According to John Ware, Sam Matthews recommended Birkett, Schneider’s unnamed Holocaust denier, for suspension in an email to LOTO on 9th March 2018 https://www.thejc.com/news/uk/panorama-labour-antisemitism-and-the-facts-that-novara-media-won-t-publish-1.499827 https://twitter.com/schneiderhome/status/1285930670280323073
Matthews switched to recommending members like Birkett for suspension to LOTO after Schneider directly sought to interfere in “Jewish peace activist” Glyn Secker’s case. Something Corbyn claimed they did not do.

Schneider suggesting Matthews persecuted an innocent “Jewish peace activist” while doing nothing on a Holocaust denier involves at best a serious memory lapse & a complete mischaracterisation of Glyn Secker, who is an anti Zionist crank who claimed Israel co-operated with ISIS.
Schneider fully ‘fessing up to LOTO interference in antisemitism cases is certainly a new turn.
