Is Labour's NEC Personally Liable for Damages Arising from the Antisemitism Claims? That is the question raised by the Independent. I have no idea what the legal position is, although it may well be different from that of a charity.
It will also be crucial to see whether the Labour Party was following its own rules, reasonably relying on officer advice, and whether NEC members were trying to make judgements conscientiously of simply on a factional basis. It would be interesting to discover whether NEC members would have been less cavalier over claims of antisemitism and sexism if they were themselves subject to personal penalties.
