I really cant put up with a Labour leader who is willing to cause this much trouble over his hatred of Israel. As much as I may respect the view it is hardly a key issue in the job description. where is this fabled commitment to 'ordinary people' most of whom don't give a **** about Israel one way or the other?
He couldn't give a toss about 'ordinary people'. He is MP in a constituency whose occupants and concerns are about as far removed from 'ordinary' as any in the country. He cut his teeth in fringe politics and that fringe is where all his interests lie. This is what happens when you elect a professional protester as leader rather than a politician.
