For me, defeating antisemitism and other forms of discrimination and persecution is more important than goal-scoring and flag-waving between the opposing camps in the British political culture. However, it is also important to expose the hypocrisy and bad faith that have accompanied some of the conservative claim to be camp that most consistently challenges antisemitism. Does that make sense?bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15439386754907203808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10131050.post-55515759147073642762008-06-17T18:11:00.000+01:002008-06-17T18:11:00.000+01:00To be honest with you, Matt, there's an element of...To be honest with you, Matt, there's an element of both in this.<BR/><BR/>Yes, there is still much to be done in rooting out anti-semitism, and by and large at the grass roots level its still very much the left who're doing the heavy lifting on the ground despite the kind of nonsense that the Trots go in for.<BR/><BR/>Equally, its often frustrating to see the political right mouthing off only when tackling anti-semitism, of sorts, fits neatly into one of their other agendas.Unityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17718085232700149823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10131050.post-89459371635772304132008-06-16T21:11:00.000+01:002008-06-16T21:11:00.000+01:00So is the point that there's a lot of work yet to ...So is the point that there's a lot of work yet to be done dealing with antisemitism in Britain? Or is antisemitism only useful in pointing out the tokenism of the right, just kicking the political football back at 'em? Of course, I'd like to think the former, but the comments don't really suggest that that's how the story is being taken.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05146833770654841724noreply@blogger.com
