Labour councillor and former leader of Blaenau Gwent Council, Hedley McCarthy, believes that Keir Starmer is a "puppet" of the Board of Deputies who raises concerns about #antisemitism as a "sponsored question from his financiers", to please the "people with the money strings".
Cllr Hedley McCarthy shares antisemitic posts by Jackie Walker (she was lying - most of the people listed did in fact condemn the far-right actions mentioned). He recommends antisemitism denialist organisation Labour Against the Witchhunt's submission to the Forde Enquiry.
Cllr Hedley McCarthy is concerned that @UKLabour has become the "Netanyahu Labour Party of the UK" and that the party's representatives are "kissing his butt" (Bibi's).
Cllr Hedley McCarthy runs a Facebook group called 'The Daily Fib', which is supposedly dedicated to "exposing political whoppers" but dominated by antisemitic conspiracists who attribute nearly every problem to 'Zionists'.
But, hey, Hedley McCarthy is only a serving Labour councillor and the former leader of Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council! I reported him to Labour HQ some months ago but see no sign that any action has been taken. He still appears to take the Labour whip at council.
