The party acted last night after initially backing Azhar Ali, who had told a meeting that Israel had allowed the massacre of its people on the 7th of October so it could attack Gaza.

Now, another parliamentary candidate for the party, former MP Graham Jones, has been suspended over comments he made about Israel at the same meeting.
