Turns out Riley pulled a Kuenssberg after supposedly being 'abused' on twitter after parroting the usual lies about antisemtism in the Labour party. No direct quotes provided, natch: https://web.archive.org/web/20190207183043/https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2019/jan/26/rachel-riley-countdown-extra-security-online-abuse 'The Countdown co-presenter Rachel Riley has revealed she is to be given extra security on the Channel 4 game show after being abused online for her criticism of antisemitism in the Labour party. Riley, who is Jewish, said she had been targeted by Labour supporters on Twitter for her criticisms of the party and its leader, Jeremy Corbyn. She has already spoken about being trolled online, but said the problem had worsened and included physical threats. She told the Times newspaper: “The more I speak, the more abuse I get, and the more abuse I get, the more I speak. It’s got to the point where I can’t look at my Twitter feed any more … it’s just a constant stream.” She added: “We are getting more security for Countdown.”' (etc etc ad nauseam) I hope all the Blairites do abandon ship. Corbyn might stand a chance of winning without them constantly stabbing him in the back! cheers, I
