After 14 years of internal disputes over policy, factions, personalities, Brexit, and anti-Semitism, the UK's Labour Party was elected in 2024. Jeremy Corbyn's leadership faced challenges, including accusations of anti-Semitism. Despite winning the 2019 leadership ballot, Corbyn's tenure was marred by leaks, dysfunction, and allegations of anti-Semitism. Labour's loss in the 2019 election led to Corbyn's resignation. In 2020, an investigation found Labour failed in its zero-tolerance approach to anti-Semitism. Keir Starmer succeeded Corbyn and won the 2024 election, promising stable and predictable governance.
