The selections for Labour candidates needs to be more democratic and we should end NEC impositions of candidates. Local Party members should select their candidates for every election.

Labour North Luke Akehurst Congratulations to Luke Akehurst, Likud's candidate for North Durham!

Reader added context ✅

Labour candidate for North Durham Luke Akehurst spread Alex Jones-style conspiracy about Gaza, claiming that Palestinian crisis actors staged videos of IDF atrocities.

At Luke Akehurst’s campaign launch a pro-Palestinian activist was assaulted. The far right supporters of Akehurst are not happy that the people of North Durham do not want somebody with his views representing them. We hope the activist is ok and send our solidarity ✊🏼

Seeing these pop up in Chester le street this weekend #lukeakehurst #labourparty

Luke Akehurst's partner - Linda Smith - who I believe is an Oxford Labour Party councillor (please say if I'm incorrect and I'll update) telling pro-Palestine demonstrators that they and their views belong in Iran. This is naked racism and bigotry.

Fucking hell... In a freshly unearthed 2023 interview, right-wing Labour candidate Luke Akehurst called the murder of Palestinians "incidental", said Israel had the right to collectively punish civilians and disgracefully stated Israel has the right to bomb civilian locations.

Video footage of Israeli 🇮🇱 army murdering Adam Farraj today as he prepared to attend his sister's wedding in the West Bank city of Nablus 🇵🇸 Look how they dragged his corpse away before it was left on a staircase Fascism Supported by Sunak & Starmer.

LoL

Keir Starmer said: “Israel 🇮🇱 does have that right" to cut water and power from Gaza 🇵🇸 Now he is silent over ICC arrest warrants for Netanyahu & Gallant 🇮🇱 for using “starvation as a method of war" Starmer is a genocide enabler. Never forgive him.

You're not offering change, Keith. You're offering 5 more years of austerity and Thatcherism, hence lifelong Tory billionaires fawning all over you. Corbyn offered change. You sabotaged him, used his policies to win the leadership, dumped them all and then kicked him out.

What a nasty lying walloper he is Do not give him your vote He’s fcking dangerous

Israeli troops are authorised to shoot Palestinian civilians in Gaza and burn down homes They always have been. From a +972 Magazine investigation

Centrists when Jeremy Corbyn was unpopular: "it's all his fault". Centrists when Keir Starmer is unpopular: "it's a concerted effort by the press to turn people against him; it's so unfair". The Labour Party
