Supposedly the suspension is for his reaction to the judgment (parts of which he says he does not accept). I think Corbyn just made it easier for Starmer to make an example of him. He was always going to have to carry the can for this.
I see this morning he was still rehearsing the same old generalising claptrap about opposing “all forms of racism” (it’s always “all forms of” something with Corbyn - his devotion to equality is so perverse he simply can’t make any sort of judgment about degrees of wrong, priorities for action or strength of corrective measures). His blind spot on this is astounding. Mind you, and this bears endless repetition - he has friends in Hamas who are ideologically committed to the extinction of a nation state. Imbibing that sort of lunacy has to cloud your judgment sooner or later (or, perhaps, proves you never had much judgment in the first place).
