John Mann enters House of Lords as new independent antisemitism advisor

John Mann, the former MP who quit the Labour Party earlier this year as he accused Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn of “giving a green light to the antisemites”, has been inducted into the House of Lords as a crossbench peer.

Lord Mann, who was formerly the Chairman of All Party Parliamentary Group Against Antisemitism, was appointed as an independent advisor to the Government on antisemitism. He has warned that between overstatement and understatement of antisemitism, “the biggest danger is that we will understate the problem.”

In his induction, Lord Mann was introduced by the former Chief Rabbi, Lord Jonathan Sacks, who tweeted in advance that it would be an “honour” to do so, and Lord Clarke of Hampstead.
