Frank Field, an MP who has talked about running as an independent since 2015, and who was about to be deselected for voting with the government to sneak through its Hard Brexit legislation, has gave up the Labour whip citing "antisemitism".
Lol, fuck off you old Tory fuck. Regular contributor to the Sun and admirer of Margaret Thatcher says he doesn't feel welcome in Labour because of antisemitism, I'm sure if the facts as they are were properly laid out, people would be able to read between the lines quite easily.
The fact that his exit is being presented as part of the "antisemitism row" as opposed to being part of his own self-serving agenda - which has long diverged from the party's - just shows the depth to which the media has uncritically accepted his side's claim as the pre-accepted, objective basis of reporting any story.
