Dear Abby Young divorcee is reluctant to talk about her marriage

DEAR ABBY: When I was 18, I married someone who, at the time, I loved very much. It happened sort of spur of the moment. Not even six months into the marriage, he cheated on me.

I am now 20, divorced and finally feel ready to move on. But how do I go about dating at my age being a divorcee? I dont know how to talk about it. I have friends who dont even know I was married. How should I handle it?

— DIVORCEE IN ILLINOIS

DEAR DIVORCEE: Unless you are planning to meet men on a dating site that requires you to disclose that information as part of your profile, I see no reason why you have to mention it. If you are asked, however, be honest about your status. All you need to say is that you married, very briefly, at the age of 18, and it didnt work out because you were both too young. Its the truth, and there is no shame in it.

DEAR ABBY: I am a 39 year old female, and I want to know more about my ancestors so I can tell stories about them to my kids. The thing is, my boyfriend doesnt like the idea, and anytime I say or do something, he criticizes me

about it. Hes also very controlling and manipulative. He feels its his way or the highway. Thats why I want out — for the sake of my life and the kids. I have no money and nowhere to go. What should I do?

— CRYING IN WESTERN WASHINGTON

DEAR CRYING: I agree the situation you describe isnt healthy for you or the children. If you have no family to help, you will have to work toward independence in small steps. Contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline or 800 799 7233 for suggestions on how to disengage from your abuser oops! I meant boyfriend without any of you being harmed. Then find a job so you wont be penniless, and start saving your money.

DEAR ABBY: I feel petty complaining about this, but my wife has a habit I cant stand. We keep a stick of butter on a butter dish and replace it when its used up. However, when my wife uses it, instead of cutting off thin slices, she scrapes her knife across the entire top of the butter cube, gradually whittling it down. Not only do I find it unsightly, but I also think its unsanitary.

Needless to say, when Ive mentioned it to her, she has strongly disagreed. Im reluctant to bring it up anymore as it is settled, in her mind. I have tried using a different stick of butter, which I keep in the refrigerator and unwrap every time I want to use it, but she criticizes me for it, saying we shouldnt have two sticks in use at the same time.

I suppose theres an upside — Im using less butter, which my doctor approves of. What do you think about this habit of hers?

— BUTTER WARS IN CALIFORNIA

DEAR BUTTER WARS: It seems there is a power struggle going on between your wife and you. Because you have expressed to her more than once that you find what shes doing unappetizing, she should respect your wishes.

However, if she continues, she should look the other way when you use your own butter stick.

Jeremy Corbyn is an ally to the most rancid anti Semites in Britain, writes STEPHEN POLLARD� Daily - Duration: 5:24.

Jeremy Corbyn is an ally to the most rancid anti Semites in Britain, writes STEPHEN POLLARD  Daily

It took me a long time before I felt it appropriate to describe as an anti Semite. I would tell people that none of us knows what goes on in another persons heart and all we can do is judge someone on their actions.

But that is precisely the reason that I now believe there is no other possible conclusion to draw: Mr Corbyns actions – and his inaction over the poison of anti Semitism within Labours membership – show that he has to be labelled an anti Semite.

The evidence presented in Tom Bowers investigation shows that the view of Jews as a race apart was with Mr Corbyn from the very start of his career, making up stories of unscrupulous, leeching Jewish employers stealing money from their workers.

As this devastating biography shows, supporting terrorists who want to murder Jews and allying with the most rancid anti Semites in Britain has been a lifelong obsession for Mr Corbyn. And now, as Labour leader, he has surrounded himself with people who have a similar view of Jews.

Dame Margaret Hodge pictured above called Mr Corbyn an anti Semite to his face last summer

Famously, Labour grandee Dame Margaret Hodge called Mr Corbyn an anti Semite to his face last summer after he refused to implement the internationally recognised definition of anti Semitism, over which he eventually backed down.

As she put it to him: It is not what you say but what you do, and by your actions you have shown you are an anti Semitic racist.

Mr Corbyn presides over a party that deliberately refuses to act seriously to remove anti Semites.

Last Monday, Jennie Formby, Labours general secretary, published figures showing that since April 2018, 673 allegations had been investigated. And even though the party found that 146 members actions merited a warning, just 12 were expelled.

Mr Corbyn has repeatedly promised zero tolerance of anti Semitism, but even on the partys own figures, that is clearly a lie. The numbers show that the party is happy to let those whose behaviour has been anti Semitic remain as members. And a number of Labour MPs say that those figures are themselves a lie, and do not represent the full scale of the problem.

Take the chairman of Liverpool Wavertree Labour Party, Alex Scott Samuel. The MP for the constituency is Luciana Berger, who has been the subject of death threats and abuse because she is Jewish. People have been sent to prison for such actions, so you would think that the chairman of her party would be a bulwark of support for a young Jewish woman MP who is widely admired. But Dr Scott Samuel spends his time trying to drive her out.

A fortnight ago he co sponsored a vote of no confidence in her. And when he is not doing that, he is spouting conspiracy theories about the Rothschilds – a classic anti Semitic theme – on internet shows hosted by a blatant and unambiguous anti Semite, Ritchie Allen.

You have to rub your eyes in disbelief when you remember that Dr Scott Samuel is chairman of a local Labour Party, rather than the BNP. This behaviour and these views have frightening consequences far beyond the cesspit of Corbyns Labour.

Earlier this month, the Community Security Trust CST – the body which collates anti Semitism statistics with the police – published its figures for 2018. They showed a 16 per cent increase in the number of anti Semitic incidents on the previous year, to a record 1,652.

That figure alone should be shocking. There are still people alive who survived the Holocaust, which showed where such bigotry can lead.

But the numbers are the least shocking part of the picture.

What is truly spine chilling is the analysis published alongside the CSTs figures.

According to its chief executive, David Delew, the rise in UK anti Semitism to record levels is down to the deliberate excluding of Jews from anti racist norms and anti Semitic politics.

You do not need to be an expert in euphemisms to understand to what – and to whom – that phrase is referring.

It means Jeremy Corbyn.

As editor of the Jewish Chronicle, I spend far too much time dealing with anti Semitism. But inured as I am to most of it, even I sometimes have to take a breath, draw back and contemplate how astonishing it is that the leader of one of our two main parties is an anti Semite, and that a party which defines itself as progressive and anti racist is now so institutionally anti Semitic that, as the CST shows, it is fuelling the oldest hatred.

Look at social media or turn up at many local Labour meetings and you will see the foul truth about Corbyns Labour.

As the no confidence motion against Luciana Berger shows, when you speak out against the hatred of Jews, you are then targeted by the party.

As a Jew, I obviously have particular reason to be frightened by what this means if Labour takes power under its current leadership. But this isnt just about Jews – it is an indication of the true malignancy that underpins Corbyns Labour, of which we should all be frightened.
