in the proceedings, albeit without identifying individual members. In February 2018, The Jewish Chronicle falsely reported that a blogger and Labour Party member was a Holocaust denier. IPSO upheld a complaint that the newspaper had misrepresented online comments, although it rejected three of his four complaints about accuracy. From mid-2018 to mid-2020, eight complaints to IPSO about the paper were upheld, two not upheld and two resolved through mediation. In August 2019, the British charity Palestinian Relief and Development Fund (Interpal) received an apology, damages of £50,000 and legal costs after The Jewish Chronicle published "false and defamatory allegations", implying that it had links to terrorist activity. On 23 August, the paper published a full apology, together with an article by Ibrahim Hewitt, chair of trustees of Interpal. In November 2019, The Jewish Chronicle published a ruling by IPSO that it had breached the Editors’ Code of Practice in relation to claims in four articles about a Labour Party member published in early 2019. IPSO also expressed significant concerns about the newspaper's repeated failure to answer IPSO's questions and said it considered that the publication's conduct during the investigation was unacceptable. In February 2020, The Jewish Chronicle acknowledged that they had made untrue and distressing allegations, for which they apologised, and agreed to pay damages and legal costs. In December 2019, IPSO found that The Jewish Chronicle breached the Editors’ Code by falsely describing a Labour Party activist as Jewish and as a member of the executive of the Labour Representation Committee; the paper corrected the article and published a full correction online. In September 2020, The Jewish Chronicle published an apology to a councillor about whom the newspaper had printed numerous false and libellous allegations. The newspaper alleged that the councillor was involved in inviting an activist, who it deemed to be antisemitic, to a Labour Party event; that the councillor ignored "antisemitic statements" made by a fellow activist; and that the councillor had "launched a vicious protest against Luciana Berger MP in terms suggestive of antisemitism" and had tried to "improperly interfere with a democratic vote at a regional Labour Party meeting". In addition to the apology, The Jewish Chronicle, its editor Stephen Pollard, and senior reporter Lee Harpin paid substantial libel damages and the legal costs. Also in September 2020, IPSO upheld a complaint against The Jewish Chronicle by Shahrar Ali, home affairs spokesman for the Green
