Derby North MP Chris Williamson said Corbyn's critics will not be appeased by concessions
A SENIOR backbench MP has called for activists to take part in a Twitterstorm tomorrow evening backing Labour’s anti-semitism code.
The campaign supports Labour’s national executive committee (NEC’s) adoption of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition, but with guidance to accompany the IHRA’s examples of anti-semitism, which Labour says is intended to prevent political criticism of Israel being conflated with anti-Jewish prejudice.
The Twitterstorm – backed by groups including Jewish Voice for Labour and the Jewish Socialist Group – calls on supporters of the NEC position to support the #backthecode campaign on Twitter and Facebook from 7pm tomorrow.
As antisemitism grows, the labour movement must recommit to defence of minorities while navigating the complexities of Gaza and global politics, argues NICK WRIGHT
