It comes after Mr Corbyn promised "watertight" investigations into claims of anti-Semitism within his party.
One Labour MP called his actions "irresponsible and dangerous".
But a leading Corbyn supporter said his attendance at the event was "not as significant as it's being made out."
Jon Lansman, founder of Momentum, told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: "It was his night off, he had nothing in his official diary, his office didn't know he was there."'
Not in his official diary? His office didn't know he was there. Is Jeremy Corbyn about to be seen as a liability by his party because of his actions?
The rest of the BBC article plays down the type of comments made by the Jewdas group. After all the BBC are more interested in keeping the UK in the EU and having a socialist UK government than in fighting antisemitism. Fortunately Guido Fawkes has two reports to tell us rather more about the sort of Jews that Jeremy Corbyn is happy to associate with. First this one https://order-order.com/2018/04/02/corbyn-last-night-met-far-left-group-who-attacked-his-jewish-critics-as-non-jews/
'A leaked audio recording obtained by Guido reveals Corbyn was present at a Seder held by "Jewdas" in Islington, where guests shouted "f*ck capitalism" and booed the names of mainstream Jews. At the height of Labour's anti-Semitism scandal, Corbyn chose to mark Passover alongside a fringe group that despises and is despised by mainstream Jews.
- Jewdas describes itself as a "radical"group that "opposes capitalism" and wants to "overthrow the state"
- It has tweeted that "Israel is itself a steaming pile of sewage which needs to be properly disposed of"
- It is viciously critical of mainstream Jewish groups. Last week it attacked the Board of Deputies of British Jews and the Jewish Leadership Council response to the Labour anti-Semitism scandal as "playing a dangerous game with people's lives"

It needs to be pointed out frequently that if say UKIP were accused of the same things as Corbyn, you'd have all and sundry calling for them to be banned. Somehow though that doesn't happen with Labour. About time it did.
