Is Labour Anti-Semitic? Panorama, BBC One, 10 July 2019 The programme contained an interview with Izzy Lenga who had experienced antisemitism after she became a student activist. Viewers heard her discuss her experiences: I’m Izzy Lenga, I joined the Labour Party in 2015… The antisemitic abuse I received was what I was subjected to every single day… Telling me Hitler was right, telling me Hitler did not go far enough… In Labour Party meetings… we’ve seen people engage in Holocaust denial… and that’s terrifying for Jewish members… It absolutely breaks my heart to say but I do not think the Labour Party is a safe space for Jewish people any more. If the programme were to be re-broadcast, we would include some additional comments (in bold below) from Ms Lenga’s original interview to give viewers further context around her experiences: I’m Izzy Lenga, I joined the Labour Party in 2015… When I was a student… being quite a high profile Jewish woman student, I was subjected to quite a lot of like nasty vitriol and abuse… The antisemitic abuse I received… was what I was subjected to every single day… Predictably a lot of it came from the far right… neo-Nazi abuse… telling me Hitler was right, telling me Hitler did not go far enough and even more… What absolutely baffled me, was at the same time, I was receiving… very similar and almost often the exact same tropes and anti-Semitic abuse… from the far left. In Labour Party meetings… we’ve seen people engage in Holocaust denial… and that’s terrifying for Jewish members… It absolutely breaks my heart to say but I do not think the Labour Party is a safe space for Jewish people any more. 14/12/2022 0800 News BBC Radio 3, 8 December 2022 In an item about the death at 101 of the last surviving member of the Dambusters, Johnnie Johnson, we said he was a member of the ‘infamous RAF 617 Squadron’. We meant to say the ‘famous 617 Squadron’. We apologise for the mistake. 14/12/2022 Six O’Clock News BBC One, 7 September 2022 In a report on the government’s forthcoming energy price plan, a business owner from Bath stated that her new annual gas bill had risen from £14,000 to £233,000. In fact the increase was just over £100,000. 13/12/2022 10 O’Clock News / BBC Breakfast BBC One, Sunday 6 November / Monday 7 November 2022 In coverage from the COP27 Climate Change summit in Egypt we referred to floods that “had left a third” of Pakistan under water. We should have attributed this claim to Pakistan’s climate minister. In fact experts estimate that the actual proportion of the country that was under water was around ten per cent. 8/12/2022 ad nauseam.... https://www.bbc.co.uk/helpandfeedback/corrections_clarifications/ |
