British Jewish leader: UK Jews 'can't trust Labour'

One of the most senior figures in the British Jewish community warned on Thursday that the country’s Jews “can’t trust Labour”, dealing a blow to Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.

The President of the Board of Deputies, Jonathan Arkush, told the British Evening Standard that the party’s growing anti-Semitism scandal is poisoning relations and now damaging Sadiq Khan’s hopes of winning support from London’s 180,000 Jews in mayoral campaign.
