An Israeli athlete who survived the Munich Olympic massacre has branded Jeremy Corbyn an anti-Semite who he thinks should ‘disappear from the political scene’.
Professor Shaul Ladany, who competed in the race walking event in 1972 Games, blasted the Labour leader’s visit to the graves of four men linked to the terror attack.

British boxing hero Alan Minter, 66, who won a bronze medal in 1972, said Mr Corbyn should have been ‘honouring those who died… not the people who killed them’.
