Labour faces legal action from one of its own members over claims party staff ‘sought the victory of rival parties’

LABOUR has suspended some of its members following the leaking of an internal report into allegations of anti-Semitism in the party, the High Court heard today.

The 860-page report, which found "no evidence" of anti-Semitism being handled differently from other complaints and that "factional opposition" towards Jeremy Corbyn had hindered efforts to tackle the crisis, was leaked in April.

Labour is now facing legal action from one of its members over claims that party staff "sought the victory of rival parties" in key constituencies in the 2017 general election.
