(Jewish News) The former secretary of Stroud Green Labour has been suspended within weeks of being elected after a poem expressing “love” for Hezbollah was exposed.
Huseyin Abudharr Ali, who was elected by 36 votes to 7 last month, has been suspended from the party and his role after online posts were uncovered, it is understood.
A review of Ali’s blog found a number of antisemitic references and a photograph of Ali standing next to a man holding up [a] Hezbollah flag.
It is believed the photograph was taken before Hezbollah was proscribed in its entirety earlier this year.
Ali, who described Jeremy Corbyn as an “anti-Imperialist and anti-racist” in 2017, is the secretary of the local Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) Haringey Justice for Palestinians.
