The hypocrisy of the Conservative party has today been exposed as one of their most prominent Muslim Lords also attended the terror conference they are attacking Jeremy Corbyn for. Lord Sheikh has been one of the most vocal critics of Boris Johnson and his comments about the Burka, Sheikh even went so far as to say Boris should be thrown out the Tory party!
Sajid Javid has called for the Labour leader to resign. Tory Chairman Brandon Lewis in the Daily Mail today says Corbyn’s attendance at the conference in Tunisia was “beyond the pale”.
The political blog Order Order revealed:
‘Sheikh, the founder of the Conservative Muslim Forum, declared in his 2014 register of interests a trip to a conference in Tunisia on the same date:
Visit to Tunisia, 29 September – 2 October 2014, to attend conference in Tunis at invitation of President of Tunisia; cost of flights and three nights’ hotel accommodation was paid by Government of Tunisia
In a post on his website from the time, Sheikh confirms the conference was about Palestine. The conference was addressed by Hamas and other extremist speakers who gave anti-Semitic speeches. Given Lord Sheikh’s other links to various extremists, surely CCHQ will have to act against him?
UPDATE: We now have a pic of Sheikh at the conference. Will the Tories be taking action? Pretty big double standard if not…’
Conservative MP Rob Halfon has now called for a full enquiry to be launched into Lord Sheikh saying:
“If this is true, re Lord Sheikh, in attending this conference alongside Mr Corbyn – & if it is true extremist anti semites & Hamas were in attendance & speaking, there needs to be an investigation by Conservative Party/inquiry re codes of conduct et al”
Whilst the criticism of Jeremy Corbyn on this is fully justified it will be interesting to see whether the Tories employ the same standards against such a prominent and outspoken Muslim Lord within their own ranks…
