The Guardian reported:
It agreed to retract and withdraw accusations that the whistleblowers were motivated by their opposition to the party’s former leader Jeremy Corbyn and had “political axes to grind” and its accusation that Ware had conducted a “deliberate and malicious misrepresentations designed to mislead the public”.
“The Labour Party’s campaign to undermine the BBC Panorama documentary ‘Is Labour Anti-Semitic?’ was, in our view, an attempt to dismiss evidence of institutional anti-Jewish racism in the party.
It is only right that Labour has finally apologised to those involved in the programme, and especially to the seven whistleblowers who have reportedly faced months of abuse leading to emotional and mental distress.
.
