“Jeremy Corbyn’s action in response to the EHCR (Commission for Equality and Human Rights) report has undermined and pushed back our work to restore confidence in the Labor Party’s ability to fight anti-Semitism,” Starmer tweeted.
The Equality and Human Rights Commission said in a report that the Labor Party, under Corby’s leadership, had failed to come to terms with anti-Semitic views in its ranks. Corbyn then said that such a conclusion was exaggerated.

In the British system, members of parliament have the right to represent their party if they have a so-called party whip, literally a “party whip.” With this status, they have access to party strategy papers or can run for party in elections.
Withdrawal of this status is considered a very severe punishment that a party will apply to its deputy. He then remains a member of parliament, but is listed as independent. This will be Corbyn’s position in the House of Commons in the future.

Corbyn has been a member of the party again since Tuesday
British opposition Labor renewed its former chairman Corbyn’s membership in the party on Tuesday. The new Labor leader, Starmer, apologized for the party’s failure to deal with its members’ anti-Semitism.
Corbyn said on Tuesday that he considered anti-Semitism “utterly disgusting, wrong and responsible for some of the greatest crimes” in human history, but said he was unwilling to accept the report. According to him, its authors dramatically overestimated the scale of the problem for political reasons.
