Where to begin with today's revelations of Labour Party mendacity, incompetence and political corruption in their handling of antisemitism complaints? Let's start with the sheer dishonesty /1

Listen to the recording of Corbyn and his aide. Read the denials of interference. Then read the emails showing the exact opposite. The cynicism is breathtaking /2

The system is overwhelmed. Complaints languish for months or years or are never dealt with at all. Last year Labour told Jewish community leaders they would fix the system. "Leave it with us", they said. One year on nothing has changed /3

Antisemites and conspiracy cranks have joined Labour, poisoned its internal discourse about Jews, Zionism and Israel and the party lets them stay /4

There's the wholly damaging and toxic role of Jewish Voice for Labour, in this case helping a member who thinks "Jewish Israelis" were behind 9/11. As long as they have the ear of the leadership this problem will only get worse /5

Why are so many conspiracy theorists attracted to Jeremy Corbyn's Labour Party anyway? It's a real mystery /6

Finally, look at these emails from two of Corbyn's closest aides: "This email originates external to The Labour Party network." That's one hell of a metaphor for everything that has led us to this point. Where is the old Labour Party? /End
