Labour Special: Stamping Out Antisemitism

Update: 2020-11-06

Description

Labour's long-running antisemitism saga came to a head last month, when a report by the Equalities and Human Rights Council found the party responsible for "unlawful acts of harassment and discrimination".

Ruth Smeeth, former Labour MP and now CEO of Index on Censorship, tells Bloomberg Westminster's Roger Hearing and Sebastian Salek about her experience of antisemitism in the party. Naomi Wimborne-Idrissi, founding member of Jewish Voice for Labour, explains why the report was politically motivated.

Plus, how can the party move on from here? Labour historian David Kogan joins to discuss.
