Protocols of the Elder of Labour

Gerald Kaufman had a good day by his standards.

This afternoon in Parliament he referred to "the corrupt passport control and airport security system at Ben Gurion airport".

This evening (in Committee Room 11 of Parliament, at a public meeting about Jerusalem) he said that right-wing Jewish millionaires own the part of the Conservative party that Lord Ashcroft does not own.

What he didn't say is that he tried to claim £8,865 for a TV and regularly claimed £245 a month for "odd jobs", £5 below the £250 threshold where receipts were required....

His constituents must be very proud of him.

Don't forget the £1,850 for a rug imported from a New York antique centre - you wouldn't want to wipe your feet on that!
and the claim for £28,834 - more than £15,000 of which was paid - for improvements to his London home, after telling officials he was "living in a slum".
Currently heading the list of self-haters.

and how do you think Israeli Secret Service Operatives should travel around?, on Israeli passports?
Get real.

How quickly you lot forget.The Israel-friendly Maggie, Maggie, Maggie, threw the Mossad's man in London, Arye Regev out, out, out in 1988 over a similar incident. She also suspended intelligence ties with Israel, which were restored only by the Labour government. She also extracted a promise that Israel wouldn't do it again, upon which it reneged. Israel's other great Tory friend, William Hague, reminded us of that yesterday.

No, Jon, by using passports of dead people, or non-existent people, not those of living new immigrants to Israel. Such cack-handedness, no wonder Israeli intelligence has become an oxymoron.

I note that not one of these UK government spokesmen made clear that the Hamasnik was himself in Dubai under a false passport - indeed it seems that he made quite a career out of being a not so brilliant master of disguise.

As for dhimmi Kaufmann, another whore for the Muslim vote.

Moshezafarti, this was not a Mossad operation. Too many people involved. More likely it was "inspired" by Fatah and made to look like what they thought was Mossad.

What a load of rubbish, the words pot and black come to mind. The odious Kaufman with his O.C.D and cut glass grapefruit bowls is another hypocrite. Talking of hypocrisy read this but as they were not Israelis they didn't get expelled.

On April 6 this year, police raided the address and uncovered a “vast array” of sophisticated false travel and identity documents, forgery equipment, including more than 2,000 counterfeit passports, identity cards and National Insurance cards.

Officers from Metropolitan Police Service's Organized Immigration Crime Unit, Operation Maxim, part of the Specialist and Economic Crime Command, SCD6, and the UK Border Agency took part in the operation, and described what they found as part of a “large scale” passport and forgery network.

Investigations found Valmir Gjoshi, 21, of Highwood Court, Finchley Road, had arranged for the factory to be set up, while 36-year-old Malik Cherad, from Muswell Hill, acted as a middleman, passing data for inclusion on the forged documents to two brothers, Imail, 23, and Andi, 21, Hasko, who lived at the address in Bunns Lane.

The Board of Deputies is asking Labour to withdraw Kaufman and Linton as Labour Party candidates in the election.

This is dynamite. Linton is going to lose anyway (he has a tiny majority) but if Labour withdraws the Whip from Kaufman and puts a new candidate into Manchester Gorton, then the vote might well be split and they could lose the seat (probably to the LibDems).

Such is the tightness of the vote, this could make the difference for Labour between being voted out of office and managing to cling on.

I wonder whether the Bored of Deputies has asked for the Tories to withdraw the whip from Tim Archer, its candidate for Poplar and Limehouse.
He has quite close and interesting relationships with the Islamic Forum for Europe’s headquarters, the East London Mosque, one of the most extreme in the country.An active politician in Tower Hamlets, he must be aware of the stories that the Telegraph, Channel 4 and this blog have run about the mosque.
Mr Archer is perfectly willing to allow himself to be used as a pawn by Islamists if he thinks there might be a few votes in it.
Mr Archer’s opponent in Poplar is a brave witness against East End Islamism, Jim Fitzpatrick.
But you won't mention that, eh Jonathan?
