JEWISH Labour members have launched action against the party leadership, accusing it of unfairly targeting them over their anti-zionist beliefs.
Jewish Voice for Labour (JVL), a left-wing, anti-racist network for Jewish members, renewed calls for the party to rethink its “unfair” disciplinary procedures.
In a submission to the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC), JVL accused Labour of waging a factional campaign against left-wing Jews.
