Lord Ahmed has resigned from the Labour Party ahead of a disciplinary hearing into claims he made comments about a Jewish conspiracy.
He was due to face party executives tomorrow after being suspended by the party in March.
The Times uncovered footage recorded in Pakistan in which Lord Ahmed was said to have claimed - while speaking in Urdu - that Jewish lawyers and media were responsible for the length of a prison term he received for causing a fatal car crash.
In a JC interview last week Lord Ahmed suggested he may leave the party before the hearing if he was not presented with a full recording of the interview.
