Labour frontbencher Kate Osamor has continued to employ an aide in her House of Commons office who was “immediately suspended” for endorsing antisemitic social media posts back two years ago, it has been revealed.
Elizabeth Dudley had previously 'liked' social media posts that mentioned Zionist conspiracy theories and made comparisons with Nazi Germany.
When asked about the activities of her Commons researcher, Ms Osamor, the shadow International Development Secretary, said in June 2016: “Having been made aware of these posts, the member of staff has been suspended with immediate effect.”
But the Mail on Sunday reported this weekend that, after keeping her job with the Labour MP, Ms Dudley has shared controversial messages, including one from anti-Zionist activist Miko Peled, who defended labelling Israeli forces as Nazis.
