Don't look at me, I am not defending any racist person, but I will defend anyone that has done nothing wrong  or been accused maliciously, eg Chris Williamson

Are you saying that Williamson has done nothing wrong? Or that he has been accused maliciously?

We are talking about the Chris Williamson who said that the party had been too apologetic about antisemitism, aren’t we?

 

We can talk about the Jackie Walker thing later, or his re-tweeting.  For now, let’s just focus on the notion that he thinks that Labour should be less apologetic about antisemitism.

 

Do you endorse that view?

The High Court has today found that the Labour Party treated Chris Williamson MP unfairly, and therefore unlawfully, when overturning a previous decision of an Anti-Semitism Panel not to refer Mr Williamson to the Party’s National Constitutional Committee (NCC). The Court concluded that there was no proper basis for the Labour Party’s decision, which had been influenced by legally impermissible and improper considerations.

No, it didn't "today" at all. That article is from last October.  Just like this one:

I've got some more recent Chris Williamson news though:

And RLB recently:

 

Quote

During her meeting with JLM last Friday, Ms Long-Bailey said she recognised that Mr Corbyn had lost the trust of the Jewish community.

 

She also angered many of Mr Corbyn's supporters by saying she believed suspended MP Chris Williamson should not be a member of the Labour Party and questioning why he had not been expelled.
