    The BBC has been a regime mouthpiece since before the Brexit referendum.

    More specifically, they have been a Tory mouthpiece, and still are. Labour should take steps to restore its independence.

      With all Labour’s efforts to get rid of “anti-semites” from the party, I wouldn’t hold your breath for any real change.

      Pro-Palestine viewpoints are political poison. Look at Corbyn.

        Wasn’t the anti-semitism thing a bit of an excuse/scapegoat as they were so scared of actual socialist policy?

          Maybe, but that shot of Corbyn holding a wreath at that Hamas guys funeral pretty much defined the Labour side of that election.

          Not that any other leader would have won against Boris anyway, it was all about Brexit and bluster.
