The Labour leadership may take some comfort in the poll’s finding that[almost a third of people also believed claims of antisemitism have been exaggerated to damage Mr Corbyn.

Disgusting given the actual evidence in black and white and the extent of the problem. It's very telling indeed. Thank goodness over 2 thirds take antisemitism seriously enough not to downplay it and turn a blind eye to suit their agenda.

There is an issue clearly, that's not in dispute... are some exploiting the issue?... most definitely.

There is nothing wrong with expressing that view.

Almost two-thirds of the British public believe Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour party has a problem with racism or religious prejudice, a new poll has revealed.

An exclusive survey for The Independent found 61 per cent of people thought Labour had an issue, with Ukip the only other party receiving a comparable score.

Corbyn sickens me more every day. He has been very vocal in the media/giving interviews opposing and criticising May/Tories on the Salisbury poisoning, on the Syrian airstrikes, now Windrush, in all of those he's there sounding his mouth off, but there hasn't been a cheep out of him about the antisemitism in his party.

No media interviews at all, not one word from him during the antisemitism debate in Parliament. He sits there silent while Jewish Labour members recall their horrendous experiences, even leaves in the middle of it before later returning. Was there any reassuring speech from Corbyn? No.
How telling...and what a sly coward he is.

My thoughts too - absolutely astounding. His attempted distraction by criticising the Tories is weak and hypocritical and his silence on antisemitism within Labour is very telling. Probably thinks if he ignores it, it will go away - hardly likely especially as more and more things come to light and he says less and less on the subject.

Apparently he's done 'a lot' to date to address the issues, according to Kizzy. Have you seen any evidence of this?

Nope!
