A pro-Palestinian Labour group has apologised after it posted a message on social media referring to a “final solution”.

Labour Friends of Palestine and the Middle East (LFPME) said it was sorry for an “extremely poor choice of words”.

The group published posts on Facebook and Twitter on Monday about Labour’s support for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The caption, posted together with a picture of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem behind barbed wire, read: “The Labour party’s two state solution will END the occupation – our solution will be the final solution. #FreePalestine #EndtheSeige [sic]”.
