      There’s still a perception that the Labour Party are some how a hot bed of anti-semitism. In order to prevent giving any oxygen to that argument Starmer would literally let the IDF bomb British citizens if they wanted to.

    Strong “wasn’t coming to your party anyway” vibes.

    Interesting they only took this stance once UK police said they would be investigating the rioting this weekend and not before.

    What I really do not understand is what Starmer expected to happen if their fans did come over, absolutely zero chance that everybody behaves, some mild shenanigans from the Maccabi fans like chanting death to arabs, burning flags, and setting upon taxis, terrorism from Villa fans with their free Palestine chants?

    You know what pisses me off with this whole situation is that no one in the media is calling out their bullshit.

      Lisa Mandy lied in Parliament by saying the police report was about protecting Macabi fans from anti Semitism. This turns out to have been completely false.
