LABOUR under the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn is a “crucial ally in the fight against anti-semitism,” a letter by 201 Jewish members and supporters of the party says.
The letter that was published in the Guardian yesterday rebuffs claims by MPs that have defected from Labour to the Independent Group that the party led by Mr Corbyn is “institutionally racist.”
The signatories include film director Mike Leigh, writer and broadcaster Michael Rosen, author Gillian Slovo and peace activist Walter Wolfgang, 93, who fled Nazi Germany as a child.
