Government Exchange is part of a wider organisation called the International Centre for Parliamentary Studies (ICPS) and is described online as its “UK training division”.

The training body claims to be at the “centre of Whitehall”, with strong links to Parliament and Government. 

Its “highly informative” and “interactive” training courses are focused on Parliament, Government and policy making, and are directed towards civil servants and ministers.

Previous speakers who have been part of ICPS educational programmes include Lord Cameron, former Speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow, and former Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt.

Its courses have been used by the Home Office, the Department for Food and Rural Affairs, and the Ministry of Justice, according to the ICPS website.

Chaudhuri was a head of department at Government Exchange since 2019, according to an online bio. He was an account manager and was responsible for recruiting clients to sign up to training. 

Since being alerted to Chaudhuri’s tweets by the JC, the ICPS has suspended him with immediate effect.

“We have recently become aware of comments made on social media by one of our employees that are not aligned with our company’s values and culture. Effective immediately, this individual has been suspended,” an ICPS spokesperson said. 

In posts on X from as recent as December 2024, Chaudhuri has endorsed the belief that Jews worship Satan.

“Most Jews do not like to admit it, but our god is Lucifer… and we are his chosen people,” read one quote, falsely attributed to Harold Wallace Rosenthal, re-posted by Chaudhuri.

Another post re-shared by Chaudhuri depicts a Star of David with the following text overlaid: “The Star of David? Nowhere in the Bible or the Talmud is this referenced as the Star of David. However, the Bible does reference this to be the Star of Remphan belonging to Moloch (Satan).”

On October 26, 2024, Chaudhuri shared a picture of fake Talmud quotes depicting Jews as advocating for rape.

“A Jew may have sex with a child as long as the child is less than nine years old,” one fake quote reads. Another says: “A Jew may violate but not marry a non Jew girl.”

In the caption to the post, Chaudhuri wrote: “Really? Have you read the Talmud lately? Then how do you explain this. Zionism is an evil curse!”

Another post from August 10 claims to list the “Satanic verses of the Talmud’s ‘Jewish supremacy’”.

On August 11, Chaudhuri reposted a documentary entitled “Jewish ritual murder”. The film is described by its original uploader as “classic and important documentary banned 100 times over. It exposes the Talmudic ritual practices of the Zionist J3ws [sic]”.

Other posts make comparisons Nazi Germany and Israel. In a comment beneath images from the war in Gaza, Chaudhuri posted a photograph of emaciated Holocaust victims, with the caption: “The victims of yesteryear are the perpetrators of today.”

Other posts by Chaudhuri include comparisons between the Star of David with the Swastika, with the caption: “A country of settler occupation sitting on stolen land. The Fourth Reich.”

Another post from August 8 directly compares Nazi Germany with Israel. While the former is founded on “Arian supremacy”, Israel is founded on “Jewish supremacy”, the post says. The “signature method” of Nazi Germany was “gas chambers”, while Israel’s is “carpet bombing”.

Since Hamas’ attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, Chaudhuri has denied its scale online.

On October 8, 2023, a day after the massacre, he called the attack a “classic false flag”.

In May 2024, he re-posted his own Facebook post on X, in which he wrote October 7 was “allowed” to be carried out.

He has also erased the extent of Hamas’ attack by sharing the theory that Israel was responsible for killing its own citizens on October 7.

A spokesperson from the Community Security Trust told the JC: “It would be deeply troubling if a person with such objectionable views was training civil servants or anyone else on matters relating to the Jewish community.”

A spokesperson from Campaign Against Antisemitism told the JC: “These posts are utterly repugnant. From blood libel, to denial of the scope of Hamas' barbaric 7th October attacks in Israel, to equating the Jewish state with Nazis, Naveed Ahmed Chaudhuri's X account exhibits an impressive range of antisemitic tropes.

“It is alarming that such rhetoric appears to have gone by unnoticed by Government Exchange. Such extremist views cannot be tolerated by an organisation that provides training to our nation's civil servants."

A spokesperson from ICPS and Government Exchange told the JC: “We would like to take this opportunity to clearly distance ourselves from the views expressed by this employee, who holds a junior role in sales and marketing, and used personal accounts to share these statements.

“Government Exchange and the International Centre for Parliamentary Studies uphold a strict zero-tolerance policy against racism, discrimination, prejudice, or harassment of any kind. We expect all employees to adhere to these principles and maintain the highest standards of conduct.”

The Cabinet Office told the JC: “We are not aware of any current contracts for learning services provided by Government Exchange to government departments.

“We do not and will not procure services from organisations who hold antisemitic views. We take any allegations very seriously, will investigate this matter urgently and will take appropriate action if necessary.”

The JC reached out to Chaudhuri for comment.
