Over 200 Members of the Labour Party Call for an End to McNicol’s Double Standards
Justice Demands that Jeremy Newmark of the JLM is Suspended NOW
190 members of the Labour Party have written to Iain McNicol, General Secretary of
the Labour Party, demanding that Jeremy Newmark, former Chair of the Jewish
Labour Movement is suspended. No one has
played a more important role in driving the current witch-hunt of socialists
forward than Jeremy Newmark. Only 3
weeks ago he was meeting Jeremy Corbyn to demand that the ‘anti-Semitism’
witch-hunt be restarted.
Newmark
and his Zionist friends were taken aback by the scale of the left victory in
the NEC elections and by the replacement of Anne Black, Chair of the Disputes
Committee, by Christine Shawcroft. They demanded reassurance that the expulsion of those they had targeted go ahead as planned. Newmark was contemptuous of the idea of a fair hearing and such niceties as innocent until proven guilty. When Ken Livingstone was found not guilty of anti-Semitism he and his minions demanded he be retried!! Newmark demanded expulsions and Corbyn's office (blame Seamus Milne) granted him an audience.

It
is, therefore, a rich irony that the real reasons for Newmark’s departure from
his previous role as CEO of the Jewish Leadership Council should have come to light. The Jewish Chronicle, which is
normally little more than a Zionist propaganda sheet, broke an explosive story
in this week’s edition. Revealed: JLC audit reports Jeremy Newmark deceived it out of thousands of pounds

| McNicol is refusing to suspend his corrupt friend Jeremy Newmark |
Far
from being a resignation on the grounds of ill-health, as had been claimed,
Newmark had been forced to resign from his previous employer, the JLC, after being
confronted with an internal audit in 2013 which made
it abundantly clear that he had defrauded them to the tune of tens of thousands
of pounds.
Last
year an inkling of what had happened occurred when the Jewish Chronicle broke a story on how Newmark had avoided paying an Israeli taxi driver some £3,000.
On
Friday Newmark was forced to resign as Chair of the JLM. Now he must also be suspended from the Labour
Party. Thousands of innocent members of the Labour Party have been suspended for a tweet or even a poem yet this crook remains untouched.

 |
| Letter of Response to McNicol's refusal to suspend the corrupt Newmark |
It is outrageous that McNicol has refused to suspend Newmark on the grounds that he 'strongly denies' the allegations! So does every crook. That is the purpose of an investigation. To find out! How can anyone possibly say that a tweet or social media post brings the Labour Party into disrepute, the standard pretext for suspension, and yet allegations of fraud on a massive scale against a charity, do not? Even by McNicol's double standards this decision is shocking.
We call on Labour's NEC to take the matter out of the hands of McNicol and suspend Newmark forthwith.
This letter is a rolling letter and will continue until our demands are met. If you want to add your name simply send an email to:

Open Letter to Iain McNicol - We Demand the Suspension of Jeremy Newmark Immediately
Monday
12 February 2018
General
Secretary
The
Labour Party
105 Victoria St,
London SW1E 6QT
Dear Mr McNicol,
You are undoubtedly aware by now of the serious
allegations of fraud and theft which have been made against Jeremy Newmark in
the Jewish Chronicle. [Revealed: JLC audit reports Jeremy Newmark deceived
it out of thousands of pounds] [1]
Mr Newmark, who until recently was Chair of the Jewish Labour Movement was
Labour’s PPC at the last General Election for Finchley and Golders Green constituency
and is currently Leader of the Labour Group on Hertsmere Council.
These
allegations have been backed up by a comprehensive internal audit[2] by the organisation for which Mr Newmark was Chief
Executive Officer, the Jewish Leadership Council.
We
are extremely surprised that you haven’t moved quickly to protect the
reputation of the Labour Party by suspending Mr Newmark under Rule 2.1.8
pending an investigation.
Unlike
the thousands of people who have been suspended in the past two years, often
for nothing more than an innocent tweet or remark taken out of context, Mr
Newmark is alleged to have stolen or misappropriated thousands of pounds of
charitable monies. The cover up of this
alleged theft is now the subject of a Charity Commission investigation.[3]
[Jewish Leadership Council will co-operate with
Charity Commission over Newmark allegations]
Mr
Newmark, in his role as Chair of the JLM, has been the driving force in the
suspension or expulsion of people on the grounds of ‘anti-Semitism’. Barely three weeks ago Jeremy Newmark was publicly
criticising the Labour Party for failing to expel Jackie Walker, Marc Wadsworth, Tony Greenstein, Ken Livingstone and other members on the grounds of
‘anti-Semitism’. Jewish Labour group accuses party of failing to act
on antisemitism complaints
Given the high public profile of Mr Newmark and his
propensity for demanding disciplinary action against other members of the
Labour Party we feel that it is only fair that Mr Newmark should be treated in
the same way as his many victims. We are
therefore making a formal complaint against Mr Newmark for having brought the
party into disrepute and we expect that you will suspend him immediately from
membership in order that we can avoid further damaging headlines.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
