A brick is sent flying through the window of the challenger to Corbyn’s marxist mob-rule and what? Who’s to blame, why’d it happen? Is it of any importance?
The BBC has decided that nobody knows who chucked the brick nor why. Not a clue. If it had been through the window of a Polish shop the BBC would know exactly who to blame, and why. Peter Allen just dismissed it utterly….he told us that it was just one brick…it wasn’t important. Can’t imagine him saying that is it had gone through a mosque window….unless it was an Ahmadi ‘mosque’ of course. [Note how the BBC reported the final chapter in the killing of the Ahmadi shopkeeper, Asad Shah, in Glasgow by a Sunni Muslim…it was a ‘religiously motivated’ attack…but not because the victim was an Ahmadi and therefore the victim of a hate crime, but because the killer thought the shopkeeper had insulted Islam…so the victim was in fact the wrongdoer here…the killer the real victim. Good old BBC]
Trump is facing death threats, Farage had death threats, his family were threatened, Leave voters suffer a barrage of intense hate, abuse and threats, Angela Eagle and many Labour MPs are under virtual attack with yet more death threats and threats of rape…and the BBC plays all that down or ignores it as much as possible…..however say you’ve been looked at in the street when wearing a headscarf and you’re frontpage news on the BBC. Just why is the BBC so intent on covering up the huge amount of threatened violence and abuse that is targeted at those on the Right and those who oppose Corbyn? Why does Corbyn’s hard left Marxism get a free pass on the BBC? Why does his support for terrorist organisations hardly merit a mention?
The BBC is quick to blame Brexit for a supposed rise in hate crimes against immigrants (though the police who get interviewed always suggest there may be a rise but it may just be more awareness and people prepared to report it…or people who have an interest in reporting it and claiming it as due to Brexit) but not so keen to link other violence to the Left’s rhetoric…such as the attacks on Trump and Farage and the killings of police officers in the US.
The BBC isn’t so keen to challenge the laughable rhetoric of the SNP and Len McCluskey as they demand that ‘democracy’ be respected….that’ll be the SNP who completely refuse to accept the ‘once in a lifetime’ independence vote and McCluskey who told us that if democracy didn’t deliver him what he wanted he would have his troops on the streets using other means to get his way….and is now telling us how the challenge to Corbyn, far from being democracy in action, is a ‘sordid little fix that is alien to our traditions’. Yeah a traditional brick through the window is so much more democratic and decisive than a show of hands.
Personally I find Corbyn deeply sinister. The BBC can’t find a bad word to say about him, and his partners in crime.
Obviously it was one of those racist, xenophobic, islamophobic, homophobic Brixiteers!
Corbyn is a weak person. A weak person given power is the most dangerous of individuals.
“Weak person” , why because he stands by his principles. He as brought honesty, morality and decency to politics. He believes in peace and hope. Why can’t we be a country of peace, equality and open our hearts and minds to other countries. I see a man, who for best part of his life stayed in the background. Within a party who followed the counter narrative to his own beliefs. A party that went far beyond from its original core values. Corbyn I believe as bought the party back to its core principles and values. Standing up for the poor, disadvantaged and more.
Against a massive tide of media lies, biased reporting and savage attacks on him personally. From all sides of the political spectrum. Childish banter from Conservatives, and enemies within his own party.
I don’t see a “weak man”. I see a strong, determined, wise man
A strong determined wise man who dropped a lifetime of opposition to the EU and had to hide during the Referendum campaign?
An interesting view of Corbyn but I would suggest it is a rather roseate view.
stewiko ““Weak person” , why because he stands by his principles.”
Except he hasn’t. I suggest you listen to yesterday’s WatO, BBC R4 1pm via iPlayer and listen to the evidence from the lady from the Labour NEC. Or take the evidence of the attempt to replace him. Why? Because as an anti-EU politician and party leader, Corbyn junked his principles and in public sat glumly silent in the Remain camp during the Referendum campaign.
stewiko “He (h)as brought honesty, morality and decency to politics. He believes in peace and hope.” He sort of did believe in peace but also liked to cosy up to terrorists and those who are against peace for themselves, let alone others. As for hope, yes, Corbyn might have hopes but his hope for a thriving future for the working man has not been met in the EU, is not being met in the EU and would not be met in the EU in the near & medium term future.
Corbyn should have stood up. Instead, he folded. He sat down.
Labour has always stood for “[Corbyn I believe as bought the party back to] its core principles and values. Standing up for the poor, disadvantaged and more.” in word but not – ever – in deed. It is a middle & upper class group of do-gooders who believe they know what is best for everyone else, parrot continual grievance and point accusingly at everyone else, while merely serving themselves.
I do think Corbyn wants to try to turn Labour into what it should be but never really, truly, has ever been. Because Corbyn has gone against his beliefs and principles on a key issue, the EU, he has upset everyone within the Party in Parliament and they know he will never win power to put his changes into place. He now only has the support of sections of the Hard and Far Left who are manipulating & motivating a lot of ‘youthful’ (not necessarily in age) new members among the wider public.
This is not media lies: It is what has happened. It is actuality, the reality of now.
The inescapable fact that the BBC (and other MSM outlets) seem to miss is that it is impossible for any of these Labour leadership candidates to offer any true leadership if they do not have a sold base. Angela Eagle may be standing as leader of the party, but she is doing so from a weak base even more so with this morning’s news that her local membership have voted no confidence in her by a margin of 53-4.

That someone can lob a brick through her constituency office window, seemingly with impunity, simply exemplifies the point. The same goes for any Labour MP who expressed no confidence in the current leadership- they all face deselection. Such is the weakness of the current parliamentary group that none of their futures can be assured.
The signs are there, but the BBC and others will not address the reality, simply reporting on incidents in isolation.
bBBC Radio Merseyside linked the brick through Angela Eagle’s office window, and the scores of abusive messages sent to her, with the murder of Jo Cox MP. Only the bBBC could shift the blame from groups of extreme lefties to a solo right-wing nutter.
Lot of glass there at Salfords Media City.
Wonder if Jo Cox would have wanted Corbyn out as Labour Leader?
I think that she would have done…and if the Lefties are quick about it, she may still have a glass casket open in a Funeral Directors somewhere nearby worth a bricking.
Eagle it is reported is getting a lot of homophobic abuse, ah but it’s from the leftist Marxists so that’s alright. Just imagine if there a comment by UKIP member it would be headline news on the BBC..
What annoys me is this line by the BBC that Corbyn is principled and peaceful, so was Stalin principled and as for Peaceful his support for the IRA dispelled that..
