The internet was awash with this rubbish in 2016, which was OK-ish as it's based on fairly common economic misunderstandings. To still be peddling it more than three years later implies either a total dearth of interest in the evidence or a disrespect for the reader. https://t.co/3FsEkBoDgl

Theresa May & Jeremy Corbyn at their mutual worst at her penultimate #PMQs. You’re racist. No you’re racist. You hate Jews. You hate Muslims. No apology or sincerity from either. Weaponising prejudice for political point scoring. Neither party is tackling its own bigotry

— Ayesha Hazarika (@ayeshahazarika) July 17, 2019

It’s May’s penultimate #PMQs. Corbyn goes in on climate change. @SKinnock on our PMQs panel thought he’d go in on No Deal. May ignores his question and raises anti-semitism issue “you still haven’t opened your eyes, you have failed the test of leadership. Apologise now”

This #PMQs is painful. Tories haven’t got a leg to stand on: Windrush, the hostile environment and their failure to tackle Islamophobia. But @jeremycorbyn has lost the moral high ground through his failure to act on antisemitism – is instead left throwing mud from the gutter.

— Wes Streeting MP (@wesstreeting) July 17, 2019

The penultimate May/Corbyn #PMQs underway. I remember when it was always “your Welsh NHS is worse than my English NHS.”

Now it’s your antisemitism is worse than my Islamophobia.
