Last Friday, JLM, Labour’s Jewish affiliate since 1920, asked every candidate for the NEC their views on the IHRA definition of antisemitism. We do not endorse any slate and our measures against Pete Willsman were due to the extraordinary nature of his attack on British Jewry. Allowing Jews to define their own prejudice is a matter of principle. We advocate a vote for any candidate who takes this principled anti-racist stand and supports Labour immediately adopting the full and unamended IHRA definition of antisemitism in full, including all the examples.
Please see below for the candidates’ responses, or lack of (in alphabetical order)…
Update: Stephen Stanners got in contact after the publication of our twitter thread, his response is below.
That's all 25 candidates. We advocate a vote for any candidate who supports adopting the full and unamended IHRA definition of antisemitism in full, including all the examples.
