But do you accept that you have to remove the, very key in the context of anti-Semitism, word "anti-Semitism" if you do it your way TOWK?
Which is actually the point that I am making here: there are pretty even amounts of actual-factual anti-semitism in all the parties yet if you use the word "anti-Semitism" to google for it you have to get quite fancy unless you want to be hit with a torrent of press stories, mostly tittle-tattle, attempting to link Jeremy Corbyn to anti-Semitism.

But Wotsit when I Google 'Labour candidate suspended' on page one of that Google search is several stories about the Tory candidate suspended up in Aberdeen. Now I have no idea how the Google algorithms work but that seems pointless to show me those stories when I'm not actually searching for suspended Tory candidate articles.

What she said wasn't even anti-Semitic tbh.
The Israeli troops in the Occupied PalistinianTerritories could fairly be described as "Zionist Israeli forces" and, even if they technically turn out to have been sent there out of a true sense of humanity and concern for Arab people, it's fair comment imo because they sure as hell act like they were sent there to be a "Zionist Israeli force"
Reasonable criticism of Zionism and Israel is not anti-Semitic.

Ah but the thing you have to remember Wotsit is that religious people are particularly adept at weaponising terms when the more questionable aspects of their ideologies face scrutiny. Any criticism of political Islam or Zionism is immediately dismissed as "Anti-Semitic" or "Islamophobic" and Odin help you if you even dare suggest that Jewish or Islamic organisations try to lobby government!
As for Andrew Neil, the guy was a member of the Conservative Association during his University days - Edinburgh if memory serves correctly. Go figure...

Dafc - I think you over simplify things there. The SNP quite rightly deserve criticisism over certain policies, such as the now Glasgow-centric Police and Fire services that we now have. I'd go as far as saying that we need a change of Government in Holyrood but the SNP will never be out of power because the Yes vote will keep them as the largest single party. None of the other parties are capable of governing or even perceived as such by the public. It's more than fair to say that Scotland is a Centre to Left-of-Centre country seen how about 80% of the electorate vote SNP, Labour or Lib Dem. Simply put, there is no credible pro-Yes alternative to the SNP and they will remain in power despite their poor management. I do reckon though that if they could get Philippa Whiteford and Joanna Cherrie into the Holyrood Health and Justice briefs, their fortunes might start to take an upturn.
In spite of their poor management, the SNP have by-and-large stuck to solid principles (public healthcare, free tuition etc) and a lot of the cost savings measures have been forced upon them because of Austerity and a reduction in the block grant despite what the opposition say. Yes, they can tax more but while Scotland remains under the jurisdiction of Westminster there are legal means to move money around and avoid the extra taxation by declaring in another part of the UK, which undermines the integrity of the whole system.
Frankly, the whole anti-SNP thing is getting boring because in reality Labour and the Lib-dems are quite similar in terms of ideology outside of the constitution yet the level of vitriol from them is just pointless. In fact, if either of those parties had any integrity they would back the SNP and enshrine their Liberal/Social Democratic values in a written constitution for an Independent Scotland rather than wrapping themselves in the British flag and enabling the Tories. Whether people like it or not, Independence won't go away as an issue in Scottish politics especially after Brexit.

BBC 'haven't yet fixed a date' for Johnson/Neil interview
The BBC is hosting a series of interviews with political leaders, questioned by Andrew Neil.
The 30-minute programmes with the SNP's Nicola Sturgeon and Labour's Jeremy Corbyn have already aired.
On 4 December, the Lib Dem's Jo Swinson will take the chair, followed by the Brexit Party's Nigel Farage on 6 December.
However, the BBC News press team says there are still "ongoing discussions" with Tory leader Boris Johnson, adding: "We haven't yet been able to fix a date."

I have to say the same thought has been going through my mind for some time now. It has however played out very badly for the Labour Party and the whole issue has been ramped up to a very unsavoury level. I say this as someone who wants to vote Labour but can’t while it’s driven by Corbyn, Seamus Milne, Len McCluskey et al. I hate the politics of populism though, and there is a very nasty feel to this election. An opinion piece in The Times recently likened the choice between Corbyn and Johnson to the choice between leprosy and rabies - I’m afraid that’s how many, many people feel right now, myself included.

Andrew Neil's interview of US conservative pundit Ben Shapiro is a classic. Because he was being asked difficult questions Shapiro assumed Neil had socialist leanings and accused him of being a 'lefty', much to Neil's amusement. He said he'd never heard of Neil to which Neil replied that he'd never heard of Shapiro until he'd done research for the interview.

Shapiro is typical of the post-truth right where they expect an easy ride from the media and run away when they are asked politely to explain the things they say rather than just spout off on their own terms like they are used to.
And, to be honest, they do seem to get an easier ride as a result of their petulance and snowflakery - for example I see that Johnston was on the BBC earlier showing us how to prepare a scone.
What he didn't realise is that he has probably created a massive scandal in Devon with his "jam first" nonsense :D
I also see that, in an unprecedented move, the Tories have released their campaign slogan for the 2024 election: "Let's Get Brexit Done"

It's good to see this being rooted out across society and hopefully we will begin to recognise that it is just that - something which exists across society and isn't the problem of just one political leaning.
I wonder whether Labour's problem here is that he Left holds itself to far higher standards with regard to equality and fairness, so that it is a much bigger deal when the opportunist scumbags emerge. We expect it if the Tories; racist Tory? Completely natural, move on. Racist Lefty? Complete scandal! And I am happy with that to be honest. I'm glad that the movement that I support holds itself to such high standards whilst defending its right to criticise atrocities abroad.

I also cannot believe the recent poll that Boris will win by 60 to 200 seats who in their right frigin mind would vote for a bunch of uncaring, snide, supercilious, lying, cheating party...... that are the Tory's

He's maybe a bit smarter than we give him credit for. He only needs to suffer these taunts for another week.
Who was it who said "Better to keep your mouth shut and pass for an idiot than open it and remove all doubt"? Andrew Neil would have exposed him for the charlatan he is, so he's well advised to dodge the invitation.
There are still plenty of voters out there who think he's charismatic and the man to lead us towards a bright new future.

We're getting into American territory, BPP. A former aide of the Donald explained during a BBC Hard Talk interview that many Americans voted for Trump even though they didn't agree with his politics because they admire a man who speaks his mind.
You couldnae make it up.
Most humans are seriously thick ina all honesty. I have an Hons Degree, but would probably struggle to boil an egg, and ironing shirts is as much of a struggle as any exam I've ever taken haha. I've no faith in humanity to make the right decisions

Well it looks like you are right to have no faith in humanity.
The Get Brexit Done problem seems to be that if Get Brexit Done you say or write Get Brexit done often enough then Get Brexit Done people will apparently decide Get Brexit Done to vote for you to Get Brexit Done even though they Get Brexit Done have no idea what Get Brexit Done actually means, they have no Get Brexit Done clue if they will be better or worse off afterwards and Get Brexit Done quite frankly they Get Brexit Done don't seem to care.

I can't help thinking those who use the 'GBD' catchphrase exhibit a very low intellect or a CGAF attitude, or both.
When the CGAF types use it, it's meaning is closer to GBH.
To the one who uses it most, I'd say, 'Get Back Devil !'
If that CGAFF type at number ten gets his way, what it will ultimately mean is
'Great British Disaster.'
