Jewish community reacts to the expulsion by Labour of Jackie Walker

The Board of Deputies of British Jews, the Jewish Leadership Council and the Community Security Trust have reacted to the news of Labour’s expulsion of Jackie Walker, for making comments that were “prejudicial” and “grossly detrimental” to the Party.

In a statement, the three organisations said: “The hearing took far too long to happen. It made the right decision, but nobody wins in this latest ugly case of disreputable behaviour.”
