So is Neil 'curry house brawl' Kinnock also an apologist for Hobsbawm who supported Stalin and excused the murder of 20million plus? Am I alone in being disgusted by the British left?

I am not a sheep, I have my own mind
I have had enough of being told what and how to think
Whilst we are still allowed the remnants of free speech,
I will speak out.
I also reserve the right to discuss less controversial matters should I feel the urge.

No.
Whatever one thinks of Hobsbawn's communism (he is entitled to his own position on the political spectrum), it was his unfailing support for the USSR despite the well-known atrocities *and* its dealings with Hitler early in WWII that put him beyond the pale.
Alex you might want to try and persuade @northbriton45 of this, he seems to be happy to defend Hobsbawm.
