The war against basic rights for trans people is not that of a party that values human rights for all parts of society.

The position is bad on trans rights. It's not fascism.

The denial of basic rights for vulnerable groups is one of the big red flags on the way to fascism.

I will answer that. Willingness to use elements of, yes. Evidence: Ignoring the GFA Ignoring the rule of law for the TCA Lack of citizens rights regarding trans & EU / UK citizens Supporters of genocide Engaging in performative racism Watching people drown in the channel Treatment of aslyum seekers

So do you think in 100 years time students of fascism will do a labour party module between the Hitler and Mussolini?

It maybe a good idea if you read 'The Wave' book by Todd Strasser. This was one of the books I had to read at school. The CoE, ECHR and the EU were established in order to protect citizens from people with a lower regard for the rule of law and citizens rights than their political tribalism.

Stuart, with respect. Don't tell me to go and read a book when you've just said that the labour party are an example of a fascist political party. It is totally absurd which is why you won't say it plainly and only through implication.

The UK is in the mess that it is in because people like you refused to listen. I wish to have no part in what you are supporting.

You have to admit that their attitude to immigration is both robust and chillingly familiar.

If you refuse to refute the vile bigotry and xenophobia of the extreme far right & indeed ape their racism you ain’t that far from being a fascist party.

If you do not voice any opposition to the actions of a fascist U.S. President and indeed go out of your way to frequently ‘Kiss his ring’ you ain’t that far fm being a fascist party.

Like I want you to write. "I believe the labour party is an example of a fascist political party". Can you sign onto that statement?

When at school we learned about the Weimar Republic we also discussed in detail how the behaviour of other parties enabled the rise of Nazism. I hope that future generations will not need to discuss how Labour enabled the rise of fascism in the UK.

Timo, I'm still not sure on your opinion. Are the British labour party an example of a fascist political party? Yes or no. Don't tell me about the weimar or your schooling. Just commit to it first and then you can justify it

I have said earlier that this is not a binary question. That‘s all the answer you get.

It is a binary question Timo. You either are a fascist party or you are not. You simply don't want to say something that you know is stupid, but you do want to continue to use the political attack. That's pathetic.
