Will Jeremy Corbyn’s return to the Labor Party hurt Keir Starmer’s leadership? – BBC Newsnight

As former Labor leader Jeremy Corbyn rejoins the party, will this reopen divisions over anti-Semitism? Please subscribe HERE

Former Labor leader Jeremy Corbyn has rejoined as a member after being suspended last month. In response to a damning report by the Equality and Human Rights Commission, he was punished after being told that the size of anti-Semitism in the party was “excessive”. Mr Corbyn had earlier issued a statement saying he deplored the “pain” caused, but current leader Sir Keir Starmer said Corbyn’s initial reaction was “wrong”. Should Jeremy Corbyn reset the whip? How will this affect the Jewish community’s relations? And will this spark deep divisions in the party? Nicknight Watt, Political Editor of Newsnight, will be joined by Kirsty Wark Dame, a former Labor MP for Louise Ellman, and Jenny Manson, president of the Jewish Voice for Labor. #Newsnight #BBCNews Newsnight is the BBC’s premier news and current affairs television program – with strong analysis, discussion, exclusivity and dialogue. https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsnight
