LABOUR bosses have shelved a report into allegations of anti-semitism because it was written by the boyfriend of a student politician at the centre of a smear scandal, party sources have told the Morning Star.

The development comes after rightwinger Jasmin Beckett beat James Elliott by 0.16 per cent to a seat on Labour’s national executive committee amid claims that some delegates had been prevented from voting.

Ms Beckett was caught attempting to link her left-wing rival to recent allegations of anti-semitism in his university’s Labour club.
