He was the Chief Rabbi for 22 years, Aaron. It's possible some other figures had heard of him before, even if you hadn't.
First thing leader of the opposition’s office should have done was examine record of 68 Rabbis signing letter. With most it is going to be a question of agreeing to disagree. Others like Sachs, will be right wing ultra-nationalists. Labour shouldn’t concede to such voices.https://twitter.com/AaronBastani/status/1034448170217091072 …

Nothing creepy about suggesting high profile Jews are suspicious and should be investigated. Nope, I hear no awkward historical echoes there.

You say, "Dreyfus Affair", they think "infidelity on the set of Jaws".

You know I’m totally stealing that, right?

DO YOU THINK MAYBE YOU SHOULD TAKE A LOOK AT THEIR CONCERNS AND MAYBE ADDRESS THEM BEFORE YOU MOVE ONTO DIGGING UP DIRT, AARON?
-
Pointing out that he writes speeches for Mike Pence isn’t ‘digging up dirt’ lmao. I literally won’t take seriously a claim made by him regarding Corbyn, no.

This is a man who calls the nation-state law a ‘lacuna’. Come on https://twitter.com/ronanburtenshaw/status/1034439798877024260?s=21 …

Have you read the nation state law? Do you know what it means within the context of Israeli society? Before you criticize, make sure you understand because to me you sound like someone who hates Israel for the sake of it
-
I don't know enough about it. What are the positives?
-
I'm not sure reading the law will help me understand how it fits into the context of life in Israel or for the people there. Do you recommend a source who writes about that?

Are you being for real or just trying to goat me?

Yes, excellent idea Aaron. Why not make a list of Jews and research their backgrounds? It must be a plot, mustn't it? They can not possibly be genuinely concerned can they? And btw, when you insult an eminent Rabbi, do check you have spelled his name correctly!

If prominent Jews sign a letter, the assumption is that they must be disreputable and need to be ‘researched’? It’s difficult to know which is bigger: the hole the Jezuits are digging for themselves or the space between their ears.

Jezuits - where did they come in?
-
Haha Jezuits. The Corbyn cult finally have a name.

As one of the 68 and a labour member I fascinated to know what record you want to look at. School reports? Degrees? Spotify playlist? You are seriously into antisemitic tropes sir and could do some teshuvah.
-
Was Sacks actually a signatory on the letter?
-
So he is suggesting Labour should investigate the 68 Rabbis, who represent every strand of Judaism in Britain, for what reason?
-
Because they’re Jews, innit. Bastani’s veneer has fallen and we all see him for what he is. His supporters don’t care because they share his repulsive views. The rest of us will always remember his Jew baiting and his support for antisemites like Corbyn and thick Derby Chris.
