I have started to read the EHRC report and there is plenty to comment on but for now I will stick to the bit that I have personal experience of: the utterly unreliable and shambolic complaints process. Everything I'm reading in the report so far chimes with my experience.

My experience as CLP secretary managing complaints within my CLP and my experience as a complainant is that the process is slow, inconsistent, sloppy and designed to primarily uphold the party's hierarchy and protect its reputation rather than to deliver justice.

This is something I have come to expect in many organisations, although the lack of professionalism in certain cases was quite striking given the party's history. Do I have any faith that this is something that can be fixed? Not as long as this is treated as a factional issue, no

It especially won't be fixed if the party continues to treat this as a parenthesis in its history, an aberration, something that happened only because of that bad Jeremy Corbyn. And the email we received today from Keir Starmer gives me zero confidence that this is not the case.

Anyway, people should read the full report. The content is much more complex and nuanced than the headlines -and the reactions from various quarters- suggest.

For example, the bit about political interference. This thread is a good summary: https://twitter.com/HowUpsetting/status/1321775512260431874?s=20

And this thread is an example of why going along with simplistic "racist Corbyn" narratives as a result of the report is not just unethical, but bad politics from Starmer and his team. https://twitter.com/amandamilling/status/1321770400796336128?s=20
