Labour’s Jewish vote

-

SIR – I believe that the Labour Party will not adopt the internatio­nal definition of anti-semitism because the leadership believe the Jewish vote is not significan­t, and that power will be achieved if they continue the line they have up to this point.

I am ashamed of these people who are responsibl­e for stoking the fire of anti-semitism instead of stamping it out.

The internatio­nal definition of anti-semitism is adopted by all decent government­s and is well recognised. Yet the Labour Party led by Jeremy Corbyn refuses to adopt it.

Decent, hardworkin­g Labour MPS across the party had only the night before voted in favour of Labour adopting the internatio­nal definition. Yet the leadership continues to promote a policy of singling out the Jewish people of this country as a special case.

I dread to think how they would treat the Jewish population if they got into power. Graham Marks
