Looks like they recently made up: "UK Labour Party is pro-Israel again, says chair of its visiting friendship group"

"After antisemitism drove Jews away in Corbyn era, MP Steve McCabe says opposition party has returned to traditional Israel-backing stance, but is concerned about the new coalition"

Wow, so you have to be pro-Israel in order to not be considered an anti-Semite?

What about all those Israelis marching against the govt in Israel, are they considered anti-Semites too?

Western political discourse has descended into utter nonsense.

There are entire Wikipedia articles on the history of Labour's issues with anti-Semitism- I know, because my link to one was posted before your reply was. The issue is much more nuanced than what you or the person you're replying to are implying.
