MP appoints alleged Holocaust denier

Alleged well-known Holocaust denier and neo-Nazi ally Kasey Carver is appointed as Campaign Coordinator for Labour MP

Alleged well-known Holocaust denier and neo-Nazi ally Kasey Carver is appointed as Campaign Coordinator for Labour MP

Labour Against Antisemitism is appalled that Kasey Carver, alleged former ally of convicted neo-Nazi Alison Chabloz, has been appointed as official Campaign Coordinator for High Peak Labour MP Ruth George.

Ms Carver has allegedly shared a post about the "so called Holocaust", advanced a racist conspiracy theory about Israel supporting ISIS and commented on the "Zionist influence of the BBC". This does not appear to have discouraged High Peak Labour MP Ruth George from choosing Ms Carver to boost her election chances.

We condemn this appointment in the strongest possible terms.
