Keith A of Hertford BS: UK Labour Party and IHRA def. (105* d) RE: BS: UK Labour Party and IHRA def. 23 Jul 18

From BBC (25 mins)
"She told BBC Radio 4's Today she stood by her criticism of the Labour leader, saying: "What has happened over the last months - from failure to respond to anti-Semitism against Labour Party members, from failure to respond to the massive demonstration, unique demonstration by the Jewish community, culminating in the failure to adopt in full the universally used definition of anti-Semitism is just a bridge too far."
She insisted she would not leave the party, saying: "I am going to fight within the Labour Party - and it is terrible that in 2018 I have to do that." "

"Jewish MPs Ruth Smeeth and Louise Ellman will submit an emergency motion at Monday's Labour meeting calling for the party to amend its guidelines to include the IHRA definition.
Critics of the party's new guidelines included the chief rabbi, Ephraim Mirvis, who said Labour would be "on the wrong side" of the fight against racism unless it toughened up its stance."
