LONDON — Members of the Labour Party in the U.K. Tuesday turned on leader Jeremy Corbyn over his “betrayal” of Jews as they described rape and death threats they had received for speaking out against anti-Semitism in their party.

Corbyn sat in the Commons in silence as his MPs read out hate mail they had received from his supporters. Others received standing ovations for calling out the “bullying and intimidation” in the party as the Labour leader was told: “Enough is enough.”

One Labour MP was moved to tears as colleague Luciana Berger detailed the “torrent” of abuse she faced for being Jewish in a party in which Corbyn has allowed anti-Semitism to become “more commonplace, more conspicuous and more corrosive.”

The extraordinary scene erupted after months of discontent over his handling of anti-Semitism in Labour, which many MPs claim has been tolerated or even encouraged by sections of the party sympathetic to the leader.
