Board of Deputies President Marie van der Zyl has welcomed the High Court’s rejection of Chris Williamson’s bid to have his suspension from Labour overturned.
She said: “The High Court’s rejection of Chris Williamson’s bid for reinstatement leaves two remaining questions: Why Labour took so long to suspend him in the first place and why he has not yet been booted out. This serial baiter of the Jewish community must now be expelled from the Labour Party without any further delay.”
