      Labour tell me that earlier reports of a candidate shortlisted in Birmingham Hall Green rested on a confusion about two men with the same name. The Majid Mahmood shortlisted for the seat is NOT the Majid Mahmood fined over comments on Facebook – and I’ve deleted those tweets

      I of course apologise wholeheartedly for passing on too hastily information from a previously reliable Labour source. It was a very bad error on my part, and one for which I will seek to make amends.

          You did the same when le monde diplo made a bad translation of a line I wrote and impugned my character. As if you are keen to make amends, we are all adults here.

          I remember that. Professor Finkelstein's judgement of Freedland is about right.http://normanfinkelstein.com/2016/05/27/jonathan-freedland-keeps-digging-how-low-will-he-go/ …

          Could you please clarify in a newspaper article that when you use the phrase ‘many Jews’ this is accurate but when you drift later in the same article to ‘British Jews’ this all-encompassing, massing of all British Jews into one mindset is not accurate?

          @Freedland Lying again about that mural in today's @Guardian then? What Corbyn said in full, and the 'filled with hideous caricatures of hook-nosed Jewish bankers' is a lie from you isn't it? Again? Say sorry to @jeremycorbyn & @MearOne then? pic.twitter.com/OcX2XyBlJ1

          I’d crowdfund that action vs Freedland for libel and defamation.
