ian austin began his career working for gordon brown as an adviser and became labour mp for gordon brownod terms with jeremy but he has been not exactly on good terms withjeremy corbyn but he has been not exactly on good terms with jeremy corbyn for some time, but this is clearly a personal issue. he has been a critic of jeremy corbyn and the labour leadership for some time, that is no secret. but ian austin has a family history with regards to anti—semitism because his own grandmother, and his aunts, also died in the holocaust. he was brought up by refugees from the holocaust, so he has a personal interest in this issue. he said that the row that has led to this disciplinary action was as a result of him being unhappy with labour‘s sta nce of him being unhappy with labour‘s stance on anti—semitism because labour took on a new code of conduct which has upset several labour mps and many within the jewish community. severaljewish and many within the jewish community. several jewish newspapers criticised it a couple of weeks ago. margaret hodge had a stand—up row with jeremy corbyn margaret

one of them is a former aide to gordon brown, and he was adopted by jewish parents, and the other is very respected mp, and i think one of her grandmothers was killed in the holocaust. to take these people on i think isjust suicidal. it's extraordinary. let's look at the guardian, a couple of stories. think tank offered ministerial access to potential us donors. this is the institute of economic affairs, a secret recording of the director of the iea, mark littlewood.” secret recording of the director of the iea, mark littlewood. i know him well. fellow travellers, you know, pro— conservative, pro— free market, jolly good chaps. doesn't it concern you that the charity commission says an organisation will not be charitable if its purposes are political? and yet it has been established as an educational charity. i do think this is a grey area, and! charity. i do think this is a grey area, and i know all this because i runa think area, and i know all this because i run a think tank, i ran the centre for policy studies, which wasn't a charity, it was a company limited by guarantee, becaus
