Left Wing Tolerance: Jews, Whites Need Not Apply
Britain's socialist Labour Party wants you! Unless, you are white or Jewish that is.
A Labour Party activist has been told by a Labour councilor and former lord mayor of Birmingham, Mahmood Hussai, that she is 'too white and jewish' to run for a seat on the city council.
The problem is when leftists talk about 'multiculturalism', they automatically exclude certain cultures not to their liking.
Leftists often turn a blind eye to this so-called 'reverse discrimination' but often eventually become victims themselves. Maybe they will learn something. Don't hold your breath though.
For more on how the Left is tolerating and nurturing anti-semitism and anti-white racism in an effort to score votes see this: Labour woman told she is 'too Jewish' for Muslim voters. Sadly, that's probably true

Providence College blocks speech by ex-congressman
PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Providence College has blocked a campus speech by former Colorado congressman Tom Tancredo, a vocal opponent of illegal immigration.
The Roman Catholic college said in a statement Monday that the student group that planned to host Tancredo, a conservative Republican who ran for president rather than seek a sixth term in Congress, was not officially sanctioned.
It also said Tancredo's stance on illegal immigration "directly contrasts" with Roman Catholic Bishop Thomas Tobin of Providence, a member of the college's Board of Trustees.
Tobin called on federal immigration authorities last summer to halt mass raids and to grant conscientious objector status to agents who refuse to participate in such raids.
Terry Gorman, founder of Rhode Islanders for Immigration Law Enforcement, said the student group -- Youth for Western Civilization -- contacted him after its bid to host Tancredo was denied.
The organization will host Tancredo on Wednesday at the Pawtucket VFW building where it normally meets. Gorman said Tancredo would speak that same day at the gates of the college.
"They called me and asked if there was a way that I could provide a forum for him to speak," Gorman said.
Tancredo briefly sought the Republican nomination for president but dropped his poorly funded campaign in December 2007. His speech earlier this month at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill was interrupted by a student protest.
Tancredo was elected to Congress in 1998 and was known for his strident views on illegal immigration. He proposed an unsuccessful bill that included limiting citizenship to children born to at least one parent who was also a U.S. citizen or lawful resident. And he once referred to Miami as a "third-world country."
Gorman said the college was being hypocritical because it has hosted politicians, including Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., with pro-choice views. But college spokeswoman Patricia Vieira said those speakers were brought to campus to speak on topics other than abortion.
Tancredo's speech was to have focused on illegal immigration.
"If a similar request to host a speaker on this topic is made in a future semester, the College will encourage and facilitate a format that allows for multiple points of view to be expressed," the school said in a statement.

Providence College blocks anti-immigration former congressman’s speech
A Tuesday statement from the Diocese of Providence said that Bishop Tobin was not involved at any time in the decision to prohibit Tancredo from speaking.
“Nonetheless, as the local Bishop and as a proud member of the Board of Trustees of Providence College, Bishop Tobin fully supports the decision of the administration regarding this matter,” the diocese said, adding that the bishop appreciates the college’s recognition of the Church’s position on immigration in the United States.
The diocese’s statement said Bishop Tobin has called for “comprehensive immigration reform” and supports debate on the issue that is “robust” and “productive and respectful” while “avoiding inflammatory rhetoric that unfairly stereotypes groups of people and further divides our nations.”
The group Rhode Islanders for Immigration Law Enforcement said it will host Tancredo on Wednesday at the Pawtucket Veterans of Foreign Wars building where it normally meets. Its founder Terry Gorman told the Associated Press that Tancredo would speak that same day at the gates of the college.
Providence College said that if a similar request is made in a future semester it would encourage and facilitate the hosting of a discussion on illegal immigration in a format that “allows for multiple points of view to be expressed.”
