Julie Burchill on anti-Semitism in the Labour Party in the UK

On the continuing discussion of anti-Semitism in the UK, this, of course, gets right down to it: Labour Party “Jew-hatred” is cynical bid for Muslim vote.

The strange fruit which was allowed to blossom by a Labour Party, smug in its anti-racist credentials, has turned the party into a rotting edifice fatally riddled with the ancient disease of anti-Semitism.

The long, lonely road here started with the perfectly ­reasonable desire to be anti-racist and ended up poisoned by what I call Paint-Chart Politics.

PCP is the equally illogical inversion of conventional racism – in this case, the furthest-from-white is always right.

And, hence, the Labour Party has found itself supporting a sexist, homophobic, nihilist death cult – Islamism – just because the majority of those who practice it are dark skinned and the majority of Jews white.

Not an ounce of decency in it, nothing moral or fair-minded, similar to Labor in Australia. It’s only the votes that matter and values go up in smoke.
