Chief Rabbi find fault with Labour anti-Semitism record

The chief rabbi has strongly criticized labour, claiming the party is not doing enough to root out anti-jewish racism  and asked people to vote with their conscience in the general election.

Labour’s claim it had investigated all cases of anti-semitism in its ranks was a mendacious fiction.

Jeremy Corbyn says labour is tackling anti-semitism by expelling members.

He adds that it was not in place to tell any person how they should vote but he urged the public to vote with their conscience.

The chief Rabbi – who has been a persistent critic of labour’s response to anti-semitism allegations – claims the response of labour’s leadership to threats against parliamentarians, members and staff has been utterly inadequate and says it can no longer claim to be the party of equality and anti-racism.
