Corbyn’s henchmen must accept collective failure over anti-semitism

sir – If a company was sanctioned to the same degree as the Labour Party over its illegal racist actions, the Labour Party would be clamouring for the whole board to resign.

When will all the MPS who served in Mr Corbyn’s shadow cabinet and all those on the Labour NEC resign over what the Equality and Human Rights Commission’s report calls a “collective failure of leadership”?

Sir Keir Starmer was in the shadow cabinet, and as a lawyer has a duty to uphold the law. It seems he has not. Will he resign as an MP?

Will Baroness Chakrabarti be stripped of her peerage?

Suspending one person, Jeremy Corbyn, as a scapegoat is risible when the whole Labour Party leadership were either active in the illegality or so supine as to fail to stop it.

Andrew Keith Godstone, Surrey

sir – Jeremy Corbyn has rightly been suspended from the party. Almost immediately Len Mccluskey, the general secretary of the union Unite, jumps up demanding his reinstatement on the grounds that the suspension will split the party.

Will this dinosaur never learn? David Muir Stoke Gifford, Gloucestershire

sir – Having sorted out the figurehead of anti-semitism in the party, Sir Keir must salvage its historically progressive and pioneering role in our society by dealing with the ragbag of Trotskyists, communists, and Momentum extreme-left activists who infiltrated it in order to install Mr Corbyn as their puppet.

Ron Giddens Caterham, Surrey

sir – The Equality and Human Rights Commission’s report makes disturbing reading. Unlawful discrimination is a nasty tag, and even a tag of discrimination is unpleasant.

Let there be civil war in the Labour Party. Mr Corbyn and his acolytes had made the party unelectable. With no serious opposition, the Government was able to let the country drift into a perfect storm. Lack of leadership, ability, planning and policy leaves Britain on a lee shore, with no one on the bridge with any seamanship skills.

Sir Keir needs to forge a proper Labour Party and continue to hold the present Government to account. James Bishop Wincanton, Somerset

sir – Sir Keir Starmer has been quick to act and suspend Jeremy Corbyn from the party. But do not forget that before the last election Sir Keir was actively presenting Mr Corbyn as a potential prime minister.

Charles Penfold Ulverston, Cumbria

sir – I challenge the BBC, in the spirit of impartiality, to produce a dramatisation of anti-semitism within the Labour Party under Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership.
