Teddy Ryan is a Labour Party official employed by the East of England Labour Party as the Deputy Regional Director who was cited on page 53 of Labour's internal report on antisemitism that was leaked in April 2020:
"On 9 May 2017, GLU’s Head of Disputes Sam Matthews and Teddy Ryan, Regional Organiser, used offensive language about a Labour MP:
- "Sam Matthews 10:39: Fuck 'em. Someone's got to stand up to these progressive alliance wankers.
- "Teddy Ryan 10:40: tell me about it...Clive Lewis is the biggest cunt out of the lot.
- "Sam Matthews 10:40: it's like outlook-whack-a-mole, yes. Yes he is."[1]
Copeland by-election
Teddy Ryan was drafted to assist the 2017 Copeland by-election campaign and ensure that the result reflected badly upon Jeremy Corbyn.[2]When Tory Trudy Harrison was elected with 13,748 votes (44.3%) and Labour's Gill Troughton came second with 11,601 (37.4%), the mainstream media predictably put the blame entirely on Jeremy Corbyn even though had Labour maintained the 42.3% of the vote that was enough for Jamie Reed to win in 2015, it would still have been beaten by the Tories in the 2017 by-election. The real story in Copeland is the collapse in the UKIP vote which fell from 15.5% in 2015 to just 6.5% (2,025 votes) in 2017. This 9% fall in the UKIP vote share is almost exactly matched by the Tories 8.5% increase. Those statistics show that Ukippers are abandoning their party in droves in order to throw their support behind the Tories now that Theresa May is pushing a rabidly right-wing authoritarian more-UKIP-than-UKIP political agenda.[3]
Social media
His political friends on Facebook are overwhelmingly Blairite:
- Lukey Stanger; and,
Antisemitism
On Twitter Teddy Ryan retweeted the Jewish Labour Movement's "Confronting Antisemitism & Engaging Jewish Voters" campaign to undermine the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn.[4]
