One of the Labour activists leading the online attacks on Jewish Labour MP Luciana Berger has links to a neo-Nazi website called the “Anti-Zionist League”, the JC has learned.

Ms Berger faced two motions of no confidence from her local Liverpool Wavertree party last week for criticising Mr Corbyn over antisemitism, caused outrage and anger among party supporters. They were later withdrawn.

Using the hashtag #Murdochs-Democracy, the @evertonfc2 Twitter account repeatedly attacks Ms Berger, saying she is "not trusted by her CLP", and denounces veteran Jewish MP Dame Margaret Hodge while also sharing anti-Israel propaganda and material from antisemitic website RedressOnline.

The same @evertonfc2 account, which has 18,000 followers, could be found retweeting a vicious antisemitic attack on Ms Berger found on the neo-Nazi website Anti-Zionist League.
