A key figure behind Jeremy Corbyn’s rise to become Labour leader has said that some on Britain’s left are in denial about the impact of certain pro-Palestinian slogans on Jewish people.
Jon Lansman, the founder of the grassroots movement Momentum, said he and others had come to feel alienated by Britain’s main pro-Palestinian campaign and revealed he had recently joined the Jewish Labour Movement (JLM), the party’s oldest Jewish affiliate and one that was highly critical of Corbyn.
