The paper later deleted the quote from the online article as well as Ms Barber's description of Mr Corbyn's anger, in which she said he "suddenly turns from Mr Affable to Mr Angry" when antisemitism was mentioned, "as if someone has pressed a switch".
The statement that there is "no antisemitism" in Labour would contradict Mr Corbyn's previous position. In March 2018, Mr Corbyn conceded there were "pockets" of Jew-hate within Labour that the party needed to clamp down on.
The article was amended to say the quote had been printed "erroneously".
In the interview, Mr Corbyn also denies he "approved" of the infamous antisemitic Tower Hamlets mural whose removal he questioned in 2012.
He said: "I didn’t approve of the mural. I simply asked the question — why is this mural being removed?
"The following day, the council decided to remove it and I looked at it and said yes you’re right.’ How long had it been there? ‘Not long. A few weeks. Look. It’s been removed and I’m glad it was."
He also said "what's that got to do with me?" when Ms Barber raised how Labour candidate Dan Carden had sung "Hey Jews" to the tune of the Beatles' Hey Jude.
