This is I feel not an issue that a lot of people in the party will want to fight over; aka an internal party investigation on anti-semitism. I expect the Socialist Campaign Group will put out a statement & but the lesson from the last parliament is that resigning the whip & splitting just lets the leaders office or one of the major unions fill your seat with someone else.
The Corbyn faction surely can’t soldier on here. And there’s enough MPs to desert the PLP

Is the UK in the middle of a massive energy and supply crisis? from the goings of the Labour conference it doesn't seem so

Out of curiosity what is it specificaly about trotskists that make them the biggest entryists into the labour party and why is Trot kinda generic insult against leftists in the UK ?
As to the first I believe that was a Trotskyist tactic they adored in the 80’s throughout the world. It’s success with UK Labour (relative success being marginal recognition for a sect that rarely gets any real attention) makes entryism sort of a Trots-textbook play. I heard a local trots bragging about how the UK branch took over Liverpool like it was the workers global revolution…

Why is that an insult? As their entryism came in a low moment for Labour in the 80’s and Tory media back then loved to highlight their shenanigans as the loony left.

This is my two pence
