This is The Word newspaper.
It’s a Hard Left publication published by a guy called Alan Davies aka Peter Loo.
This is the August edition.
It’s pretty bold dog whistle antisemitism. It’s not the first time this ‘newspaper’ has published a front page like this....

This was another recent edition. It asked ‘Which Side Are You On’ and presented Jeremy Corbyn and starving African children on one side and, prominently, a photo of the ‘Enough is Enough’ rally on the other. It was nakedly antisemitic. 2/
Mr Davies, the man behind ‘The Word’, was reported by @LabourAgainstAS to Labour’s compliance unit for a number of antisemitic messages he posted on social media (not just the ‘Which Side Are You On’ cover).
He was suspended. 3/
However, instead of continuing disciplinary action, Alan Davies continues as a Labour member & is Press Officer for Heywood & Middleton CLP.
He is a member of the Rochdale Local Campaign Forum.
He helps select Labour candidates.
He is a prominent and active Labour activist.

It’s appalling that no action was taken. It is appalling that he continues as a Labour member. The disciplinary process is failing.
On Friday I resigned as Chair of Tonbridge & Malling CLP. I informed @jeremycorbyn of my decision yesterday, below is my letter to him (thread).
Dear Jeremy,
Last year I was proud to be appointed as Chair of Tonbridge and Malling CLP. Following a successful if unsatisfactory general election I looked forward to the Labour Party coming together under your leadership to take on the Conservatives, both locally & nationally.
I also optimistically believed that further steps would be made by you and by the Labour Party to tackle and eradicate what was already a growing and concerning issue within some elements of our party: antisemitism.
