A dossier of 43 stories of harassment, abuse and sexual violence against women at all levels of the Labour party has been submitted to Jeremy Corbyn’s office, prompting calls for the party to reform the way it deals with claims of sexual misconduct.
Women who submitted their stories anonymously to the Labourtoo site over a two-month period gave examples of being raped, serially groped, facing inappropriate sexual comments and being urged not to report what had happened.
The incidents, which took place in political settings ranging from Westminster to all around the country, also highlighted a number of weaknesses in the way Labour has handled the issue in the past.
