Hertsmere Tory group under investigation over alleged anti-semitic abuse

A TORY group representing one of Britain’s largest Jewish populations is under investigation for alleged anti-semitic abuse against a Labour candidate during a council by-election last year.

Hertsmere Tories are being investigated by Conservative HQ for abusive comments made against Dr Dan Ozarow, who is Jewish.

The academic was Labour’s candidate in the by-election for Borehamwood Kenilworth ward in February 2020.
