A dignified protest

Praise should be given to those that organised the dignified and heavily attended demonstration at Parliament Square London.

Jeremy Corbyn’s latest letter of apology to The Board of Deputies of British Jews is a smokescreen for his own blatant erring on the subject and total lack of action in kicking out the perpetrators within the party.

Labour has now recognised it has pockets of antisemitism — unfortunately they appear to be very deep — to paraphrase their election slogan: “We have many not the few”.

Immediate action is required to dismiss and clear out from the party all those guilty of antisemitism before any semblance of confidence can be restored that might start to satisfy British as well as Jewry worldwide.
