The Labour MP Kate Osamor has had the whip suspended while she is investigated for saying Gaza should be remembered as a genocide on Holocaust Memorial Day.
The MP for Edmonton in north London is due to meet party whips on Monday after issuing an apology over the message she sent on the eve of the day that marks the murder of 6 million Jews during the second world war.
There’s no way she didn’t know the backlash this would have caused for her and for the way her party will be seen this close to an election. Just brain dead to fall out of the party line with an election looming. And an MP for North London! Edmonton no less! Fuck me, she should have known better.
