I AM not a historian. The relationship between the Jews and the Nazis is something about which there is an accepted opinion and I have no knowledge enabling me to question it. If I had and thought it important enough to comment I might do so.

For me to do so wouldn’t cause waves but the former mayor of London has influence.

Furthermore, if the Labour Party sought to expel me for what I had to say I would put my own opinion and knowledge above remaining in the party. I am critical of the actions of the Government of Israel and to me it seems to be above any sanction for what it does.

I don’t think I’m anti-semitic but to me the reaction of some Jews is arrogant, and were I to meet them I would let them know my opinion.

I note members of the Labour Party are expressing opinions and making the party look more and more divided.

Have they given up fighting elections?
