Corbyn avoids reporter's question on Labour antisemitism row

2018-08-01 15

Jeremy Corbyn MP refused to answer a reporter's question on the Labour Party antisemitism row as he left his home on Wednesday morning. The Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) has referred the party to the Equality and Human Rights Commission and made a complaint to Labour about comments by Mr Corbyn and his hosting of a Holocaust Memorial Day event in 2010 at which speakers reportedly compared the actions of Israel in Gaza to the Nazis. The Labour leader has apologised for "concerns and anxiety" caused by his hosting of the event. Report by Jonesia.
