Filmmaker Ken Loach has proposed a Labour motion attacking the BBC Panorama episode on Labour antisemitism, calling it a "hatchet job".
The motion was proposed and passed at a meeting of the Bath Labour Party on Monday after last week's broadcast about whistleblowers' attacking the influence Jeremy Corbyn's allies have assumed over complaints of antisemitism against Labour members.
The programme has become epicentre of a huge row within the party, after the leadership attacked the whistleblowers as "disaffected", triggering legal threats and one union offering its Labour staff members legal advice.
The Bath motion said: “This was a dishonest hatchet job with potentially undemocratic consequences. It disgraced the name of Panorama and exposed the bias endemic within the BBC.”
