       The controversial Labour MP Clive Lewis has blasted over claims he blamed Israel for the far-right UK riots.

       In a tweet late last week, he linked to an article about Israel’s attack on a school-turned-shelter in Gaza that killed 80 people.

       Clive Lewis said: “The link between the daily inhumanity being meted out to Palestinians and rising Islamophobia in the UK are not unconnected.

       “The inhumanity being shown to one is giving ‘permission’ for the other. These actions diminish us all.”

       The Labour Against Antisemitism group told Sky News that the claim was “highly irresponsible” and demanded Mr Lewis’ immediate suspension from the Labour Party.

       Co-director Alex Hearn said: “It is very concerning that people across the political spectrum, from ‘anti-racists’ to the far right, have fantasised that ‘Zionists’ and Israel are to blame for unrest across Britain”.

       “A recent report by the Community Security Trust showed antisemitism in the last six months has gone up 105%, and that the pretext for these 1,978 incidents are often Palestine. This includes synagogues targeted 76 times and 121 assaults.

       “For a Labour MP to blame a conflict thousands of miles away for the recent racism in far-right riots in Britain is highly irresponsible.

       “When attacks against British Jews exploded following the Hamas 7 October massacre, no such link was made by Mr Lewis.”

       Mr Lewis recently sparked outrage after making a protest during his swearing in as an MP after the election, when he had to declare an oath to the King.

       He was then forced to retake the oath, after having forgotten to pledge allegiance to King Charles’ heirs and successors as well.

       Labour has rejected demands to suspend Mr Lewis over the accusation against Israel.

       A spokesman for the party said: “All complaints are treated seriously and thoroughly assessed in line with our rules and procedures”.

       While Sir Keir Starmer’s spokesman said the PM would disagree with the Norwich MP’s allegation, former Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell has leapt to his defence.

       The Labour grandee said: “It’s a bizarre warped logic that accuses Clive Lewis of antisemitism when he comments on how the visible inhumanity towards Muslims in Gaza displayed daily on our screens feeds into the inhumanity of some in our own country towards Muslims here.”
