The article says that “there is arguably still some debate to be had as to whether these in themselves, without knowledge of intent, can always be defined as antisemitic.”
Daniel Kosky, UJS Campaigns Organiser, said that the IHRA definition had been adopted by the NUS, the government, the Scottish Parliament, the Welsh Assembly, more than 130 local councils, UJS, the Jewish Leadership Council, the Board of Deputies of British Jews and "many others".
“As such, we would expect all NUS Officers, staff, and volunteers would adhere to this definition, and for NUS to take appropriate action when this has not occurred,” he said.
The NUS said it had no comment as no formal complaint had been made or formal action taken.
This is not the first time Mr Nagdee has raise eyebrows with comments about Israel.
In March, the NUS officer also appeared to support violence against Israelis, tweeting: “The people of Palestine do not need to show anger on your terms. Their resistance does not need to be palatable to you… no resistance to an occupying force has happened through friendly natter.
“As the waves of settler-colonialism, racist laws, child prisoners and indiscriminate murder continues you want them to lead a nice liberal resistance for a Western gaze.”
