Labour Halts Legal Battle Against Former Staff Over Antisemitism Report Leak

The party's decision ends a costly and divisive legal dispute involving key figures from Jeremy Corbyn's leadership era.

Labour dropped its lawsuit against five ex-staffers, including Seumas Milne and Karie Murphy, accused of leaking an antisemitism report.
The legal action, which has cost the party millions, was seen as politically motivated by many within Labour.
The decision to halt the lawsuit came after prolonged internal strife and financial concerns over the party's election funds.
The Forde report, commissioned to investigate the leak, highlighted factionalism within Labour and criticized both Corbyn's supporters and opponents.
Labour's move to discontinue the case has been welcomed by the accused but criticized by some party members as a waste of resources.
