Jewish socialists condemn smears against Jeremy Corbyn
The pro-Corbyn group Jewish Voice for Labour stage a counter protest to the anti-Corbyn demonstration in Parliament Square tonight

JEWISH socialists condemned two large “unrepresentative” Jewish organisations today for their “flimsy accusations” of anti-semitism against Jeremy Corbyn.

They came to the defence of the Labour leader following revelations that he questioned why a council was painting over a mural by street artist Mear One six years ago. Mear One said it depicted members of the global banking elite Rothschild and Warburg.
