The Art of Bore
I think as the equalities commission are the leading body in this under UK law I'd be inclined to say they should be taken pretty seriously.... Let's not forget they have taken legal action against a political party before (the BNP)So why did Shami Chakravarti (no Corbynite), Jan Royall, and David Feldman report " "no evidence" of systemic antisemitism in Labour"?
Do you believe the commission would say this without ecidence?
Chakravati was appointed by Corbyn to do the investigation and subsequently appointed as shadow ag... Nominated for a peerage by Corbyn (not without controvicy https://amp.theguardian.com/politic...iticises-shami-chakrabarti-peerage-nomination )
And even her report stated
So not overrun but clear evidence of ignorant attitudes
This is from a Feldman article

.
Others acknowledge the problem is more widespread but then trot out evasive phrases about "unconscious anti-Semitism," or vaguely suggest we educate people to recognise anti-Semitic tropes.
The problems go deeper than Labour leaders have been willing to admit.
Hardly ringing endorsements of a party without issues...
And we have the equalities commission... Who lest we forget
The Equality and Human Rights Commission(EHRC) is a non-departmental public body in England and Wales, established by the Equality Act 2006 with effect from 1 October 2007. The Commission has responsibility for the promotion and enforcement of equality and non-discrimination laws in England, Scotland and Wales.
Have actually undertaken a formal enquiry using public funds because they believe in the balance of probability the law has been broken
So yah... I think try answering my point without deflecting...
.
So again why is there only a formal investigation into labour?
Do you believe the equalities commission would do this without evidence?
Do you believe the equalities commission wouldn't undertake similar investigation into other parties if the same evidence bar was reached ?
If no then the investigation is clearly warranted
If yes then on what do you base that?
