The Labour Files - Episode 1 - The Purge I Al Jazeera Investigations

An investigation based on the largest leak of documents in British political history. The Labour Files examines thousands of internal documents, emails and social media messages to reveal how senior officials in one of the two parties of government in the UK ran a coup by stealth against the elected leader of the party.
The program will show how officials set about silencing, excluding and expelling its own members in a ruthless campaign to destroy the chances of Jeremy Corbyn becoming Britain’s prime minister.
Candidates for key political roles were blocked and constituency groups suspended as the party’s central office sought to control the elected leadership.

And the way activists in the conference were handled compared to how tories handled interruptions at hustings. Labour are nicer people… except the far left. All tories supported Boris to get us to this point though. Also, if the party never moved to the centre it wouldn’t be massively ahead in the poles like it is right now.

Good on you and the likes of Peter Oborne for this. Honesty and integrity is a rare thing among the political class. As a member between 2015 and 2020, none of this is a surprise but it is still sickening. There are some very good people in the Labour party, but there are many more irredeemably contemptible bastards. I saw it and experienced it first hand. Having knocked on hundreds of doors in 2017 and 2019 with other activism and campaigning work in between, I will never vote for them again in its current guise and with these people running it. The party stinks beyond belief, rotten to its core.

[@lizshephard2964]

The wolf in sheeps clothing used subterfuge, aggressive mimicry tactics when, with hidden backing from Israel's Zionists and the giant US privateer corporation 'United Health', he posed as a safe, continuity candidate with Ten Pledges to fool the electorate and parachute into the naively welcoming arms of the democratic socialist Labour Party. Lambs to the slaughter. Dropping all pledges once installed, he used the cover of the pandemic to impose an authoritarian ban on local democratic meetings, motions, community and social development action, by using the party software, where all local communications were funnelled via the centre. He then shockingly and suddenly suspended key socialist luminaries including Jeremy Corbyn and Ken Loach on trumped up allegations (or none). Starmer also began to "root out" speakers who had in past years, talked to groups on the left. He then proscribed, retrospectively, six groups. Intolerant of opinion beyond his own cabal, he used lawfare to pursue through the courts the victims of his Stalinist impositions, and financially rewarded very well the meddling Zionist anti-democratic elements. The £13.5 million raised by the multitudes joining Labour as the direct result of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership, which had reversed the party's fortunes from its previous large debts, was thus spent out. Wasted. Starmer was not lying for once when he admitted to a large Labour crowd that he is "Zionist, without reservation". There are no limits to his persecution of decent, humanitarian British people he frames as enemies, smearing all as "antisemites". His obsessive, paranoid defence of Israel's brutal military apartheid regime uses absurd Kafkaesque tactics such as trawling through old social media posts, aided by the Isreali military spies he employs to repress, crack down on and expel those who dare to think, feel horror for the victims, and use free speech.

As a new subscriber to Al Jazeera I really appreciate the real journalism that isnt reported in mainstream media. Its worrying that this cult exists in our politicians. With regards to the Watsapp private circle messages as I am watching all the episodes, just gives me affirmation that this sort thing could very well also be happening within the UK workforce and corporate organisations too. When do people grow a brain cell. I never believed JC was antisemitic not for one moment. The media has a way of blindsiding and then you have stupid people who just believe what they read and see. I am all too familiar with fake accusations not personally but in the world we live in today and what the media is pushing out. A lot of people are now going around saying smoking is banned for instance, when clearly it has not it is the age of consent to buy that is being risen by 1 year every year - also there are far more important issues than banning smoking but again a media hype to blind side people

I actually went to school with him, he was an odd kid and got bullied a lot.

(I don't know the details) The guy needs professional help, the stuff you see from him in this documentary shakes anyone with a shred of basic human empathy to their core Somehow the possibility of people like this being in power is even more frightening than the Tories being in - the Tories are predictable, they steal from the poor and give to the rich, you can take them on and fight them on those terms -the Labour right, god help us, what do you even make of them. Hatred, bullying, dehumanisation, racism, hunger for power and authority, utter contempt for democracy and other people's views.
