Today, 7 MP's split from the Labour party to form their own party, The Independence Group. Some of the reasons for this split include rampant racist anti-semitism within their own ranks. Some statistics have come out recently where 700 reports of anti-semitic behaviour have occured within the party in the last 2 years. They tried to suppress these figures but eventually caved in to pressure. One prominent politician suggests these figures are wholly inaccurate, since she alone submitted 200 reports. The leaders of the party have done little to stamp it out, with more sympathy going towards terrorist organisations such as Hamas and the PLO than Israli's themselves.
The Labour party also resisted the acceptance of the international definition of anti-semitism for a long time. It is quite clear why. Accepting it means they cannot continue to bash Israel and their population of Jews without impunity.
What do you think? Is Labour the new Nazi party, but under a different name?
