Labour's Investigation into Diane Abbott Concluded, Decision on Reinstatement and Labour Whip Pending
May 28, 2024, 07:14 AM
Labour's investigation into suspended MP Diane Abbott's racism comments concluded five months ago. Despite receiving a formal warning and completing an online anti-semitism course in February, Abbott has not been informed whether she will be reinstated as a Labour candidate or have the Labour whip restored. Liz Kendall and Jonathan Reynolds have both indicated that a decision on Abbott's status will be made soon, but there is speculation that she may only be allowed back if she agrees to step down. The situation has drawn criticism from various quarters, with some accusing Labour of racism and unfair treatment towards Abbott.
