The Green Party of England and Wales has claimed allegations of antisemitism are “Labour smears” despite the arrests of two of its local election candidates in south London. Sabine Mairey and Saiqa Ali, both Green candidates in Lambeth, were arrested by the Metropolitan Police last week over alleged antisemitic social media posts. Despite leader Zack Polanski claiming he would disown candidates who made antisemitic comments, a leaflet distributed in Lambeth following the two arrests claimed that the party had been a victim of “Labour’s cynical misrepresentation” over allegations of antisemitism.
