Formal complaints against Jeremy Corbyn and more than a dozen other Labour MPs have been submitted to the party in response to the Equality and Human Rights Commission’s report on antisemitism.

The Campaign Against Antisemitism said Keir Starmer must implement reforms and hold its members to account. “To that end, we have submitted complaints against Jeremy Corbyn, Diane Abbott and 15 other sitting MPs, and have given Labour six months to conduct transparent investigations and finally deliver justice for the Jewish community,” it said.

Not suspended but it does appear the leadership of the SNP spent quite a lot of effort in trying to get him convicted as a rapist which I am not sure is any less dramatic.

I wonder how Shamless Chakrabarti now feels, her whitewash has been shown to be what it was, will they go after them in the HoL as well?

the lowest hanging fruit in ukpol is going after Diane she's probably has more nerve, gut, and integrity than the vast majority of the opposition, but then again that's not an awfully high ceiling.

Jeremy Corbyn, Seumas Milne and Karie Murphy just held a "council of war" on how to respond

They were joined on Zoom by John McDonnell, reps of Unite, Momentum, CLPD + Campaign Group

One source says Starmer "in big trouble" and the belief is he is on "dodgy legal ground"

Don’t worry, the Corbyn brains trust are on the case:

I am sure former DPP, Kei Starmer, will be no match for their combined legal knowledge.

Indeed, but to think that all the hard left of the Party support Corbyn is complete bollocks.
Large swathes of the left hate the metropolitan trendy lefty shit he spouted.
