UK Labour Party

Sir Keir Starmer said at a party conference that boycotts of Israel ‘drive people apart’ and said his party was committed to continuing to root out antisemitism.

The motion to define Israel as an apartheid state comes as the party tried to recover from the antisemitism scandal the party faced under the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn.

Just as in Shakespeare’s play The Taming of the Shrew, Tenenbom suggests that Jews have been “tamed” by their tormentors until shame and fear have bent their knees into submission.

The rise in antisemitism in the party was a betrayal of the loyalty Jewish community members had given to it over the years.  Why this loyalty exists at all is a much-debated question.

Loach is a close friend and major supporter Jeremy Corbyn, the former Labour leader who was excoriated for allowing what critics deemed a major antisemitism streak to fester.

Eight members of the British Labour Party claim they had been unfairly suspended or expelled following antisemitic remarks.

Spokespeople for Labour and the Conservatives said the suspensions were part of the policy of zero tolerance toward antisemitic rhetoric in their ranks.

Tuvia Tenenbom has made his name with a series of best-selling books in which he relates his encounters with an impressively large number of people in several countries.

The anonymous account suspended by Twitter, GnasherJew, was a leading source of allegations of Antisemitism against the UK Labour Party and its then-leader Jeremy Corbyn during the 2019 election.

“There is therefore no certainty that the information sought will lead to the identification of the wrongdoer or wrongdoers.”
