One thing that really annoyed me about Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour Party is that they allowed hateful libels to flourish and the media to get away with it.

"Jeremy Corbyn was a Czech spy"
" Britain's Jews will flee the UK if Corbyn wins" (ie: Battersea Park will be taken over to set up a Treblinka style concentration Camp")
"Corbyn is a terrorist"

These obviously defamatory and vicious malicious lies-- so easily proved to be lies with the gutter media (and the BBC echoing them) wouldn't stand a chance in Hell of being defended. And it would have shut them up. Instead they flourished, became fact and were allowed to fester.

# They Go Lower We go Higher doesn't work today.

Cast your minds back (if you're over 80) to the some of the worst fasle claims made about Michael Foot .. rather simple rubbish about wearing a donkey coat to a Cenotaph ceremony as though it matter.

But since then the media has become highly concentrated and basically been allowed to absolutely decimate and libel any one of their chosen targets. Lord Leveson said it..no wonder they silenced his second Inquiry.

I applauded the McCanns for taking on the media who sett out to absolutely use them as playthings in their loss of a child..but by suing everyone of these outlets they shut the bastards up for good.

Jeremy Corbyn did the country no good service by ignoring blatant libels and allowing thm to flourish.
# Even the Chief Rabbi could have been hauled into the courts with his blatant and easily disproved falsehoods.

# Politicians can be criticized but only over their genuine actions and policies.
## I reckon public figures have a bloody duty to all citizens to haul defamers into court.
### Two Australian politicians used Libel Writs liberally..the late PM Bob Hawke slapped a libel writ on any journalist or publication that defamed him (he could take criticism although he usually gave back better that he got)

The totally corrupt old weirdo from New Zealand Sir Joh Belke Peterson when Premier oif Queensland did as well..mind you it worked the opposite in that case as the media were terrified of him to the point any old crook with a paper bag full of cash was ushered into Sir Joh's office with the result..the quite glorious beach of Surfer's Paradise has dozens of 20 story buildings inches from the sand and the beach is overshadowed by then by 4pm in the afternoon.
