Made racial remarks about a black Jewish woman? Become a Labour MP!

Right, so for as much as I’ve covered the candidates Keir Starmer is ridding himself of, on the left, critical of Israel and disproportionately women of colour, those he is busily appointing reads like a who’s who of the worst right wing elements of his faction. I have no idea what the collective noun for a bunch of Starmerroids is, a purge of Starmerroids, a grovel of Starmerroids, a betrayal of Starmerroids you can have fun playing that game yourself, and indeed I put this question out to my YouTube community earlier, the above suggestions my favourite picks, but to say these are rewards for services rendered, signs of brazen corruption instead of fair process and blatant abuse of alleged due diligence is an understatement, so have you had a Starmerroid forced upon your community – an imposition of Starmerroids, there’s another one – and if you haven’t do you really want people such as those I’m about to introduce you to, in positions of power, running the country?
Right, so Keir Starmer there, saying he’s not purging left wing candidates, he’s actually imposing the highest quality candidates, the trouble is when you look at those getting told they aren’t good enough, they have been disproportionately ethnic minority women and of course all have been from the left and all have been critical of Israel. The candidates being chosen to stand are all right wing, and overwhelmingly white and indeed to varying degrees, not critical of Israel at all. These are not high quality candidates, these are the quality equivalent to a Thames Water outflow and indeed when at least 5 members of the Labour National Executive Committee have been given candidacies, the people who decide who are the quality candidates, it is nothing less than brazen and public corruption.
Of course when we look at the Starmer candidates being imposed now – an easy excuse for Starmer now that Sunak has called the election, with so many seats still unfilled they haven’t time to do proper selections – the biggest name being spoken about is Luke Akehurst, an NEC member, a Labour fixer and a literal lobbyist for Israel.
It's really hard to not actually make this entirely about this guy, because, he is probably the most dangerous man in the Labour Party, and by virtue of being on the NEC has to all intents and purposes, picked his own seat as to where he wants to stand and he’s picked North Durham, where the outgoing retiring Labour MP, Kevan Jones, holds a majority of 4,700, though in 2017, this was nearly 13,000 and of course Akehurst is betting on those sort of numbers based on current polling, coming to him. Labour have held this seat since 1983, so he’s on the face of it, on his way to parliament finally, after failing to get there previously on his own merit.
This is a guy who couldn’t even get recommended for the NEC, by his own constituency in Oxford, even they can’t stand him. To say it’s an insult to the people of North Durham, that a guy from Oxford is now being imposed on them, is an understatement. It won’t just be the left that will be horrified at this hard right ultra Zionist being imposed on them, but the not at all left wing leader of the Labour group on Durham County Council was considered a shoe-in for this seat and Akehurst has basically just nicked his candidacy.
But it is impossible not to look past the fact that this very much devout Zionist, though not Jewish man, is a professional lobbyist for Israel, Director of We Believe In Israel, a lobbying firm with ties to the Israeli state via BICOM, British Israel Communications and Research Centre, Britain’s most pro-active Israel lobbying organisation and is also a Director of the right wing Labour faction Labour To Win, putting him in a particular position of spreading pro Israel influence within the Labour Party, not to mention censure of anyone even mildly critical of Israel as we saw, for example, in the case of Faiza Shaheen being dropped as a candidate, despite having spent 4 years building her local patch up into a seat Labour could win. And now Akehurst could end up in a position whereby if Labour win the election and he wins his seat, he could be making laws governing us all in that vein.
But when the question of being a high quality candidate comes, Akehurst should be a man Keir Starmer is constantly confronted about:
So outrageously pro Zionist it was a waste of time taking him to Israel to be converted he nearly said, and then opined on the matter of prominent black Jewish activist Jackie Walker, implying she was conflicted over her black and Jewish heritage, which is blatantly racist, as is another statement he made on twitter asking the question aren’t Jews politically black? A white non Jewish man preaching about a Jewish black woman, and nothing was ever done about this, no punishment, no enforced apology, no nothing, so how in which case can Labour say it has dealt with racism in the party, with someone like Akehurst, not only at their table, but now standing for them for parliament?
Here's a few more of he gems before I move on.
Here Akehurst has called the United Nations Antisemitic, so a journalist, in relation to the high quality standards Starmer espouses are being selected for his Labour, should be asked whether he thinks the UN is antisemitic and when he inevitably says no it should be put to him if the calibre of his candidates is so high, is Luke Akehurst an example of that high calibre when he thinks the UN is antisemitic and watch the worm squirm!
A week after the events of October 7th when illegal use of white phosphorus by Israel was getting coverage, Akehurst denied this publicly on Twitter, saying he didn’t believe it was being used and that human rights agencies who were raising this happening were making it up for fun.
Here Akehurst makes a point of detaching himself from We Believe In Israel, by talking about how he favours illegal Palestinian settlements, being integrated into Israel and that the illegally occupied Syrian territory of the Golan Heights should be retained by the Israeli state, it really is little wonder he’s been on a mass deleting spree of late, because nothing quite says I’ve nothing to hide, quite like that does it?
Fact of the matter is Akehurst has probably been to Tel Aviv more than he’s been to North Durham, but who he will serve more will be the choice before his potential future constituents.
If Akehurst was a lobbyist for Russia, the headlines would be wall to wall, yet he can lobby for Israel despite the ICC having filed arrest warrants against Israels Prime Minister, just as they did against Putin and the ICJ are investigating for potentially having committed the crime of genocide. Top quality candidate there.
He isn’t the only member of the Labour Party NEC to have effectively awarded themselves seats to stand in.
James Asser, the chair of the NEC will be standing in West Ham and Beckton, he’s the current deputy chair on Newham Borough Council and has been accused of being part of a move to prop up the lame duck leader of that council Rokhsana Fiaz.
Gurinder Singh Josan is another of the NEC getting a seat, he’s contesting Smethwick in the West Midlands, a guy who has been accused of bullying when a councillor in Sandwell, and was one of the three person panel who interviewed Faiza Shaheen the other day before deselecting her.
Another of the NEC involved in that Faiza Shaheen interview and one of the trade union reps on that body getting a parliamentary selection is Michael Wheeler, who will be standing in Worsley & Eccles. He’s in the right wing dominated USDAW trade union, so right wing that even his number two there Connor Rand has been offered a parliamentary seat, he will be running in Altrincham & Sale.
The fifth NEC rep getting a parliamentary run is Mark Ferguson, who is running in Gateshead, the NEC rep for the UK’s largest union and again right wing led, despite a left wing executive, so that’s fun, Unison.
But the rot goes further than just NEC bigwigs giving themselves safe seats.
Other selections that show what a scandal these Labour selection have been include Chris Ward, a former adviser to Starmer, who is now taking Lloyd Russell-Moyle’s seat of Brighton Kempstown & Peacehaven, after he was suspiciously suspended following a complaint on his conduct from 8 years ago all of sudden surfacing now.
Kate Dearden of the right wing Community trade union is running for Labour in Halifax, Georgia Gould, the council leader on Camden Council, in Keir Starmer’s constituency, a woman who has blocked any discussion on a Gaza ceasefire from happening and was a supporter of taking tents from the homeless appears to have got the nod for services rendered and is standing in Queens Park & Maida Vale and Shama Tatler is a Luke Akehurst lackey from Labour to Win and despite being from Brent, will be standing where Faiza Shaheen has been dumped out of Chingford and Wood Green, but then Tatler is a member of the Jewish Labour Movement and Shaheen was a pro Palestine campaigner.
The whole thing stinks to high heaven, these are not high quality candidates, they are right wing dregs. The left are being purged, the pro Palestinians are being purged, the people of colour disproportionately, unless they are right wing as Tatler and Josan show, are being chucked out too.
Faiza Shaheen is apparently now considering a legal challenge to her deselection, that will be fun to watch Labour defend, though courts are often loathe to involve themselves within party selections, however Labour’s really do bear looking at and if you want the full details of what Labour have done to one left candidate in order to get another Zionist shill in the running, believing those huge poll numbers as they clearly do and deciding they can get away with any bad press on this, you should watch this video recommendation here and I’ll hopefully catch you on the next vid. Cheers folks.
