Labour MP seemingly denies genocide to attack the Greens

In October 2025, the UN found that Israel was committing a genocide in Gaza. The UN wasn’t the first body to come to this conclusion, but it was one of the most significant. On 24 February, Labour MP David Taylor seemed to describe the ‘genocide’ label as a ‘baseless antisemitic conspiracy theory’.

This is genocide denial:

If Taylor wasn’t referring to the genocide, he needs to hire a social media person pronto, because how else is a person supposed to read the above?

Disgusting

The exchange began with the following:

Someone needs to explain to us why it’s “vile” to highlight that an unusual number of politicians have taken an unusual amount of money from a foreign power and its supporters — a foreign power responsible for a genocide — a foreign power which subjected Palestinians to decades of apartheid before that.

The above donations all come from notorious Israel-backing lobbyist Trevor Chinn.

Many Labour politicians have taken money from Israel and Israel-linked donors, and the term ‘Israel lobby’ is entirely in line with how we describe other donation sources (e.g. ‘the oil lobby’).

If the same politicians had taken the same sums from Russia, the above diagram would still exist, but it would say ‘the Russia lobby’.

Oh, and we assume the Trevor Chinn donations can’t be the ‘baseless antisemitic conspiracy theory’ Taylor responded to, because they were all declared. ‘Declared’ does not mean ‘ethical’, however.

Legalised bribery is still just bribery.

Ali responded to Taylor as follows:

The National reported the following on Taylor:

According to his register of interests, Taylor does not appear to have received money from Chinn, who has been the chair of a number of motoring companies such as the AA, the RAC and Kwikfit.

He is currently vice president of the Jewish Leadership Council, which lashed out at the Labour Government’s recognition of a Palestinian state last year saying it was a “reward for terrorism”.

Chinn has funded both Labour Friends of Israel and its Conservative equivalent, according to Declassified UK. Between 1973 and 1993, he was chair of the Joint Israel Appeal, a major fundraising organisation for Israel.

Education

Ali responded as follows to Taylor on 24 February:

It looks like you need me to continue your education. The Green Party has never been a single issue party, people and the planet first, right from its inception! Not big business, not billionaires and not genocide! Which is exactly why people are ditching labour! You still haven’t told us how much?

Taylor responded:

“You still haven’t told us how much?”

Words that show what a party of hate & division they’ve become. Just like Reform. Two sides of same coin, cynically pitting communities against each other to gain votes.

Hoping folks in Gorton & Denton reject them, and vote Labour on Thurs

Yes, we’re sorry Taylor; we want to know how much money you Labour ghouls are taking from foreign powers and billionaires. We also want to know the same about Reform, which is why we publish stuff like this:

Labour — End of the crime

The era of ‘if you point out what we’re doing, you’re an antisemite‘ is over, and this is where it led:

Oh, and this is where it’s heading in Gorton & Denton:

Do you remember when the Labour Party at least used to care about electability?

Because it seems like they’ve thrown it all away to defend the indefensible.

No wonder people think it’s all about the donations.
