The repercussions of today’s events are likely to be felt in the Labour party for a long time to come - here’s a rundown of events as they happened. EHRC report finds Labour responsible for unlawful acts of discrimination and harassment. An investigation into the Labour party by the equalities watchdog found it was responsible for unlawful acts of harassment and discrimination, and identified what it described as “serious failings in the Labour party leadership in addressing antisemitism and an inadequate process for handling antisemitism complaints”. Jeremy Corbyn said he did not accept all of the EHRC’s findings and that the scale of the antisemitism problem in Labour was “dramatically overstated” for political reasons. He also said he was “determined to eliminate all forms of racism and root out the cancer of anti-Semitism” and admitted “Jewish members of our party and the wider community were right to expect us to deal with it, and I regret that it took longer to deliver that change than it should.” Labour given until 10 December to draft an action plan. The party was given until 10 December to draft an action plan to implement the report’s recommendations, which is legally enforceable by the courts if not fulfilled. Keir Starmer said it was a ‘day of shame’ for the Labour party. “The EHRC’s reports are stark and leave no room for equivocation,” Keir Starmer said in his first reaction to the release. Labour suspended Jeremy Corbyn. A Labour party spokesman said: “In light of his comments made today and his failure to retract them subsequently, the Labour Party has suspended Jeremy Corbyn pending investigation.” Corbyn said he would contest ‘political intervention’ to suspend him. “I’ve made absolutely clear that those who deny there has been an antisemitism problem in the Labour party are wrong,” he said in a statement. Momentum described Corbyn’s suspension as ‘massive attack on the left’. Momentum, which was set set up in 2015 to support the leftwing of the Labour party under the leadership of Corbyn, said the suspension should be immediately lifted in the interests of party unity. Keir Starmer said he ‘fully supports’ the move to suspend Jeremy Corbyn. “I made it clear that we would not support antisemitism or the denial of antisemitism through the suggestion that it is exaggerated or factional and that is why I was disappointed by Jeremy Corbyn’s response and that is why appropriate action has been taken, which I fully support,” he said. Jeremy Corbyn urged Labour supporters to ‘stay in the party’ and fight. In an interview following the removal of the party whip Corbyn called for calm and for members to “make the case” for leftwing values internally. Unite boss Len McCluskey said Corbyn suspension will ‘create chaos’ in Labour party. Corbyn ally McCluskey said the division created by today’s events would leave Labour “doomed to defeat”. Cabinet office minister, Michael Gove, wrote a scathing letter to Keir Starmer, challenging him over his “failure to speak out” on antisemitism during his time in the shadow cabinet, and demanding answers on Corbyn’s future in the Labour party.
