Hamas Front Group Gave £10,000 Cheque For British Labour Party Leadership Campaign

And their guy won!





Jeremy Corbyn's team has come under fire for allegedly taking thousands of pounds from a Palestinian group - whose leader has praised militant group Hamas.

Friends of Al-Aqsa are said to have given a cheque for £10,000 to Mr Corbyn when he was bidding to become Labour leader in 2015.

While a Labour spokesman said the cheque had been 'made out to the wrong person', it has not been made clear what happened to the funds.

A spokesman for Mr Corbyn told the paper Friends of Al-Aqsa's founder Ismail Patel had 'definitely donated' but that it had been declared and there was 'nothing dodgy going on'.

Mr Patel has previously praised Hamas for 'standing up to Israel' and insisted it is 'no terrorist organisation'.
Mr Corbyn has himself described Hamas and Hezbollah as his ‘friends’.
