    British Labour Party tells candidate she is "too White and too Jewish"

    Was just scanning the English papers and came across this story:

    "The Labour Party has become embroiled in a race row after a prospective female councillor was allegedly told she was 'too white and Jewish' to be selected.
    Elaina Cohen claims that Labour councillor Mahmood Hussain said he would not support her application for an inner-city ward because 'my Muslim members don't want you because you are Jewish'. "

    The islamification of Britain continues. The Labour party have apparently clawed back most of the huge Muslim block vote since the Iraq invasion and I guess they can't afford to upset them, which is why open racism and sectarianism is now apparently permitted. I guess political correctness is only selectively employed by New Labour. Can you imagine the reaction if a potential candidate for a major British party were told they were "too black" or "too muslim"? There would be hell to pay.

    It is a sad reflection of our times, but if this had happened 5-10 years ago, there would be an outrage, but now it is hardly even news. Just imagine if he was told that he was too brown or Islamic. I wonder will searchlight be featuring Mahmood Hussain in their next issue.

    I can see why this candidate did not get the support going by this piece of gossip.

    "Womanising MP Khalid Mahmood, Labour's answer to Steve 'shagger' Norris, is at it again. Mahmood, 44, dumped two
    Muslim wives, both of whom had a child by him. Now the member for Birmingham Perry Barr has split up with married Jewish lover Elaina Cohen, left, an ex-Tory activist, but is coping well. 'I've met women friends for dinner but you couldn't say they were dates,' says coy Khalid."

    Shows the reverse-racism of much of the European Left.

    They are merely reporting a fact.

    A small point, but New Labour are no more. It's back to Old Labour in a big way.

    So basically you are saying that she is a liar. The facts are clearly stated. The poor quality of the Daily Mail is not the point, the story is still true, just take the comments that he made as the point

    The Mail tells one side of the story in an especially lurid manner from someone with an extremely dodgy record within the Birmingham LP. It would be worth waiting to see what the party investigation says.

    Likewise, the title to this thread is a deliberate falsehood. If, and only if, the story is correct then the objectionable comments came from a councillor and not from the Laboru Party. But hey, what's accuracy got to do with a Daily Mail story or the numpties that rely on the Daily Mail for their news.

    If this is indeed true, Mr Hussain should be ejected from the Labour party post haste. This sort of behviour is sickening in the extreme and the British Labour party should be ashamed of itself.
    If I could mass-sterilise the planet, I would. Seriously.
