Labour’s Antisemitism Problem

Labour in the UK had a terrible anti-Semitism issue, so much so they needed an inquiry and the removal of some MPs. Labour in New Zealand seems to have a similar issue, but are strangely silent on the issue, even as their MPs signal support for the genocidal attacks against Israel on Oct 7.

We all know that Duncan Webb, a Labour MP, is an apologist for Islamic terror groups and an inveterate antisemite. But who knew that Damien O’Connor was of a similar mind.

The Israel Institute has highlighted some of his activities on X:

Of course @DamienOConnorMP won't apologise. His recent history of posts shows he really does think 07 Oct was justified. Will @nzlabour @chrishipkins continue to support this?@dbseymour @SimonCourtACT @winstonpeters @chrisluxonmp #nzpol @theplatform_nz @NewstalkZB @NZStuff pic.twitter.com/o5mZz7LYAs
