A Ukip candidate who described himself as “unapologetically politically incorrect pro-British” has been suspended after suggesting Shadow Minister Luciana Berger had split loyalties because she is Jewish.

In one Twitter message Jack Sen, standing in West Lancashire, said: "Protect child benefits? If you had it your way you'd send the £ to Poland/ Israel." In another he wrote: "Britain's youngest Jewish MP, Luciana Berger, is facing criticism over her record of.... loyalties."

Ms Berger said the comments were clearly “anti-Semitic” and “have no place in our politics”. She received hundreds of abusive messages after neo-Nazi Garron Helm was jailed for sending an anti-Semitic tweet to her stating “Hitler was right”.
