The Muslim Council of Britain has come out behind Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis' attack on Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn.
A council statement said, "Today's statement by the Chief Rabbi highlights the real fear many British Jews have, regarding the unacceptable presence of anti-semitism in Britain and in politics today. Racism wherever it comes from - whether from the left or the right - is unacceptable, and not enough is being done. We agree with the Chief Rabbi's observation that some politicians have shown courage but too many have sat silent."
