But he has aimed sniping jokes about the UK Jewish population saying they need a sense of humour among other things and the charges from within his own party are that he does not challenge strongly those who make clearly antisemitic comments. Doesn't sound like he can stand there and say he is innocent in this area to me.
I don't recall any specifics at all, but happy to be called out and that if you actually did - with a link of course.

Never said they were, I am not the one claiming a coup.
It seems I am not the only one claiming a coup.
Nigel Farage highlights awkward Brexit truth for Remainers and savages 'Corbyn coup'
NIGEL Farage has accused Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn of plotting a "coup" against the British people with his plot to seize power from Boris Johnson in a bid to block a no-deal Brexit.

Every one of them were voted in *a government FOR the people*
It turns out to be a case of *the government AGAINST the people*
I didn't see he attempt at humour perhaps you can provide a link.
Two and a half years for doing nothing on full pay , Nice Job.
as for supporting the IRA and Hezbollah politicians talking to an enemy is not a new thing it's called diplomacy
Corbyn told his audience: “[British Zionists] clearly have two problems. One is they don’t want to study history, and secondly, having lived in this country for a very long time, probably all their lives, they don’t understand English irony either”.
Well, Farage and others in UKIP did it for a couple of decades, the Brexit party is settling in to their short tenure doing exactly the same, perhaps you should send them bouquets?
I thought you were better read than this, I obviously misjudged your real views.

He came pretty damned close at the last election
Corbyn's advantage last election was the young vote being receptive to him. But now it's said that he's lost that boost because of his obvious reticence at Remaining and sitting on the Brexit fence. Fair enough, that's damaged his appeal to the young, but i'd posit that this dip will only last as long as Brexit. When Brexit is done, one way or the other, many of those disgruntled young labour voters will have nowhere to go if they want change, which they most certainly do (see the last election).

“The Conservatives have held students back for too long, saddling them with debt that blights the start of their working lives. Labour will lift this cloud of debt and make education free for all as part of our plan for a richer Britain for the many not the few.
“We will scrap tuition fees and ensure universities have the resources they need to continue to provide a world-class education. Students will benefit from having more money in their pockets, and we will all benefit from the engineers, doctors, teachers and scientists that our universities produce.”
Labour has said it will pay for the £9.5bn policy by raising tax on higher earners, making those with an income of more than £80,000 pay the 45p rate of tax and assigning a 50p rate to those bringing in more than £110,000 a year.
The party said its policy should give 18-year-olds another reason to register to vote before the deadline of midnight on Monday.

What's more, the Remain media say that a 2nd referendum would lead to a Rremain win
Because many pensioner-Leavers have since died, replaced by young-Remainers reaching voting age...
But at least Corbyn represents a move towards decisive leadership that wants to improve things with change, rather than the dysfunctional, broken promises status quo that the Blair/Brown-New Labour and Tory-centre ground snake oil sales pitch inherited from Cameron has led UK politics into.

If he were talking about the French or Germans would it still be offensive ?

Farage and others in UKIP (Brexit Party) are not elected officials getting paid from the public purse so there really is no comparison.

You're right, who needs sovereignty?
I say the more degrees of separation between the people and their rule makers the better. I'm with you all the way!

A near miss is still a miss and therefore no better than missing by a great
margin. Losing a game by one point is still losing........

The 'young vote' is a very small window (three years) before they are
in the 'real world' and see for themselves

The Govt. is going to suspend Parliament as early as the 9th September- Monday week.
www.bbc.co.uk...
This will mean that parliament only has a week to push through a vote of no confidence and remove the sitting govt.... that is not enough time for the process.
If the Queen agrees then Parliament will be suspended until just 2 weeks before we leave the EU.
It would likely mean that the traitors only have a week to push through a new law removing the no-deal option or try something last ditch in the final 2 weeks.
I approve of the move Boris is making here.
Parliament have proven that they do NOT represent the people at all. I would go further. Whilst suspended, I would seek ways to have every MP, who is acting against the will of their constituents, removed and then run by-elections in each of the constituencies.
