A vice-chair of the pro-Jeremy Corbyn Momentum campaign group has been shortlisted to stand as the Finchley and Golders Green Labour candidate.
Emina Ibrahim, a cabinet member for housing at Haringey council, confirmed to the JC on Wednesday she was on the list of the party’s candidates to be interviews for the seat.
As a Unison union delegate Ms Ibrahim spoke out in 2013 against boycotts of Israeli trade unions and in support of Histadrut - a progressive force in Israel she said should be supported.
But her more recent support for Mr Corbyn will raise concern among most Jewish voters in Finchley and Golders Green.
