Labour councillor resigns because of 'spineless response' to antisemitism

Aiden Gray was a councillor for Cosham Credit: Porstmouth City Council

A Labour councillor in Portsmouth has resigned from the party because of the "spineless response" to antisemitism.

Deputy Group Leader Aiden Gray says antisemitism 'should not be tolerated' within the Labour party and that Jeremy Corbyn's slow response has been "appalling".

The councillor representing Cosham said that he could no longer be part of a party that is "alienating itself from the electorate".
