you didn't tackle any if the substantive points
That pretty much describes his whole posting strategy: ignore most salient points; keep posting libertarian gotcha questions and/or wholly predictable "sources"; give no actual in-depth personal analysis on any issue; move on too quickly to ever be pinned down on anything.

That's what I'm talking about. There are Labour members with actual antsemitic views, but largely criticism of the policies of the state of Israel towards the Palestinians isn't antisemitic.
Corbyn has been targeted in a highly specific way because he is the first prominent party leader to advocate strongly for the rights of the Palestinians.
If you want I can point you to actual research, some from the Home Office, showing that genuine antisemitic views in the Labour Party are extremely low.
And that such views are far more prevalent on the right and in the Conservative Party.
Also, perhaps we should all just wait till the EHRC completes its inquiry and discuss then.
I'll also note that you didn't tackle any of the substantive points I made about the orchestrated erosion of the social contract, the economy and public services under Conservative rule for the past ten years.
