A senior member of Wavertree Labour Party is behind a vicious attack on local Jewish MP Luciana Berger - accusing her of supporting the "Zionist Israeli government" whose "Nazi masters taught them well".

Margaret Tyson is Wavertree Constituency Labour Party's (CLP) elected representative on Jeremy Corbyn's Labour Campaign Forum - the body that helps select and vet candidates to stand for the party in local elections.

Wavertree CLP is already facing allegations of bullying and antisemitism against Ms Berger, who is heavily pregnant, with chair Dr Alex Scott-Samuel, who submitted a motion of no confidence against his MP, exposed by the JC as a Rothschild conspiracy theorist.

Another local Labour member, Kenneth Campbell, who submitted his own no-confidence motion in Ms Berger, was earlier found to have described her as a "disruptive Zionist".
