Starmer has ended Labour’s antisemitism shame, says watchdog

But leader says that fight goes on as he warns against complacency

Labour is no longer being monitored by Britain’s equalities watchdog after the party successfully made changes to its law-breaking handling of antisemitism under Jeremy Corbyn.

Sir Keir Starmer described the judgment as an “important moment in the history of the Labour party” – but vowed that internal reform was not yet over and warned against complacency.

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) had been scrutinising Labour since it ruling that the party was responsible for unlawful acts of harassment and discrimination more than two years ago.
