Corbyn was expelled from the party for his comments after the Human Rights Commission published a report critical of anti-Semitism during his tenure.
The long-awaited report from the UK Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) found that while Corbyn was in charge of the Labor Party, his party had violated the Equality Act by failing to prevent harassment and discrimination against Jews.
The BBC reports that the Labor Party has violated the law in three cases: * Political interference in accusations of anti-Semitism. * Those who worry about such allegations have not received adequate training and * harassment has occurred.
The EHRC report alleges that Corbyn’s leadership has not done enough to curb anti-Semitism.
Corbyn immediately rejected the report as unacceptable and said he had tried to eradicate the cancer of anti-Semitism.
Corbyn further claims that he condemned anti-Semitism. However, the level of anti-Semitism in the Labor Party during his leadership was dramatically increased by the opposition for political gain.
Corbyn also claimed that reform efforts had been hampered by bureaucratic complications in the party.
His comments have drawn strong criticism within the party. Corbyn has been suspended by current Labor leader Starmer. “This is an embarrassment to the Labor Party,” Starmer said in a comment on the Commission on Human Rights report. Starmer became a Labor leader last April.
The Labor Party later said in a statement that it had “suspended” Corbyn for his comments today and for being unable to withdraw them.
Meanwhile, Corbyn has vowed to crack down on the move, calling it politically motivated.
