      Owen Jones 🌹 Retweeted Rachel Riley

      A Brexiteer protester threw an egg at Jeremy Corbyn outside the same mosque which was attacked in 2017 by a far right terrorist, whose main motive was murdering Corbyn himself. The tweet you're quoting refers to Nick Griffin, *an actual Nazi*. You're in the absolute gutter.https://twitter.com/RachelRileyRR/status/1102271526425055232 …

      If @RachelRileyRR thinks it's acceptable to compare refusing to condemn an anti-fascist egging a Nazi with a rightwing protester egging Corbyn - who she is de facto calling a Nazi - outside a mosque targeted by a far right terrorist who wanted him dead, she has no moral compass.

      Remember, if you want solidarity from @RachelRileyRR, follow Count Dankula's example, just film yourself chanting "gas the Jews" over and over again whilst teaching your dog to Sieg Heil with Nazi imagery in the background.pic.twitter.com/eLpxMmOa3G

      Owen Jones 🌹 Retweeted Rachel Riley

      In the interests of fairness, here's Rachel Riley explanation for the whole Nazi pug dog incident. I suppose for me the question is - why give the benefit of the doubt to a comedian joking about gassing the Jews whilst demonising the left as monsters? 🤷🏻‍♂️https://twitter.com/RachelRileyRR/status/1075166043537063936 …

          And why selfishly pursue your personal conflict with @RachelRileyRR when you are seen by many as a spokesperson for a leadership trying desperately to distance itself from this kind of conflict?

          "Gas the Jews" is a mighty sick joke that doesn't any benefit of doubt No surprise said benefit given by someone who doesn't believe she "looks like a typical Jew" And was "Glad to be Aryan"

          Free speech allows you to criticise the government without threat from them. Anything else is not free speech, and you can and will be held accountable.

          Ok, you have had a spat with Rachel R. Just accept that your party has a real problem with anti semitism, and then actually do something about. Clue, the last bit is important! Socialism and anti semitism do not fit well together in Europe... #AntisemiticLabour #RachelRiley

          Still not sure RR’s basis for calling Corbyn an anti Semite. Seems her understanding of this extends to “doesn’t think Israel is entitled to murder Palestinians”. Never seen the man indulge in hate speech or conspiracy theories about the Jewish community, so struggling here...

          If you read her timeline you’d think anti semitism only exists within left leaning public figures which is utterly ridiculous.

          She sounded almost apologetic and like she’d had some self-reflection and took the opportunity to learn, until the ‘oh wait, that’s Jeremy Corbyn’ line. Utterly foul and childish. Also taking Gervais et al as her source of ethics of comedy gospel is... certainly a choice.

          She instigated the bullying of a young girl with anxiety issues as well. I don't get the impression that she has thought a lot about what she does. Narcissism is a problem of our times, we all have to, in order to compete, rise above the rest and ignore failings.

          Rachel simpered whilst giggling at "I don't look Jewish, do I?" in a TV interview Any reason to listen to her POV was lost in that moment of the most gross anti-Semitism
