Starmer always making it easy for the Tories. Now you have absolutely corrupt people like Jenrick grandstanding about this when they should be answering for the bullshyt PPE contracts being awarded to their donors etc.

Starmer is such a fukking snake. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt during the leadership campaign, but I should have known.

Starmer was part of the 2016 "chicken coup" against Corbyn. And Corbyn was gracious enough to still offer him a high-profile shadow cabinet position.

Standard British responses. If we don't talk about racism it can't exist... it's just becomes a problem when anyone complains about experiencing the actual daily racism that is everywhere in this country.

We're the absolute fukkin' worst.

Nationalism and racism go hand in hand.

Keir Starmer urged to return donations from 'Islamophobic' property developer

Keir Starmer has been urged to return donations to Labour made by a property developer whose tweets have been condemned by Muslim groups as Islamophobic.

Muslim communal groups and a Labour NEC member challenged Starmer to take action over the “abhorrent and Islamophobic” posts by David Abrahams, a businessman and philanthropist.

Abrahams is the latest Blair-era donor drawn back to Labour by Starmer. He confirmed last month that he had set up a direct debit to the Labour party, having ceased donations in 2016.

However, Muslim groups, pointing to online comments by Abrahams, have raised the alarm over his renewed links to the Labour leadership. Abrahams’ tweets included suggestions that Muslims have “mixed loyalties”, that conservative Muslim culture is inherently violent, and that Muslim youth have a propensity for suicide.

“Don’t think I know how to divide political Islam from moderates and fundamentalists,” Abrahams posted in 2013. “It is the very nature of the beast!”

As recently as this January, he tweeted the claim that while Israel was a “brand new hi-tech state with new inventions to benefit mankind” its “close neighbours chose terrorism and invented suicide bombers”.

Worse statements than what was labelled as antisemitic.

See the double standard?
