'Eight Labour MPs have voted against the internationally-recognised definition of anti-Semitism, despite the party's ruling body backing it.
Labour has been dogged by an anti-Semitism row all summer.
A ballot was held on whether the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance guidelines, alongwith all of its examples, should be incorporated into the rule book of the Parliamentary Labour Party.
The overwhelming majority - 205 - backed the move, but eight voted against it. A further 12 spoiled their ballot paper.
It is not known who the MPs were who voted to reject the IHRA definition.'
Surely the eight individuals who voted against the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance guidelines, alongwith all of its examples, being incorporated into the rule book of the Parliamentary Labour Party would be proud to let the great British public know who they are. I wonder if Jeremy Corbyn was one of the eight?
I also wonder how the 12 spoilt their ballots. Slogans? I'd love to see those ballot papers.
