Labour’s Fabricated Anti-Semitism Crisis

ambivalent on this one. I came in expecting that the anti-Semitism stuff was all fabricated and left thinking, holy shit, maybe Labour DOES have an anti-Semitism problem (though whether it's worth than any other political party, I have no clue). I think the main thing I didn't realise is just how strong anti-Semitism seems to in the UK in the first place, and I guess I haven't been steeped in that sort of culture enough to really understand why (like honestly I don't understand why, pls help)

The Question of Leadership

on the two main perspectives of what politics is: as marketing (within a narrow scope of possible policies and potential candidates), and as social change determined by the power of various social groups within the populace

Recruit, Re-Tweet, Renationalise

proposals for building left hegemony with a focus on new media

  1. campus recruitment program focused on CS depts (GradLAB) to build digital tools for the party
  2. annual NetrootsUK events
  3. professionalise new media journalists/writers within the party? not sure (mentions Paul Mason, Owen Jones, Laurie Penny etc). basically influencers lol. Labour should offer them training and certification (don't know if I agree with the last bit)
  4. establish LabourLAB (incubator for new media and tech ideas)
  5. hire a party CTO
  6. hire a new media head (under CTO)
  7. create crowdfunding/donation website (BeRed), like the dems' ActBlue
  8. create new media advisory board
