About this deal

The dispute was set off by the release on Thursday of a long-awaited report by a British human rights watchdog about anti-Semitism within Labour. In 2019, the agency began investigating accusations that Labour dithered in its response to anti-Semitism allegations and interfered on behalf of Mr. Corbyn’s political allies. I hope Rachel Riley didn’t blow her whole budget on those Corbyn shirts, she’s got something else I hope she’ll be adding to her Fall/Winter collection https://t.co/H0rEF9mLrf I. Can. Friggin. NOT. It’s not just any old message you’re erasing. It was a friggin struggle against severe and brutal legalised racism.’

Corinna Gardner, keeper of the V&A’s design, architecture and digital department, said the Corbyn logo on the garment was “inherently digital in its translation of online culture and memes into material form [and] enables us to ask questions about the role of data and social media in the recent election campaign”. Bristol Street Wear, which donated the T-shirt, said: “It’s great to see the typically dismissed art form, ‘bootlegs’, given pride of place at the V&A. This T-shirt spoke to so many people. It was immediate, it was fun, it started debates, it was censored and it even got us into trouble – everything good art should.” For Mr. Starmer, a former prosecutor and human rights lawyer, rooting out anti-Semitism and repairing ties with British Jews has been a defining goal of his leadership.Hunt, the director of the V&A, said: “As the nation’s storehouse for contemporary design and fashion, we are delighted to acquire the Corbyn T-shirt. It is also a rather strong statement of our belief in curatorial autonomy.”

Wikipedia: Rachel Annabelle Riley is a British television presenter and mathematician. She is well known for demonising Jeremy Corbyn…with claims of anti-semitism against him whilst actively promoting racism herself. Gas. #RachelRileyMr. Corbyn retains his seat in Parliament, but loses, at least temporarily, any affiliation with Labour. The suspension had few precedents in the history of British politics. Only a little more than 10 months after an election in which Labour fought to make Mr. Corbyn prime minister, and just over six months since he stepped down as leader, Mr. Corbyn was no longer a Labour lawmaker. Added to this, it captures the current vogue for slogan tees and the growing influence of street wear brands,” she said. The V&A said the T-shirt was an example of “bootlegging”, where brands are repurposed for subversive effect. The shirt has a version of the 1971 Nike swoosh logo, with the brand replaced with Corbyn’s name. But Brexit is deeper and bigger than our relationship with the EU. We will never get past Brexit if we don’t understand why – when asked – so many millions said they wanted change. The people didn’t just speak. They shouted. Millions told us that the current political and economic system isn’t working. And they are right about that.

The fight exposed deep disagreements on the British left over what was fair criticism of Israel and what made use of anti-Semitic prejudices. And it has highlighted how certain strains of anticapitalism, a position embraced by Mr. Corbyn, have historically risked casting Jews as a class of rich conspirators oppressing working people. One of the most popular fashion items was a “Jeremy Corbyn” t-shirt which featured his name and a Nike-style swoosh underneath.One anti-Semite is one too many, but the scale of the problem was also dramatically overstated for political reasons by our opponents inside and outside the party, as well as by much of the media,” he wrote. “That combination hurt Jewish people and must never be repeated.” The arrest came about after police moved the demonstration onto the steps of St Martin in the Field, an Anglican church by Trafalgar Square, and made it illegal to walk on the pavement in front of the embassy.
