You can listen to this partisan hysteria (remember the JC's editor is Stephen Pollard who is on record as saying that no good can come from the left in any form), or look for more measured voices within the Jewish community such as Geoffrey Alderman:
Or if you want to get an in-depth look at the subject of Antisemitism & Labour there's an excellent book by 5 academics (including 2 who are Jewish: A.Lerman & J.Schlosberg)
If you're sceptical about those who say the issue of antisemitism has been to an extent weaponised against Labour then you might want to ask why the Tories have made @LordJohnMann AS Tsar. This is a judges verdict on his expertise.
And then there is @andrewfeinstein, former ANC politician and comrade of Nelson Mandela, and author of perhaps the best book (certainly that I've read) on the Shadowy world of the Global Arms Trade.
She was employed (her Linkedin profile) at the CPS, so it's hard to see the 2012 Levitt enquiry as independent and avoid the opinion that the CPS cleared Starmer itself.
Incidentally Levitts Linkedin profile states she advised Starmer on "high profile charging decisions"!

Now I don't know whether Levitt with her "high profile charging decisions" brief was there when the Savile case was at the CPS.
If not then her predecessor surely had the same brief? If so then the Savile case may well (should have?) ended up at the highest levels of the CPS? /3
1. Today he was the latest prominent "leader" of the "Jewish community" to indulge in attacks on the Labour Party and Jeremy Corbyn.
The question is simply whether or not Mirvis is someone in a position to be moralising to the nation?
2. First of all we'll consider his politicw. It's clear from this brown nosing of Johnson where Mirvis's political sympathies lie. Johnson apart from being a serial liar, also has quite a lengthy list of racist statements on his record. None of these seem to bother the Rabbi.
3. Some folks visit battlefields, or war museums on their holidays. Mirvis apparently likes to get in the odd war criminal. If Corbyn was pictured grinning with a man with as much blood on his hands as Netenyahu we can well imagine the uproar.
