Jewish Labour members accuse party of trying to 'censor' their antisemitism training programme

Another day... 

'Antisemitism training at this year's Labour conference is at risk of being scrapped after Jewish members accused party leaders of trying to "censor" the sessions.

The Jewish Labour Movement (JLM) has led courses at the last two conferences, but has withdrawn in 2018 claiming party officials demanded the removal of elements scheduled to be taught in Liverpool next month.

The Independent has been told that, in particular, Labour wanted the omission of references to high-profile cases like that of Ken Livingstone, who claimed Hitler had supported Zionism, and Naz Shah MP, who was suspended over a series of posts including one which appeared to endorse a suggestion that Israelis be deported to the US.'
