A U.K. Labour Party member who suggested that Jewish news outlets worked with the Mossad has been reinstated into the party this week with a warning.
“Ms. Lockhart’s suspension has been lifted following the conclusion of the investigation and she has been reminded of her future conduct,” said a Scottish Labour spokesperson.
Mary Bain Lockhart, a Fife councilor, wrote the accusation on Facebook last year after Britain’s three Jewish papers published an editorial, saying “Enough is Enough” over the Labour’s anti-Semitism problem.
“If the purpose is to generate opposition to antisemitism, it has backfired spectacularly,” she wrote in a now-deleted post. “(I)f it is to get rid of Jeremy Corbyn as Labour Leader, it is unlikely to succeed, and is a shameless piece of cynical opportunism.”
“And if it is a Mossad assisted campaign to prevent the election of a Labour Government pledged to recognise Palestine as a State, it is unacceptable interference in the democracy of Britain,” she continued.
“Israel is a racist State,” she added. “And since the Palestinians are also Semites, it is an antisemitic State. It is time we stopped propitiating.”
