All of the signatories are now ‘subject to a complaints procedure’, while a member of the Board’s executive committee has also been suspended

The 36 deputies who signed a letter in the Financial Times condemning the actions of Israel in Gaza are now facing an investigation by the Board of Deputies.

A statement from the Board this morning announced that all of the signatories are now “subject to a complaints procedure”, while some senior members of the organisation have been suspended.

They include the vice-chair of the Board’s International Division, who has been suspended pending the investigation into complaints regarding the letter, which was published last Wednesday and has sparked a communal row.

    Interesting bit at the end of the article:

    Last Thursday, 90 leaders from the US met Rosenberg for an emergency meeting and urged him to proceed with disciplinary action against the 36 signatories.

    So I guess this is another case of our institutions capitulating to the US. This shit sucks.
