The current Labour leadership has an eternal debt of gratitude to the Israel-linked Jewish Groups that participated in the Anti-Semitism Slander Campaign to overthrow Corbyn which was so extreme that at one point a Jewish Holocaust Survivor was accused of anti-semitism when he compared some of the actions of Israel to those of the NAZIs, in order to slander Corbyn by association (he was in the same panel in the conference were that Holocaust Survivor said that).
I'm actually surprised they're doing this and I wouldn't be at all surprised if it's structured to look good to the Press whilst not in fact doing anything meaningful ("some restrictions" that do "not suspend sales entirelly" has quite the stink of a certain very traditional structure in British Politics for a measure that produces certain headlines on the Press whilst not really doing what the headlines imply).
