Jeremy Corbyn is expected to meet with Jewish leaders later today for talks following a row within the party over accusations of antisemitism.

Organisations representing Jewish communities will call on Mr Corbyn to use his “personal authority” to drive through changes to wipe out the problem in the party.

The Board of Deputies of British Jews and the Jewish Leadership Council (JLC) said there must be “action not words” when they accepted his invitation to meet.

The party’s shadow communities secretary Andrew Gwynne told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme on Tuesday: “We have got an issue in the Labour Party ... We have got to acknowledge that that problem exists and, for some, that is a challenge.”
