    Of course the fraudian had a lot to say about this, all of it bollocks:

    Labour MPs have expressed fury at Chris Williamson’s re-admission to the party after having been suspended for suggesting the party had been “too apologetic” about antisemitism.

    "Labour MPs" implying all of them; not "some", not "a few that are part of a lobby devoted to a foreign government" just "Labour MPs".

    First up...the usual suspect:

    Labour’s Ruth Smeeth called the decision “disgusting” and said colleagues did not want Williamson in the party. “I am horrified,” she said on Wednesday. “It says a great deal about how seriously we’re taking anti-Jewish hate.”

    She added that she was “not comfortable being in the same room” as the Derby North MP.

    Pathetic drama queen although I'm sure he feels the same way about you to be honest, fearing you will claim he said something anti-semetic or tried to bite your face off like Hannibal Lecter.

    And then more of the usual suspects:

    Labour MPs including Stella Creasy, Jess Phillips and Wes Streeting, all expressed disgust at the decision. Phillips said she was “disgusted but not surprised anymore” and suggested she would have been expelled had she said similar things to Williamson.

    That first sentence makes NO SENSE WHATSOEVER. What it actually should say is "These three Labour MPs" but once again they try to make it sound like a party-wide sentiment by throwing in the "all expressed disgust".

    Creasy said it was “the best example yet of why we need an independent process for antisemitism and sexual harassment complaints.

    The Jewish Labour Movement also criticised the decision and said it showed the “moral turpitude” the party was currently in. Chair Mike Katz said: “How dare the Labour party deny it is institutionally racist against Jews when it decides to take no action against Chris Williamson?

    “The silver lining is that while suspended from the party Chris Williamson couldn’t face a trigger ballot. Now he can be and I strongly hope he is deselected.”

    Ahhh, when it was Labour Friends of Israel being deselected it was like a dictatorship and the party trying to remove dissenting voices, but now it's ok. I get it.

    I despise these liars. Purge the lot of 'em.
