Dans sa clarification, M. Javid a insisté sur le fait que son commentaire initial faisait référence à l'utilisateur de Twitter« achetant la position de Corbyn sur l'antisémitisme ».
Les troubles du Labour vont se creuser la semaine prochaine.
Un total de 68 rabbins de tous les courants religieux du pays ont exhorté le parti à adopter la définition complète et non modifiée de l'antisémitisme de l'IHRA
Il est utilisé par les gouvernements britannique et écossais, l'Assemblée galloise, par des organismes publics, notamment le Crown Prosecution Service et le College of Policing, ainsi que par un grand nombre d'autorités locales
. être antisémite "pour accuser les citoyens juifs d'être plus fidèles à Israël, ou aux prétendues priorités des Juifs dans le monde entier, qu'aux intérêts de leurs propres nations".
De même, la définition de l'IHRA dit qu'il est antisémite de comparer Israël à l'Allemagne nazie, mais le code du Labour dit que c'est seulement le cas s'il y a des "preuves d'intention antisémite"
. est antisémite de prétendre que l'idée de base d'un Etat pour le peuple juif est une "entreprise raciste".
M. Corbyn a été accusé de ne pas expliquer pourquoi le Labour n'utilisera pas la définition de l'IHRA, suite à la décision du Comité exécutif national
Le NEC accepta de l'ouvrir à de nouvelles consultations – mais, pendant ce temps, des mesures disciplinaires ont été prises contre Margaret Hodge pour une confrontation publique fâchée dans laquelle le député vétéran a qualifié Jeremy Corbyn d'antisémite
. MP, un juif laïque, a déclaré qu'elle le mettait au courant de sa «colère et de son indignation» à propos de l'adoption par son parti de son code de conduite.
