Baroness Chakrabati has Resigned
"The shame is too great. I can no longer obfuscate or condone what has happened to the Labour Party since my report on anti Semitism.
I will always remain friends with Jeremy but can no longer justify my membership of the House of Lords
.
After my long career fighting against prejudice I recognise that it was a mistake joining the Labour Party in return for my peerage. I should have remained politically independant.
I will continue to defend the rights of minorities and those whom society shuns.
I wholeheartedly apologise to my many Jewish friends who have stood by me in these difficult times"
