In this episode you’ll hear from Luciana Berger and Lisa Nandy, who were reacting to the Equality and Human Rights Commission report which found the Labour Party broke equalities law over anti-Semitism.
Luciana was a Labour MP until she left the party in 2019, saying she was "embarrassed and ashamed" to remain in a party that she believed had become institutionally anti-Semitic. She spoke to Emma about the anti-Semitic abuse she received from Labour party members, and gave her opinion on Jeremy Corbyn's response to the report.
Lisa sits on the current Labour front bench – and was part of Jeremy Corbyn's first shadow cabinet before quitting in June 2016. She spoke to Emma following Luciana’s interview.
Both women spoke to Emma before former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn was suspended from the Labour party over the EHRC findings.
