I caught that when I tried skipping through
Why would he know everything people he has never met said - especially as he was never leader?
and how is the views of 0.0012% of the party (some of who have been suspended already) considered a major party problem?
Not siding with Ken, just wondering what the fuck is wrong with the media these days

It's funny the prejudices and bigotry that pinkos like you get your knickers in a twist about,
and those you just shrug your shoulders about and say "Meh, no big deal."

At what point have I said anti-semitism is no big deal?
I'm just confused by the blaming of everyone other than the shits themselves

You made up a statistic to support your argument.
Your stat has no basis in fact. You claim, again with zero evidence, that all anti-semites have been suspended. But most tellingly of all, after several publicly elected officials, from councillors to a M.P., have be proven to express anti semitic views, and subsequently suspended, you ask how this is "considered a major party problem."

haha, you're funny
the .0012% was just based on your saying a dozen (I mistakenly thought there were a million Labour supporters, its half that, so 0.0024%)
I also didn't say all semites have been suspended, I said some, which was just what was said in the link you posted.
And working purely on numbers (I don't have a list of names or roles held) a dozen out of half a million is a very small minority.

Yeah mate, no big deal.
It's a big deal if a UKIPPER or a Tory is rude about a muzzy, but a bit of Labour Jew bashing? That's just the hysterical right wing media making a lot of fuss about nothing.

Ha!
The BBC's coverage online has hardened significantly since the story broke and Ken started digging deeper as he toured the studios (LBC, Daily Politics, World at One etc). After the disastrous first interview at LBC that sealed his fate the headline read "Livingstone attacked for defending MP in anti semitism row". Within an hour the word attacked was changed to criticised. Now the line is he has been suspended because he's been a naughty boy. It took them over two hours to come round to that point of view. They went easy on him for as long as they could.

I've no love for Ken
In fact I think he's a complete arse. However I can't help but feel deeply uncomfortable about this. Criticism of the actions of state the of Israel is not the same as criticism of Jews. It requires careful handling because it's a sensitive area and I think that's probably where Ken fails as that interview shows him as a bit of a dinosaur.
What the others were suspended for was clearly beyond the pale, but I'm failing to see a single thing he's said there or indeed anywhere as genuinely antisemitic.

You need to look into what the woman he was defending said.
Also telling a Jew on the radio that anti-semitism is not racism. I'll see if I can find the audio. I'm not racist but only a fucking cunt would say something that stupid.
