That was forthcoming, posted on social media just as PMQs got underway at midday, with Mr Williamson issuing a"sincere apology" and saying he regretted his choice of words.
They said:"He needs to be kicked out now. The PLP are going berserk, the unions are calling it out. He has to go." At around 5pm, just four hours after Mr Corbyn's spokesman had said he would not be suspended, the party confirmed"Chris Williamson is suspended from the party, and therefore the whip, pending investigation," the party statement said.
"We got there within a day, I think we got there in a timely fashion, and I think it does send out that strong message that Labour is taking seriously the challenge of rooting out antisemitism from within our party," he said.Other shadow ministers, who did not wish to be named, suggested the rapid reappraisal was more the result of the seriousness of the political reaction, than any swift examination of the evidence in Labour's Victoria Street offices.
Corbyn is worse.
Labour MPs are right about wrong direction of the party and plenty of anti-Semitism in the party and the blame should be at the door step Jeremy
Would never trust Mr C - He is a terrorist lover
Everyone knows the only reason right-wing propaganda machines are trying so hard to make anti-semitism stick is because of Jeremy's opposition to the actions of the government of Isreal. This deliberate conflating of two very different things is getting very tiresome.
So?
corbyn is no leader, he is an anti-Semite. There are over 300,000 Jews in the uk, (and thats just the Orthodox ) that probably wont vote labour.
The Zionist smear machine. IStandWithChrisWilliamson
NeilFindlay_MSP What’s happening here Neil. But shambolic again!!!
This party is akin to National Socialism, they were known as another name but like the Labour Party they were also Anti -Semitic
Corbyn was not sincere with his apology re: antisemitism. The only reason he apologised was because to get more votes on the next general election.
Don’t like Labour, can’t Stand Corbyn & don’t even care for Chris Williamson but as a Jewish guy I’m totally bored with this media controlled political pathetic outrage 🤦🏻♂️
Muslim loving Khan’t
No, it raises questions over the leadership!
They don’t have a process for anything it’s all make it up while your down the allotment ! C^nts
Labour are all over the fkn place they don’t know if they are coming or going
There’s a disciplinary process in labour?
Corbyn's basically stepped in and said we're not gonna play your games. We're not gonna be led by the nose. And in that we massively support you, jeremycorbyn.
Stop weaponising antisemitism. We see it.
