Labour members who questioned the loyalty of British Jews ‘have been investigated’ 

Labour members who questioned the loyalty of British Jews have been investigated as part of Labour Party internal inquiries into anti-Semitism, it was claimed last night.

A former Labour investigations officer sought to lift the lid on the nature of anti-Semitism allegations within the party.

Dan Hogan, who quit his party post earlier, added that he had also carried out disciplinary inquiries into party members who ‘promoted Holocaust deniers’ and praised terrorists. 

The revelations came as the relative of a teenager killed in a terror attack spoke of his horror that Jeremy Corbyn had once met a Hamas chief linked to the murder.

Adam Ma’anit accused Labour of sinking ‘into an anti-Semitic cesspit of its own making’.

In a tweet last week, Dan Hogan, who worked on Labour’s internal disciplinary inquiries, stunned MPs by revealing the nature and scale of allegations investigated. 

Mr Hogan said: ‘I’ve done plenty of disciplinary cases against Labour members who compared Israel to the Nazis, peddled conspiracy theories about Israel, promoted Holocaust deniers, praised terrorists, and who questioned the Britishness or loyalty of British Jews.’

His remarks came amid private claims from MPs that the party does not have enough staff to handle all the anti-Semitic allegations coming in.

Mr Corbyn came under fire from Mr Ma’anit, whose 16-year-old cousin was reportedly killed by terrorists linked to ex-Hamas military leader Husam Badran, who appeared at a 2012 conference in Doha also attended by the Labour leader

Separately, Mr Corbyn came under fire from Mr Ma’anit, whose 16-year-old cousin was reportedly killed by terrorists linked to ex-Hamas military leader Husam Badran, who appeared at a 2012 conference in Doha also attended by the Labour leader.

Mr Ma’anit said: ‘I’ve been watching in quiet horror and with increasing anxiety as the Labour Party sinks deeper by the day into an anti-Semitic cesspit of its own making.

‘Recently revealed details of Corbyn’s troubling past associations means I can no longer remain silent. This is personal.’

Labour last night said: ‘Jeremy is determined to tackle anti-Semitism both within the Labour Party and wider society and the Party is committed to rebuilding trust with the Jewish community.’
