The Labour Files â€“ The Crisis I Al Jazeera Investigations

Published on Sep 28, 2022
Al Jazeeraâ€™s Investigative Unit uncovers the true story behind the â€œcrisis of anti-Semitismâ€ that engulfed the British Labour Party under Jeremy Corbyn. It made him appear unfit to govern and led to a crushing electoral defeat.

An analysis of internal party documents, social media data and covert recordings reveals how senior Labour officials used the partyâ€™s procedures to undermine support for Jeremy Corbyn and to silence debate about Israelâ€™s treatment of Palestinians.
The files also show how pro-Israel groups ask the party to distance itself from the Boycott Divest and Sanctions campaign, a protest movement that seeks to end Israelâ€™s occupation of Palestinian lands, and how - in response - the Jewish Board of Deputies was assured that Labour would â€œnever accept attempts to exceptionalise and deligitimise Israel.â€
