Hello Luciana. You have my absolute solidarity and support re: the disgusting abuse you're received and documented. It's vile and unconscionable. Beyond that, however, here's what I think.

I don't think you joined Labour to change the world or achieve real social justice. I think you joined Labour because of personal ambition. That's borne out by your being parachuted into a safe seat regarding which, at the time, you knew nothing.
-
It's also borne out by your extraordinarily weak record on challenging the Israeli government on more or less anything; and your desire to ignore the very real problems with several of the IHRA examples, and misrepresent Labour's code of conduct.
-
In 2015, through Corbyn's election, Labour changed. Suddenly, it was no longer a party in which you and your fellow 'centrists', like Chuka, could expect to one day lead. You've had no idea what to do with yourself since - other than oppose Corbyn and try to get rid of him.
-
A fairly remarkable position, given the enormous amount of funds, members and energy which Corbyn has brought to the Labour movement: which was bankrupt, broken and without a clue before he was elected. Indeed, that's a large part of WHY he was elected.
-
Right now, the UK has its worst government in living memory - maybe, ever. This government is doing unspeakable things on a daily basis to the most vulnerable people. Socialists fight for those people and stand up to such a government. You prefer smearing Corbyn instead.
-
In that regard, the Tories must love you. I highly doubt most of your constituents do, though. If you feel unwelcome, I'd suggest it's because you've done little other than undermine the leader and the movement he's delivered at each and every turn. Helping the Tories, not Labour
-
I write, incidentally, as a Jew and grandson of a Holocaust survivor. I know precisely where antisemitism can lead. Which is why I'm happy that Labour held an investigation, reported on it, then developed an excellent code of conduct. Which you chose to misrepresent.

Then take a stand and leave the party. Force a bye-election and stand as an independent candidate against a real Labour candidate who buys in to real Labour values. Let's see how you get on.
-
The “real” Labour values which led me to join
@UKLabour were that of anti-racism and equality. -
So equality means standing by people who also wish for equality? Those people being the Palestinians. Or do you pick and choose?

Luciana Berger was parachuted into a safe Liverpool seat because she was a friend of Euan Blair. She's Blairite to her core. And like all true Blairites, she'd rather subject her constituents to brutal Tory austerity than allow Jeremy Corbyn to become PM.https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/crash-landing-for-labour-candidate-parachuted-into-liverpool-1951962.html …

ALL MP’s are parachuted into Constituencies because none of them grew up in that area. As for Luciana Berger, she says what we all say! Jeremy Corbyn, Momentum are unelectable despite what Owen Jones says. Who wants a Pro-Terrorist PM?

We've already got one. Her name's Theresa May. She supports a Saudi Arabian government that regularly chops its critics' heads off, subjugates women, punishes gays and bombs children in Yemen. They're like a posh ISIS.
-
She also supports the Israeli gov't killing unarmed men women & kids medical staff that are attending to the injured press that are reporting on the killing that are been killed to so as to stop them from reporting to what is really going on

Wasn't she kodaked sipping presecco
in the fake nation recently??? -
Brilliant analysis by
@Jonathan_K_Cook on the problems over anti-Semitism "They've settled on anti-Semitism as best weapon to use against Corbyn b/c it's such a taboo issue. Like quicksand, the more he struggles the more he gets sucked down into the mire"https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/israel-s-hidden-hand-behind-attacks-jeremy-corbyn-139423040 … - 1 more reply
