The Shadow Business, Innovation and Skills Secretary has told Jewish organisations that Labour “condemns antisemitism in any form”.
In a meeting with the Board of Deputies and the Community Security Trust today, Angela Eagle spoke of her party’s “commitment to take whatever action is necessary to deal with such intolerable behaviour - it has no place in our party, or in our country”.
The session included representatives of the Union of Jewish Students and University Jewish Chaplaincy.
Ms Eagle said it had been good to hear directly about “concerns regarding incidents of antisemitism” at universities.
