Two Labour councillors have been suspended after they posted apparently anti-Semitic comments on Facebook.
A party source said an investigation will be carried out into the comments made by both men.
One councillor called for Jews in Israel to "relocate" to America in a series of apparently anti-Semitic posts on Facebook.
Ilyas Aziz, who backed Jeremy Corbyn's leadership and appears on the site pictured with both Mr Corbyn and John McDonnell, also posted offensive images appearing to call for Jews to "stop drinking Gaza blood".
A second, Salim Mulla, claimed Israel is behind Isil and reposted the same message suspended MP Naz Shah prompted on her Facebook page about the "relocation" of Jews.

The Brits have a long history of telling Jews where they can and can't live. Not just by expelling them from their nation, but by preventing them from moving to Israel while charged with settling Jews in Israel, then palestine, the Jewish Homeland. Wonder how many Jews died due to the Brits duplicity. Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands. Could a million Jews have fled Europe? The Gaza blood cartoon, heck, the Brits invented the blood libel. Not particularly original
Ever since T.E. Lawrence bent over for Arab shieks the sick British have had a love affair with the verminous towelheads. Now they’re going to have a Muslim mayor of London, and later lose their nation entirely.
You don’t have to go to Britain to experience British antisemitism. I experienced it at an institution here in NYC which is run by Brits. It seems to be deeply ingrained in them, perhaps a national trait. Fine. They apparently seem hell-bent on handing over their country to Muzzslimes. After the handover is complete, do you think the Muzzlimes will allow native Brits to continue to live in Britain unmolested, free to practice their non-Muzzlime religion? Hah-HAH!
From what I can tell working with British Nationals for a long time is that they are Politically Correct first and foremost.
My observation only.
How many Jews did the British save by standing alone against the Nazis whilst America did nothing. It was the British who stood alone against Hitler, it was the British who took in tens of thousands of German and Austrian Jewish refugees whilst America took in NONE, it was thanks to the British that we had an allied army able to invade Europe and end the Nazi death camps and end their evil rule.
So Britain does everything right, and alone, and yet we still get criticised?. **** you. If we had left it for the Americans, there would be no Jews left in Europe. You refused to stand up to Hitler and you refused to even accept the fleeing victims of his anti-Semitism.
Amazing. So you criticise the British for alleged duplicity on Palestine, whilst ignoring the fact that its because of the BRITISH that the Jews even have a homeland!. Where is the American declaration of 1917 or any time of a Jewish homeland.
The blood libel is not British, it long predates the existence of Britain or England.
So an entire nation of 62 million people is to be libelled because you have met a few snotty leftwing Londoners?.
Yawn. Yes, the UK is now Muslim. The Prime Minister is in fact an Imam and I have to pray five times a day. Any more drivel about the UK you want to spout?.
Yeah, all British have an Arab/Muslim love affair because of one man 100 years ago.
Yes, one Labour lord mayor of one major city who happens to be a Muslim, and suddenly hats proof the entire UK is Muslim.
We haven’t and wont lose our nation, you lot have clearly lost your heads though.
Most English and British people (England and GB/UK are not the same btw) actually couldnt care less about Israel or Palestine. Most are long sick of it. The people who bang on about it are a (very) vocal MINORITY.
And that minority is anti-israel. NOT antisemitic. I am fed up with Jewish-American commentators who equate leftwing UK criticism of Israel with anti-semitism. Its a cheap, nasty trick. And lazy. The vast majority of this vocal minority may be loudmouth idiots, but they arent antisemitic. And I say that as a British Conservative.
The Jewish population of Great Britain lives happily without any major anti-semitism. In fact, Judaism is openly celebrated as a long standing and vibrant part of British culture. British TV ran Jewish documentaries across all five of its network channels last year.
Did America?.
British Jewish entertainers, writers, politicians and businesspeople openly celebrate their Jewishness. The London East End Jew, with his sharp wit and mouth is as well loved and known a cultural icon as the Glaswegian or the Cockney.
The current British Prime Minister is part Jewish. As is the deputy PM. As is the leader of the opposition party(Labour). So you have Jewish-descended people in the three most important political positions in the UK.
Are Obama, Biden, Trump and Clinton Jewish?......
The comments here about Britain are simply obnoxious. They are a disgusting slander on the vast, vast majority of the British people. Who are no more antisemitic than their American cousins.
The UK is the nation that rejected the naked antisemitism of the 1930’s Fascists, and continues to reject the antisemitism of the BNP and other fringe neo-nazi parties and groups. The nation that stood alone against Hitler, while America and others stood by. And the nation that liberated Belsen and saved Jewish lives.
To suggest that the British people are antisemitic OR that the jews of Britain are victims of mass cultural or physical antisemitism is a downright and disgusting lie.
That well known victim of British anti-Semitism Leo Frank, eh?.
The 2014 ADL Global Anti-Semitism study found the UK to be the 6th MOST TOLERANT AND LEAST ANTI-SEMITIC nation on earth.
One ahead of the US, in 7th.
So not only is the UK one of the best and most friendly nations to Jewish people, their faith and culture, we are actually less anti-Semitic than America.
I am angry, depressed and sick at the ignorant lies and Brit-bashing of yourselves in this thread. Clearly you have no clue about the UK and its people.
The "UK" of which you speak will -- in our lifetimes, perhaps -- cease to exist. London will be majority Muslim within 10-15 years, and 30% of England's population within 20 -- over 3 million now, TRIPLED in just the past 25 years. The noble past you describe is all factual -- and completely irrelevant, as it was not populated by Islamic savages.
No, it will not. The UK is 96% NON Muslim and that’s after 60 yrs of Muslims. The rise in Muslims will see the UK have 5 or 6% Muslims by 2050-2100. The idea that 4% in 2016 will be 50+% by 2050 or even 2016 is nonsense.
The Muslim birthrate will drop in coming decades not rise, allied to restricted immigration. The most loose estimate I have read says 10% UK by 2100, the average estimate is 5% by 2050, 6% by 2100.
The idea the UK is going to become some Muslim state with white British and non Muslims in a minority is balderdash old bean. Muslims aren’t even the largest ethnic minority in the UK in 2016!.
