    • Abstract:
      The only party previously investigated by the EHRC was the British National Party (BNP), although Margaret Hodge, a Labour MP, has said she faced "much much" more anti-Semitism in the Labour Party than when she was campaigning against the BNP in her Barking constituency. If most Labour MPs believe that Corbyn is unfit to be leader of the Labour Party, he is, presumably, also unfit to be the leader of the country. But Labour MPs, and especially members of the shadow cabinet - collectively responsible for Labour's stance - seem to have had a decency bypass. So, following the inevitable thumping victory for Boris Johnson on 12 December, followed by Brexit, the first thing I want is for Jeremy Corbyn to resign as leader of the Labour Party, something he signally failed to do following the party's humiliating defeat in 2017 at the hands of the most incompetent and divided Conservative government in living memory.
