Thread Name: BS: Uk Labour Party discussion II
Subject: RE: BS: Uk Labour Party discussion II
Huff Post article yesterday by Yvette Cooper , Labour MP for Normanton, Castleford and Pontefract, and chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee
Headline,
"Saying Anti-Semitism Has No Place In Labour Is Not Enough - We Have To Stand Up And Make It True"

Opening para.,
"Last night's decision by Labour's NCC disciplinary panel was utterly wrong. It isn't enough for the Labour Party to say the words "zero tolerance of anti-Semitism" we have to put them into practice. Yesterday the party's institutions failed to do so. For a party with such a long, proud history of fighting against racism, for equality and for what is right - this is a dark moment. But it is a moment we must not let just pass."
