Two Labour politicians are suspended for allegedly making anti-Semitic comments
Two Labour politicians, Graham Jones and Azhar Ali, have been suspended from the party after allegedly making anti-Semitic remarks at a gathering.
Mr Ali, who is on the ballot paper at the upcoming Rochdale by-election, allegedly blamed people in the media from certain Jewish quarters for fuelling criticism of a pro-Palestinian Labour MP.
It then emerged on Tuesday that former Labour MP for Hyndburn, Graham Jones, allegedly referred to "f-ing Israel" at the same meeting and that UK citizens volunteering to fight for the Israeli Defense Forces should be locked up.
A third senior Labour politician, Hyndburn councillor Munsif Dad, also attended the gathering and has reportedly been "spoken to" by Labour officials.
But Sir Keir Starmer has been accused of failing to act quickly enough, despite repeatedly claiming that rooting out anti-Semitism from the party was one of his top priorities.

In a dramatic and provocative letter, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei addressed American university students on Thursday, commending their "defense of the Palestinian people" amidst a surge of pro-Palestinian protests on U.S. campuses. His message, "Do not oppress and do not be oppressed," came at a time of heightened tensions and safety concerns for Jewish students.
Khamenei's letter, released during a wave of campus protests demanding a ceasefire in Gaza and divestment from companies with ties to Israel, criticised the U.S. government's support for Israel. He framed the students' activism as part of a larger "Resistance Front" against Zionist oppression, calling Israel's treatment of Palestinians a continuation of "decades of genocide and apartheid." He declared, "As the page of history is turning, you are standing on the right side of it."

The Gaza Civil Defense has reported the loss of 79 aid workers since the onset of the Israeli offensive in early October, with the latest casualty occurring after an Israeli strike on a humanitarian safe zone at the al-Mawasi camp, which killed at least 90 Palestinians and wounded 300. This attack is considered the deadliest in weeks. The conflict escalated on October 7 following a surprise operation by Hamas, leading Israel to launch a full-scale war on Gaza and enforce a near-total siege, severely restricting essential supplies. The offensive has resulted in at least 38,664 Palestinian deaths and 89,097 injuries, worsening the humanitarian crisis. Limited access to food, medicine, and water has intensified civilian suffering and complicated rescue efforts. Despite international calls for ceasefires and aid, efforts at the UN Security Council to address the conflict have been hindered by vetoes, highlighting the urgent need for resolution.
