Attainder is still legal in the UK. If this guy gets in, there is no telling what he might be capable of.

Hitler’s grandmother was Jewish. Corbin would fit right in.

Yes, I remember when Madeleine Albright ‘discovered’ she was ‘Jewish’. IIRC, John Kerry claims a Jewish grandfather or something. Lots of Democrats do it.

When is he going to say “i have Jewish friends”

And I like the way he used the word element. Usually not the most flattering term.

What a jerk.

When you call a country’s enemies your friends, then that country is your enemy most of the time.

With all of the muslims in the UK, I would think the last thing any politician would want to claim is Jewish ancestry.

Well then, Corbyn could save a lot of trouble if he would just off himself by sawing his head off to atone for his sin of the blood.

Straight out of the Hillary! playbook.

August 6, 1999, 10:59 AM
In New York, where one of every eight voters is Jewish, it certainly won't hurt that First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton can note the Jewish branch on her family tree... Mrs. Clinton, who is Methodist, "has very fond childhood memories" of the second husband of her grandmother, Max Rosenberg, a Russian-born Jew, said Howard Wolfson, a spokesman for the first lady's Senate exploratory committee...Mrs. Clinton angered potential Jewish voters last year by voicing support for a Palestinian state, but has recently told Jewish leaders she considers Jerusalem "the eternal and indivisible capital" of Israel.

No, it isn’t. And hasn’t been for some time.

I agree, because the UK, as we know, is mostly Muslim now and run by them.

Element? Sounds like a term the Nazis would use. I’m sure if this guy had some Arab blood, he’d be celebrating it.

Probably just another reason why he hates himself and his culture.

I have a Jewish sounding name in my family. My grandmothers maiden name was Issack, but I know for a fact she was not a practicing Jew, she was Baptist.

Jewishness (is that a word?) is only passed on by the mother. So Kerry claiming a grandfather was Jewish means nothing. When someone says (usually a disparate democrat politician) Oh, see, I like bagels and cream cheese. I must be part Jewish!, they are feeding voters' desires to delude themselves into thinking up is down, day is night, and bondage is freedom. The voters, in this case overly reform Jewish urbanites, let themselves fall for this hook and happily go for the self delusion because they are terribly concerned about what other people think - those other "people" being the self appointed intelligentsia and media.

Thank God for the Founders' foresight in creating the Electoral College.

Well, here’s a clue: don’t pal around with socialists. We can’t bail you out the next time.

No, it’s never been declared illegal like it was in the USA (Article 1, Sections 9 and 10); it just hasn’t been used since then.

Churchill was apparently considering attainder for the purpose of expediting the execution of Adolf Hitler and other Nazis during and after WWII.

So does John Kerry. I always find these declarations of Jewish ancestry bizarre. What is it supposed to mean?

Attainders by confession, verdict and process were abolished in the United Kingdom by the Forfeiture Act 1870.
