Lender Labor drops off against anti-Semitism

london - Sir David Garrard, one of the biggest donors of the British Labor, is leaving the party. He accuses the Labor leadership that it does not act against the 'most blatant anti-Semitic' statements by party members

The British newspaper Observer reported that Garrard has donated 1.5 million pounds (over 1.3 million euros) to Labor since 2003. Garrard said that the party he has always supported 'no longer exists. '

Leader Jeremy Corbyn and other leaders of Labor have been under fire for some time because of alleged anti-Semitism within the party. According to The Sunday Times, twelve staff members from the leaders Corbyn and John McDonnell are active in groups on social media in which, among other things, anti-Semitic messages have been exchanged.

In 2016, Labor suspended the ex-Mayor of London Ken Livingstone because it would have done anti-Semitic statements. Livingstone said in an interview with the BBC that Adolf Hitler in 1932 pleaded for a move of Jews to the area that would later become Israel. According to Livingstone, Hitler supported Zionism before he turned and finally killed six million Jews.
