Joan Ryan MP: This shot is taken from the Al-Jazeera documentary series The Lobby, in which Ms Ryan, chair of Labour Friends of Israel, is told by Shai Masot, the Israeli embassy’s then-political officer, that his government was providing a £1 million slush fund for her organisation to undermine people considered to be enemies of that country. Now she has been accused of data theft, is she more of a Liability To Israel? Click to enlarge
Labour has reported former party MP Joan Ryan to the Information Commissioner for an alleged misuse of data.
Ms Ryan denies it but there is strong evidence against her – as the Skwawkbox stated a few days ago. It seems to have been excellent information
Certainly, it seems someone connected to Ms Ryan, if not Ms Ryan herself, must have used Labour’s Contact Creator and Organise software to create and send an email to party supporters – after she had resigned the Labour whip.
But Ms Ryan’s claim, as quoted in The Guardian – that “neither I nor my office have accessed or used any Labour party data since I resigned the Labour whip and my membership of the Labour party” – means that she cannot be absolved of guilt if it turns out to have been one of her staff.
And if the crime is traced back to her, there could be international repercussions.
Ms Ryan was (and may still be, by all accounts) the chair of Labour Friends of Israel, in whose name she has already been found to have acted dishonestly, in smearing a Palestine Solidarity Campaign member as an anti-Semite.
Her position has made her the strongest ally of the Israeli government in the UK’s Parliament, as the manufactured “anti-Semitism” crisis has allowed LFI to push pro-Israel policies onto Labour in ways that have not been possible with other parties, like the Conservatives.
But that work will be for nothing if she is found to be connected with data theft – which is a crime.
Such a revelation would cast doubt on every comment and claim she has made in her role as LFI chair. It may even give rise to uncomfortable questions about her relationship with the government of Israel.
(It would certainly create doubt about the validity of any claims she has made about anti-Semitism in the Labour Party.)
And at a time when many citizens of the UK are starting to ask serious questions about the amount of involvement Israel may have in our affairs, I wonder of that country’s government would be able to tolerate such a blow to its credibility.
Never ceases to amaze me really as those stooges with Celt/Anglo names are always to the fore when we read of dalliance in evil for so many years as their users use them to burn out. Makes me wonder as to what family members of such as Ryan/Bliar and such like are to think as the spoils of paternal villainy grow weary in search of some new amusement…..
Well silly old me as I should think as eyes wide shut will always finds new amusement.
Sad really as I recall those miners being beaten by uniform thuggery as I passed on some Motorway or other way back then. Those hard working folk from mostly Welsh mining were just looking for a decent living standard. Those miners of course must have been related to Molly MaGuire folk of old Pennsylvania of another age I posit. Uniform thuggery again I have to suppose.
I remember digging holes in a part of old London Town when we had to go underground as we tunnelers were so unsightly overground. Sewage for the pop of Golders Green. Transport to the city out of sight. I wondered then as some old hack of a miner said of how the people we were building this for were not like us….We just worked for them….
I most sincerely hope the pic in the post tells of Ms Ryan having a really bad head-ache. Just give it time Ms Ryan and be assured at some stage you will use the other hand as you have the head bowed down.
PS. I hold no ill will to Ms Ryan and her ilk as I’m just way too old to hate… You Ms Ryan, and those of said ilk..You were given free will.
this woman is worth a penny with a hole in it..indeed, I hope she gets charged or disgraced forever…a traitor not only is to Mr Corbyn but to all good citizens of Britain who’s patriotism is only to Britain.
