This is the issue I have had the most grievance with as to the Party.

I welcome this today, welcome these payments.
However they shouldn't have been necessary.
I really believe, there's still a long way to go to clear the Party of this, well let's call it what it is, scandal.

The Jewish communities have been grossly offended and hurt by the last few years, of negativity from a proportion of the Party that many Jewish people and families supported and felt safe with.

I've always said it had to be sorted and wasn't being so.
Although not every Jewish individual saw things as the media and opponents presented.

This is shocking.
Labour has to and I'm sure will now address this issue and deep hurt to Jewish communities.
I'm also sure, they will implement in full any and all recommendations of this investigation of the Party too.
Under Keir Starmer.
Although I do hold deep sadness, those on the front bench did NOT force much earlier action against this unacceptable prejudice and/ or persecution of any Jewish members, supporters or communities.

I remain resolved too, that if this investigation finds that Labour is near completely riddled all through with antisemitism, then my membership will be ended.

That will be sad obviously as I believe a far more compassionately as to social policies party is vital at this time for ALL communities.

I do believe Starmer is determined to eradicate any antisemitism.
These so called whistleblowers, not the term I'd use for those who'd witnessed any wrongdoing.
I'm glad they have apologies and more.
It's a disgrace it's had to reach this point really.
