[Former London Mayor] Livingstone, who sits on Labour’s National Executive Council, said in a radio interview that he had never heard any anti-Semitic views expressed by Labour members during several decades in the party. He also said criticism of Israel wasn’t anti-Semitism, claiming Adolf Hitler had supported Zionism “before he went mad and ended up killing 6 million Jews.”

Livingstone was defending lawmaker Naz Shah, who was suspended Wednesday over anti-Israel sentiments she expressed before she was elected to Parliament last year. She has apologized over the comments, which include a 2014 Facebook post in which she shared a graphic that showed the outline of Israel superimposed on a map of the U.S. under the headline “Solution for Israel-Palestine Conflict - Relocate Israel into United States.”

Labour said in a statement that Livingstone had been suspended “pending an investigation, for bringing the party into disrepute.”

Не стали. Просто избавляются от одиозных комментаторов (не всякое слово в строку пишется).

О, это была классная новость. Наслаждался сегодня. Кен Ливингстон! Звезда лейбористов! Неустанный борец со всяким тэтчеризмом! Да заодно из гитлеровским сионизмом.

А оно им надо, чтобы их MP на той стороне Канала арестовали?
Там во многих странах за отрицание Холокоста и прославление нацизма статья имеется.

Австрия, Бельгия, Чехия, Франция, Германия, Венгрия, Израиль, Лихтенштейн, Люксембург.

Плюс более размытые законы во многиз других странах, где вписан коммунизм, отрицание признаных местным законом геноцидов вообще и т.п.
