Antisemitism_in_the_UK_Labour_Party

Collier compiled a 250 page dossier on a Facebook group called "Palestine Live" which uncovered a number of featured antisemitic messages. Writing in The Times, columnist Melanie Phillips described the group as "a veritable cesspool of antisemitism", which Collier exposed in "copious detail". According to Kieron Monks in the Middle East Eye, the facebook group included links to neo-Nazi sites, anti-Semitic cartoons, and suggestions that Israel was responsible for the 9/11 terror attacks. Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn was an active member of the group but says he left in 2015. The Campaign Against Antisemitism used the findings of Collier's report to file a disciplinary complaint to the Labour party. Several other Labour Party members were suspended from their party as a result of the report.

He compiled a 200 page dossier on the British Labour Party, which was then submitted to the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC). In this report he documented 14 cases studies where Labour party members had no interest in Israel until Corbyn became the party leader, and then they became "radicalized". As a result of the EHRC investigation, Corbyn was suspended from the Labour party.
