Labour adopted the IHRA definition in 2016. It was the four examples given along with IHRA which it ammended/changed. It has now adopted the full examples list.

However the Conservatives at the same period of time had not even adopted the IHRA definition.
Labour’s rulebook makes three references to antisemitism, whereas the Conservative code of conduct from December 2017 does not use the word once. But as it stands, we’ve yet to see any documents that make explicit reference to antisemitism or the IHRA definition of antisemitism. The Conservative party code of conduct does not expressly mention antisemitism once – let alone define it.
FactCheck: Conservative party rulebook doesn’t mention antisemitism

In July, we reported that the Conservative rulebook didn’t use the term antisemitism, despite Theresa May’s assertion that the party had adopted the IHRA definition. Just hours after we published our article, the Conservative party webpage seemed to have been quietly updated to include a mention of the IHRA that wasn’t there before.
FactCheck: Labour rulebook doesn’t mention IHRA antisemitism definition or examples

It became an issue because the media wanted it to become an issue. The media didn't report the IHRA definitions situation with the Conservative Party in the same way and also downplayed the Conservative Party's Islamophobia Islamophobia in the UK Conservative Party (1997–present) - Wikipedia

Labour won't rebuild into anything electable unless Lansman/Momentum get their claws out of the Labour Executive.

Hate is too strong a word..but while at the helm he has made Labour un- electable... his Nationalise this that and everything is a throw back to a policy that were rejected in the 70's by the Electorate .. which lead to decades of Tory rule. I could go on forever on what is wrong about a Labour party lead by Corbyn..

But the single biggest fact for my dislike of him .. from 1979-2017 i had voted Labour at a General Election .. but in 2017 i voted Liberal to my shame.. and with him and his like still there,will more than likely do so again.. thinking about it maybe hate is indeed not too strong. data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7 .

As I said, If they acted decisively and with immediacy on the issues in the Labour Party it would not have had to be a problem. But they didn’t and they don’t.

Exactly, it’s that ongoing attitude that is at the root cause. That ongoing denial.

The idea they are capable of re-nationalising anything they wish simply by raising taxes is hilarious.

When the incumbents propose to provide additional funding - they shout this will cost a million/billions and has not been fully costed and will somehow only benefit the rich.

... but can find the multi hundred billions to re-nationalise....hmmm

... ah of course I missed the bit the rich and enterprise will pay via their taxes...

The hard left aren't going to give up their grip on the Labour party regardless of this election.They've been working on getting into this position for 30 years, since the days of Militant.

Those Labour MPs who see themselves as moderates are going to need to find a new political home.
