Charity regulator closes investigation into Campaign Against Anti-Semitism after four years of complaints

JEWISH campaigners renewed calls today for the Campaign Against Anti-Semitism (CAA) to lose its charity registration after the Charity Commission closed an investigation into the group. 

Jewish Voice for Labour (JVL) began demanding a probe more than four years ago, accusing the group of political partisanship. 

The CAA, which raised anti-semitism allegations against Labour when it was led by Jeremy Corbyn, has branded JVL a “sham” Jewish organisation. 

A string of defamatory remarks directed at the left-wing group include a claim that its members are anti-semitism deniers and “supportive of extreme elements.”

The commission said it had opened a regulatory compliance case last year. 

But earlier this month, the regulator claimed that JVL had failed to make “a clear case that it is a person that is or may be affected by the registration of CAA.”
