Ex-Labor leader Jeremy Corbyn is suspended from his party after accusations of anti-Semitism.
He defends himself on social media and receives support.
There has been criticism of ex-Labor leader Jeremy Corbyn in the past.
In his day there should have been anti-Semitic tendencies in the British party.
According to a report, the 71-year-old is expelled from the party.
London -
Labor
party leader Keir Starmer described this October 29, 2020
as a "day of shame"
. A few moments before, his predecessor
Jeremy Corbyn was
expelled from the British
party
.
The reason:
Corbyn
is said to have anti-Semitic tendencies.
An investigative report by the independent British Commission on Equality and Human Rights (EHRC) had previously found that the
party
and its ex-boss had allowed discrimination against
Jews
.
A party spokesman said the expulsion was a response to the report.
The decision was made in the face of trivializing statements by
Corbyn
.
He immediately defended himself in a statement on Facebook: “As the head of the
Labor Party,
I have always been determined
to fight
all forms of
racism
.
I have campaigned for people of the Jewish faith my entire life and will continue to do so. "
After incidents of anti-Semitism: Labor party excludes ex-boss Jeremy Corbyn
For many years, critics have accused the British
Social Democrats of
anti-Semitic tendencies - including in posts on social media.
The EHRC report reinforces this suspicion.
There have been "inexcusable mistakes" due to a lack of
willingness to fight anti-Semitism, said the chair of the independent commission, Caroline Waters.
In the past,
Corbyn
had refused
to apologize
to
Jews
for anti-Semitic tendencies in his party.
Critics accused him of unilateral support for the Palestinians in the Middle East conflict.
Even before his time as
Labor leader
, he referred to the British media as "friends" of Hamas, which ruled the Gaza Strip and is classified by the EU as a terrorist organization, among other things.
