The BBC report https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-45359009 on Frank Field's resigning the Labour whip thus:
'Veteran Labour MP Frank Field has quit the party's group in Parliament, saying the leadership is becoming "a force for anti-Semitism in British politics".
The Birkenhead MP also blamed a "culture of intolerance, nastiness and intimidation" in local parties.
A month ago he lost a confidence vote in his constituency party, after siding with the government in Brexit votes.
Jeremy Corbyn has apologised for hurt caused by anti-Semitism in the party and pledged to stamp it out.
A Labour Party spokesman said: "Jeremy Corbyn thanks Frank Field for his service to the Labour Party."'
A Labour MP with a strong moral compass, quite rare, how about it Kate Hoey?
