Corbyn's suspension is a disservice to anti-semitism report

As a UNISON member it is not usual for me to compliment my comrades in Unite very often. But Len McLuskey hit the nail on the head when he said: "This was a day for our party to move forward as one to defeat the evil of anti-semitism. However, the decision to suspend Jeremy Corbyn has threatened that opportunity.”

I wish my own union had made such a principled statement. Maybe it will follow.

It is also worth pointing out at the beginning that amidst many of the criticisms in the EHRC report, there is also a recognition that the problem had been recognised and attempts were being made under Corbyn’s leadership to improve disciplinary processes. See at least pages 36, 41, 71, 73 and 82. https://www.equalityhumanrights.com/en/publication-download/investigation-antisemitism-labour-party
