Suspended for one and a half years from Labour - I am invited to my Expulsion Hearing with 5 weeks notice
With 5 weeks notice I have now been told the date of my hearing before the National Constitutional Committee, December 11th. I have to have my response in by December 1st.

| this is the real abuse that anti-Zionists receive but of course it goes unmentioned by the media |
This is of course the kind of justice you expect from Crooked McNicol and his apparatchiks. My investigative hearing was on May 30th2016, a mere 17+ months away. They have spent all this time assembling a case against me and now they expect me to have a response ready in under a month.

| both the Telegraph and Times withdrew insinuations of anti-semitism |

Letter in response to witch hunters  |
The fact that I have just come out of hospital after surgery or that I have child care responsibilities matters not a jot to these dessicated automatons. McNicol and his minions are determined to prove to the Zionist lobby and the Israeli State's representatives inside the Labour Party that they are looking after their interests. After the fuck up over Moshe Machover, McNicol is determined not to be thwarted a second time.

| My response in The Telegraph to the suggestion that comparisons between the Nazis and Zionists were anti-Semitic |
I guess it is flattering that it has taken 20 months in order to try and fit me up on bogus charges of anti-Semitism. As Alexei Sayle said on Sky TV last week, ‘most of the people who have been suspended from the Labour Party for anti-Semitism seem to have been Jewish.'
Of course this is not surprising since Jewish anti-Zionists are particularly detested by racist scum like Jeremy Newmark of the Jewish Labour Movement. Zionists hate anti-Zionist Jews much like the Nazis hated anti-fascist Germans. Why they even use the same insult ‘self-haters’against us. The real meaning of which is that you hate your race and nation and therefore yourself.
Jewish anti-Zionists stand in the same relationship to the Palestinian struggle that White Anti-Apartheid activists bore in relation to the Black Liberation struggle in South Africa
I have written to McNicol’s errand girl, Jane Fisher, explaining to her that I shall not be attending on December 11th and that I require far more time in order to prepare a case. Given the amount of time they have allowed themselves there can be no bona fide objections.

| once again the Compliance Unit and its NCC lackeys have leaked material to the press |
It would also appear that the press has once again been informed in advance of my being notified. Although the Compliance Unit refused to divulge exactly what I had said when I was suspended two weeks later, on April 2nd the Times and Telegraph both ran with detailed versions of what the evidence against me. The Telegraph stated that they had seen material from the Compliance Unit. This time the Jewish Chronicle has been tipped off in advance.
Below are some of the posts that I have carried on my suspension, including a transcriptof my investigation hearing.

| The Times 'clarified' its Compliance Unit fed article |
Below is the letter I have sent to Jane Fisher in response to an email from her:
It is now important that Momentum, which said nothing over Moshe Machover, begins to take the witch hunt seriously. When Israel’s lobby in the Labour Party seeks to be rid of people like Ken Livingstone, Jackie Walker or myself it does this in order to make Labour safe for a pro-American foreign policy and Netanyahu's military occupation.
The Left on the National Executive Committee also needs to begin growing a backbone. To date is has said nothing and done nothing.
The NEC Left needs to start opposing on principle the idea of witch hunting socialists whilst all manner of reactionaries and Blairites are allowed to run Labour’s civil service. But for McNicol’s refusal to allow resources to be used in Tory marginals at the last election, because he was too taken up defending Progress MPs, Labour could have won the General Election.
