in its rag the Socialist Worker.  The letter was predictably critical of Keir Starmer and what communists refer to as 'the right wing' of the party.  Signed by the 'Central Committee', the letter accuses Starmer of going back on his pledge to 'preserve Corbyn's legacy' by being 'intent on driving [Corbyn] out'.  It goes on to suggest that the treatment of Corbyn has nothing to do with anti-Semitism, but everything to do with a powerful clique of MPs who support the state of Israel and want to exact revenge on behalf of Blair and New Labour.  The word 'Zionist' is not used, but it's clear what is meant.

The stakes are high if Corbyn is not fully reinstated and this results in a significant split in the Labour Party.  The SWP surmises that this would leave 'hundreds of thousands' politically homeless and is keen to invite those Corbynites into its depleted ranks - bringing some desperately needed credibility and, crucially, generating a lot of income.  However, the SWP is up against a seriously viable alternative in the event of a Labour split.  It's more likely that a new entity would arise from the split, something that former Labour MP Chris Williamson has been pushing for (see video below).

Either way, whichever party the horde of Corbynites choose to end up is doomed to failure.  The likelihood that Burgon, Lavery and McDonnell would share a platform with the sort of loony lefties deemed too extreme even for Labour will give their new venture as much credibility and electability as the current joke outfit that is the Socialist Workers Party.
