Because despite all their efforts, the right wing media are looking at being proved massively wrong on Thursday as Corbyn's popularity energises the Labour party for the first time in a generation, so this issue has been shoved in everyone's faces as a final last desperate attempt at smearing a party which has less racism all round than the Tories.
That's not true at all though - Labour are going to have a disaster in Thursday's polls. They're going to lose huge numbers of seats in England and Wales and they're even at risk of falling to 3rd in Scotland behind the Tories - that's unprecedented. And all after the Corbynites said that he would win Scotland back for Labour!

The only success for Labour is going to be Sadiq Khan's likely victory in London which will be a nice symbolic win to calm some of the negative headlines but make no mistake that Thursday is not going to be a good night for the Labour party.
