What Aletha Adu's "apology" tells us about The Guardian

Aletha Adu's churlish apology for slandering Andy McDonald uncritically repeats a partisan Labour Party attack line, whilst ignoring to the fact he was actually punished for calling for peace.

The Guardian journalist Aletha Adu ended up having to post this churlish "apology" after slandering Andy McDonald on Newsnight, where she falsely claimed that he’d been suspended from the Labour Party for making antisemitic remarks when he did no such thing.

What he was actually punished for was calling for peace between Israelis and Palestinians, which would only be considered "deeply offensive" to those who support continued Israeli persecution and apartheid against the Palestinian people.

When people began to reply to Aletha Adu’s "apology" to quote what McDonald actually said, she simply turned the comments off.

Labour have tried to pretend that McDonald’s use of the phrase “from the river to the sea" to describe the region is rooted in antisemitism, however their argument falls to pieces entirely because the Israeli Prime Minister has also used the same phrase to describe the region.

This is what Netenyahu said:

"In the future Israel has to control the entire area from the river to the sea" [source]

It’s stunningly hypocritical for the Labour Party and their lackeys at the Guardian to pretend that a call for peaceful coexistence "between the river and the sea" is deeply offensive, while outright ignoring the depravity of Netenyahu’s call for perpetual Israeli occupation, domination, and denial of Palestinian liberty "from the river to the sea".

So who is this Guardian reporter who is so willing to do Keir Starmer’s dirty work that she slanders people on the television, uncritically regurgitates deceptive Labour Party attack lines, and then switches off the ability to call her out?

Aletha Adu was hand-picked by the Guardian Foundation who paid her tuition fees to do a Masters in Journalism at City University London.

After a stint writing scurrilous and titillating dross at the S*n (such as an article about women sharing their bare arses on Instagram complete with pictures of the bare arses - no I’m not going to link it up) she came back to the Guardian fold as a political correspondent.

Now she’s repaying the free university tuition gifted to her by the Guardian by carrying out political hatchet jobs on the kind of Labour left politicians who believe that university studies should be free for everyone, not just a hand-picked minority like her.

The Guardian were at the forefront of the assault on Labour when the Party was actually being led by socialists, continually hyping up the "Labour antisemitism" furore, and endlessly platforming all of the most rabid Labour right ghouls to sabotage the Party from within, and hurl slurs at anyone who believed in Corbyn’s mild democratic socialist plans to make Britain a little bit fairer, and a little bit less corrupt.

The Guardian wilfully helped Boris Johnson win the 2019 general election and delivered their own worst nightmare of a diamond hard Brexit in the process, purely to get rid of Corbyn and hand the Labour Party over to the pro-austerity, pro-privatisation, establishment-endorsed hard right they want in charge of it.

Once they had their guy in position, and were satisfied the party no longer posed any threat to capitalist exploiters, greedy landlords, and the tax burdens of well-to-do journalists like them, they had nothing to say about Starmer’s cynical move to stitch up the Labour leadership nominations process to exclude women, socialists, and people of colour.

They’ve kept on pretending not to have noticed all of Starmer’s broken pledges or that he’s every bit as cynical, power-hungry, and dishonest as Boris Johnson.

They’ve downright ignored the way Starmer has hounded more Jews out of the Labour Party than any other leader, whilst uncritically regurgitating his false assertions that he’s dealt with the antisemitism issue.

And they salivate at every opportunity to assist Starmer’s efforts to purge the Labour Party of genuine left-wingers on the flimsiest of pretexts, while they give carte blanche to the Labour right to do whatever the hell they like.

Thus the Guardian sees no problem whatever that Andy McDonald can be suspended and accused of causing "deep offense" for nothing more than hoping that Israelis and Palestinians could one day co-exist in peace, while Starmer’s shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves can repeatedly praise and whitewash the legacy of one of Britain’s most rabid Nazi-supporting antisemites with impunity.

And Guardian hacks like Aletha Adu have proven their willingness to keep on assisting this repulsive and profoundly hypocritical Starmerisation process by continuing to weaponise accusations of antisemitism for factional political purposes.

And if this dishonest and accountability-averse Guardian hack follows the usual playbook that’s so prevelent in the toxic Guardian swamp she inhabits, don’t be surprised if she resorts to the cry-bully tactic of centring herself as the victim in all of this, and pointing to the angry social media reaction to her lies as if she’s suffering online abuse.

Maybe she’ll write a book about it?
