Ken Livingstone: ‘Jewish vote wasn’t very helpful; Corbyn will have to resign’
Responding to vast losses for the Labour party in the UK elections, former London mayor and Labour member Ken Livingstone says that, “The Jewish vote wasn’t very helpful.”
“Jeremy should have tackled [anti-Semitism] far earlier than he did,” Livingstone, who was suspended from the party and later resigned for claiming that Hitler supported Zionism, told UK’s PA Media news agency.
“It looks like the end for Jeremy, which is disappointing for me since I’m a close ally. I’m sure he’ll have to resign tomorrow.”
