A leading member of the pro-Corbyn Momentum hard-left activism group claimed Jews were responsible for an “African holocaust”, the JC can reveal.

Jacqueline Walker is a vice-chair of the movement’s national steering committee and activist in south-east England.

Labour suspended Ms Walker from the party after the JC brought her comments to the party’s attention.

She has repeatedly claimed the ongoing allegations of Jew-hate against party members are part of a “witch-hunt” against Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.
