Labour party is at war with itself after Rebecca Long-Bailey sacking by Leader Sir Keir Starmer

Labour's at war with itself again following the sacking of Rebecca Long-Bailey. Leader Sir Keir Starmer's had a tense confrontation with left-wingers including Jeremy Corbyn and Diane Abbott, who are calling for the former shadow education secretary to be reinstated. A petition supporting Ms Long-Bailey's also passed its 10,000 signature target. Evening Standard columnist Ayesha Hazarika tells us why Sir Keir is standing firm in his decision.

True or not, (it is true, 100s of police department heads have traveled to Israel for crowd control training) can someone please explain how the statement is critical of the Jewish faith?

The Labour party was always a working class party. unfortunately many people now regard Labour as a ethnic party and hence their disastrous election campaign.

She just stated a fact, how can the truth be anti Semitic or a conspiracy theory? If you want to know who rules you, find out who you can't criticize- Voltaire. By the way that is a quote, a report of what someone said, it is not a conspiracy theory nor is it anti Semitic.

Our monolithic media conglomeration is over reaching yet again. Where is the nuance, the contextualisation, the counter arguement. We're circling the plug hole of fascism in an ever decreasing orbit.

Two wings of the anti-English party have gone to war. What's the best that we could hope for?

You can criticise Trump, Britain, but not Israel.

No fan of Labour here, but those who think Labour can ever win back control by being extreme left or 'progressive' and play identity politics are deluded. Starmer has taken an action here that will win the respect of centrists and even as a right winger, myself. I'm more likely to vote for Starmer now than I was before this week. This is what labour needs to do if they ever want power ever again.

It is on the Amnesty report, why sack someone for the truth?

back to the days of tory rule a barrister who has not a clue . the next election they will lose . religion and politics do not mix .

As a Jew I am incredibly offended by Long-Bailey's disgusting antisemitic promotion of conspiracy theories. (Isn't it wonderful that the party who weaponised offence, is now vulnerable to their own weapon - delicious.)

1st police depts are decentralized. They dont have same training nor do they have same accountability procedure.
2nd Amnesty report only cited a confrence which may or may not have been attended by MN police
3rd Amnesty Intl later retracted the statements in the report because that too was *exxagarated nonsense*

[stevebailey]

I'm surprised that an assertion about Israel, even a blatantly incorrect one, can be framed as 'anti-Semitic'.

[jimmyjemal]

Antisemitism is wrong at any level is, but criticising Israel's policy and treatment of the Palestinians is not antisemitism.

I'm anti automatic manual cars are much more fun to drive. Anybody watched Top Keir lately?

[SnowofLight]

Barely one minute in, and what an awful and dishonest misrepresentation of the facts. I will have to double check everything I hear from the Evening Standard from now on.

[muzwot]

That's right 'strong Labour man' Starmer, be a good little pawn to those pulling your strings and- 'Don't say so much as a single word about 12 million Muslims who've been massacred around the world in the last decade'.

[markkelly]

Once it would have you promoted? Obvious tosh.

RLB always was about taking the fight to the Jews.

Instead of local politics.

The Liebour party: For the Muslim, not the Jew!

This broadcast is a disgrace for its inaccuracies in reporting facts
