LABOUR members must mobilise against attacks on freedom of speech, a campaigner told the Morning Star yesterday after the party leadership doubled down on its incendiary decision to suspend Jeremy Corbyn.

Naomi Wimborne-Idrissi, a founding member of Jewish Voice for Labour, criticised deputy Labour leader Angela Rayner for her comments in support of the party’s decision to withdraw the whip.

Mr Corbyn was suspended after he responded to Thursday’s publication of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) report into the handling of anti-semitism complaints.
