British Voters Didn't Trust Corbyn
(Times of Israel) David Horovitz - After a landslide win for the Conservatives, the danger that Britain would be led by a lifelong opponent of Israel, a party leader who has allowed anti-Semitism to flourish in Labour, had been averted. Were Labour to have been narrowly defeated, some Corbyn supporters might have blamed the Jewish community. But most of Corbyn's most fervent supporters know that responsibility for a defeat so overwhelming can only be ascribed to the party leader himself. In an interview on Sky News on Friday, presenter Kay Burley asked Labour chairman MP Ian Lavery whether it all came down to voters' belief that "Your leader is an anti-Semite, and as a result they didn't trust him on the security and safety of the nation."
