This is a normal post Is Cerebus really getting upset on Andrew 'Brillo-Pad' Neil's behalf now?
Daily reminder that Neil worked for Murdoch, compared Tony Blair favourably to Winston Churchill, called George W Bush 'convincing and masterful', supported the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, employed David Irving...

This is a normal post I'm getting upset on behalf of what used to be the party I supported that is becoming rife with anti-semtism.

You're both occasionally cunts and occasionally agreeable in equal measure. But it's not a fucking competition.

Harman's comments were inappropriate, but have been taken wildly out of context by the red top brigade. Surprise sur-fucking-prise. Nobody comes out well from this story,despire the fact the more accurate headline should have been 'Harman Knows Holocaust Joke'.

This is a normal post Let's face it, if it was a competition, Cerebus would be too thick to post his entry.
And it would all be stuj's fault. In Cerebus' denty little brain.

This is a normal post For someone that makes some really offensive posts round here your taking this way too hard.
Why don't you copy and paste some "team spiders" ascii art to make yourself feel better.

Only you hardly ever get that right either.

This is a normal post Fuck off, can't you see I'm getting UPSET! ONLINE!
I think little Cerebus was comparing me to Andrew 'Brillo-Pad' Neil in his last post by implying that I've been offensive in the past and was now upset by him pointing it out. Which would make him the Harriet Harman of /links...

This is a normal post Sorry precious, I forgot we're not supposed to be offended by what you post here.
Tell you what you go back to insulting people, playing the plastic nazi persona and get a hard on when ever a spider is mentioned.

And we'll go back to tolerating it because it's you. You're special.

This is a normal post Well I meant the party at large really but it's not a good sign that she felt comfortable telling it without any kind of hesitation.

This is a normal post Except that she prefaced it with an explanation that it was an example of some of the hideous anti-Semitic shit endemic.
You're right though (on your other point): The labour party does have a huge historic problem of antisemitism that goes way beyond Red Ken that has never really been tackled.
(, Fri 3 Nov 2017, 13:47, Reply)
This is a normal post Well yes I pointed that out in another post here.
However it's breathtaking that she felt it would be ok to repeat it.
If I was making a point on racism I wouldn't feel comfortable telling a racist joke.Even if I had said before hand that I had read it elsewhere.
Stating that the interviewer would enjoy the joke was just stupidity.

As to labour antisemitism...
From what I can see coming out of the party conference labours getting worse.
They're well in bed with radical islam now.

This is a normal post Out of Context?
She prefaces the joke with "So, this was a Guy’s hospital rag magazine back in the day and people like Andrew say that these things are perfectly alright"

I'd be a bit miffed too.

This is a normal post So,just what part of 'context' do you not understand then Cerebus?
Of course Neil was going to act 'miffed' on air. But the fact that in a previous job he'd turned up at work in Nazi fancy dress and has told jokes like that in public can all be forgotten now because "OMG HARRIET HARMON MADE A JEW JOKE! Let's completely ignore the point and BURN HER! BURN THE ANTI-SEMITE WITCH!

F*** sake. I know being an MP nowadays is a minefield but how thick do you have to be. Although I can't tell you how much the jolly, laid-back bon ami air that pervades the shit smiling, jokey turdfest that is This Week...that caught her off guard...annoys me. It is the 2nd best politics show on UK TV...yes exactly.

This is a normal post You seem to be confusing use and mention.
She was quoting the joke, not telling it. It's a hugely important distinction.

This is a normal post Which was my point (though more succinctly expressed).
Sadly, in this twitter-led age of comments shorn of context and left for the loudest idiots to decry in electronic lynch mobs, MPs should show more caution.
Not to mention lobbying groups sniffing out free publicity, as is happening here, predictably.

This is a normal post So if she was making a point on racism would she be justified in repeating on air a racist joke she once heard?
Doubt she would get away with that.

It might be foolhardy, given the chance of wilful misinterpretation; but there're times when it'd be wholly justified. It rather depends on the nature of the (merely hypothetical) conversation in which it (merely hypothetically) happens.
(, Fri 3 Nov 2017, 15:51, Reply)
This is a normal post Well it would be if the ends justified the means.
If as a public servant you're repeating a holocaust joke on live tv which is going to offend / hurt a lot of people you better make sure the payoff is worth it.

True story, I once had a director that let slip to the board he had never heard of the holocaust. Because of that the whole lot of us were flown to Poland to visit Auschwitz for education. Fucking grim, the smell of human hair that had been cut from the prisoners still haunts me.

Krakow is lovely though, if you've never been your should.

This is a normal post not really (confusing)
I wouldn't tell or quote the joke on tv, especially if I was in a position of public authority like she is. She only needed to say that there were offensive jokes about Jewish people in the publication.
