(L-R) Jewish Labour Movement chair Mike Katz, former Labour MP Ruth Smeeth, Labour MP Margaret Hodge, vice chair Adam Langleben and National Secretary Peter Mason attend a press conference of the Jewish Labour Movement at the offices of law firm Mishcon de Reya in London on October 29, 2020 on the findings of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) report on anti-semitism in the Labour Party. - Britain's main opposition Labour party on Thursday suspended its former leader Jeremy Corbyn, after a government watchdog found his office broke equality law through its "inexcusable" handling of anti-semitism complaints. The shock development came after Corbyn said he refused to accept all the findings of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) report, in defiance of the party's new leadership under Keir Starmer.

St.Gallen's Raiffeisen Square to be renamed A committee has called for the name of Raiffeisen Square to be changed to "Recha-Sternbuch-Platz". The founder of the Raiffeisen movement had been anti-Semitic. A striking feature is the "city lounge" with its surface of red rubber granulate, designed by the artist Pipilotti Rist and the architect Carlos Martinez. Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen had been celebrated by Nazis on the 50th anniversary of his death. Not only bank buildings stand on the "Red Square", but also the St. Gallen Synagogue. The signatories of the letter include former St. Gallen Councillor of States Paul Rechsteiner, historians Hans Fässler and Stefan Keller, and Pipilotti Rist. It is now time to rename the square, they said in St. Gallen on Thursday, 25 May 2023.
