To be unsurprised that Corbyn is still being called anti-semitic?

Corbyn has been quite happy over the years to work with those who are clearly anti-Semitic. And he continues to do so. Whilst at the same time saying that he condemns all forms of racism, recently changed to say he condemns anti semitism. Does he not realise yet that people judge him by his actions, not his broad statements which are pretty meaningless? And until he clearly shows in his actions that he condemns anti semitism, these allegations will continue?

I'm not surprised at all. After all, he's such an unlikeable man: wrong suit, can't sing the National anthem, a criminal really in the eyes of the British press. The same very press who lambasted David Miliband for ... well, looking like a Jewish man ...

Why is it all about the media and whether Corbyn is likeable or not

It's about the party's leadership and governing body

And whether they give a shit about clamping down on bigotry within the party

Whereby bigotry isn't criticising Israeli politics

Where bigotry is stuff like holocaust denial and anti semitic tropes about Jewish conspiracies

And failure by the party leader and NEC to respond to it

Isn't that stuff worthy of criticism?
