(Jewish News) A British Muslim activist who led an attempt to force Labour councillors to call for Keir Starmer to resign over his position on Gaza has previously openly spoken in support of Hamas, Jewish News can reveal.
Mukhtar Master, who organised a statement criticising the Labour leader last week as the representative of 20 mosques in Preston, had previously told pro-Palestine supporters at a meeting: “In this day and age, brothers and sisters, we are all Hamas.”
During the same speech, the local government manager, now … the Muslim lead on Preston’s faith covenant, heaped praise on a Hamas-supporting friend who he said was sitting in the audience, saying: “Respect to the team, that’s what I say.”
