Tonge defiant over fascist link

A PRC researcher, Nasim Ahmed, said that Ms Morvai was “not among invited guests” to the conference.

But the organisation failed to explain how the name of the leader of the far-right Jobbik’s European Parliamentary faction appeared on press releases about the conference published by Palestinian sources last month.

In fact, Ms Morvai’s name was still visible on Wednesday among the listed participants for the event, on a website called the European Campaign to End the Siege on Gaza.

The website gives the same address for the European Campaign as that for the PRC and lists the PRC as one of its formative organisations.

Maurice Cousins, of Nothing British, said that the group wanted Baroness Tonge and the PRC to “clarify Ms Morvai’s invitation to this event”.

He said: “Kristina Morvai has a strong relationship with BNP leader Nick Griffin.”

Earlier this year, according to Ha’aretz, Ms Morvai, in an open letter to Hungary’s Israeli ambassador at the time of the Gaza offensive, wrote: “The only way to talk to people like you is by assuming the style of Hamas. I wish all of you lice-infested, dirty murderers will receive Hamas’ s kisses.’”
