Jeremy Corbyn suspended for three months as Labour urged to launch new investigation

The Telegraph  

Jeremy Corbyn has been told he will be suspended as a Labour MP for three months as the party on Thursday faced calls to place him back under investigation if he refused to retract the remarks that first prompted his sanctioning three weeks ago. The former Labour leader was informed of the decision by Labour’s chief whip Nick Brown as he initiated his bid to try and overturn Sir Keir Starmer’s decision to withhold the Parliamentary whip from him. Labour sources confirmed that Mr Corbyn was told the length of the suspension could be reviewed depending on his actions – suggesting it could be shortened or extended depending on whether he issued an apology. Meanwhile, David Evans, the party’s general secretary, came under pressure to review Mr Corbyn’s case after he failed to delete a statement on Facebook in which the former leader claimed that anti-Semitism in Labour had been “dramatically overstated for political reasons”.
