You too are guilty, almost exactly to the letter, of the EHRC’s findings.
I entered EHRC into Google and this popped up at the top:

Equality and Human Rights Commission. Promoting and upholding equality and ... Leaving a more resilient EHRC. by David Isaac. 6 Aug 2020.

David Isaac is one of their top people, with a 100% Jewish name.

His name is Timothy and he probably isn't Jewish, Jewish surnames have spread into many gentile populations.

A combination of two or three Jewish name for one person usually comes from from Jewish couples whose Jewishness is at the heart of their lives.

Of course the EHRC would probably decide I was being anti-semitic in saying that, which would amuse my Jewish relatives.

Keep looking, there’s an excuse for Labour in that barrel somewhere.Might be at the bottom, so you’ll need to do a bit of scraping.

Total deaths for 2020 (up to week 42, 16-October, England + Wales): 484236
previous 5-year average for same period: 429114
Difference, mostly but not all directly Covid deaths though: 55,112

What happened 6 months ago isn't really relevant. It's how it is now that counts, and now there are 20% less people dying that before covid.

Covid's almost killing as many as cancer (450 a day) again. accusing others of believing what they read and having nightmares is - so - ironic. Brings to mind Freud's joke about two Jews meeting in vicinity of a bathhouse. "Have you taken a bath?" one asked. "no, why is there one missing?" replied other. Were not all stealing baths.
A bit racist isn't it? Do your twitter mob know you post things like that?

My Christian name is Jewish and my surname is Nazi. Do they cancel out, or am I both?

Labour doesn't need any excuses for things they are not guilty of, the EHRC charges are not just wrong, they are an obscenity.

It is precisely because Labour rank human rights and equality at the forefront that led to this whole issue, their refusal to accept any criticism of Israel as being anti-semitism, this being part of thei defence of Palestinian human rights.

I'm firmly on that side.

Now we have the reproduction factor around 1.5.
This week, 300 die of Covid a day in hospitals, next week, that number will go up to 500 and by the end of November, 1,000+ a day.
We'll still have another 100+ days to go before the weather warms up again to reduce the virus's virulence.
4 out of 5 deaths at the moment are over 80.
When half of the over 80 have succumbed, the dying will get younger.
That will be my lot next.
You were in hospital and witnessed the disease yourself, I only saw it on television when the BBC camera went to Italy and Spain. It is frightening enough.

Neither, individually they mean little. Once names with a very specific association are paired or tripled in naming someone, there often follows specific associated behaviours,]

There are numerous examples, but in the present context, quoting them leads to false accusations of anti-semitism.

When the elderly, the weak and the feeble have been wiped out, the daily death rate will decline. The younger fitter people left behind will survive in greater numbers per 1000 infections.

Perhaps. In some african countries (south africa) a hypothesis is that hats why infections are now less (a kind of herd immunity). But they have pyramidal demographics, lots of young - we have bell shaped (lots of old). Theres an awful lot of dying before we have a developing countries demographics

It is a famous freudian joke about displacement activity. Next time you see your psychiatrist ask him about the freudian joke about the Jews (s/he will know and explain it to you)

What I witnessed was an empty hospital. 4 years ago, I was in the same ward. A manager came round every day to see who they could kick out to make room for somebody else. This time in July, there were only two patients in the ward with 8 beds for most of the time I was there.

Not really that jocular, is it?
You need to keep your racist beliefs to yourself and not spew them over a public forum

God-forbid some of those stereotypes are real though huh? It's how we culturally rub up against eachother.

Racist? So all stereotypes are now invalid? Is that what you want?
