It seems that I was guilty of a couple of bits of understatement in Friday’s post about former councillor Hanif Abdulmuhit.
First of all, he is not just campaigning for Labour, he is a candidate in Green Street West, the seat he previously held for both Respect and Labour.
And secondly, his support for the Conservatives went beyond now-deleted social media posts – he joined the party and campaigned for it.

This tweet is from September 2023 and Abdulmuhit is there, at the West Ham Conservative’s AGM. He’s on the right, partly hidden by Tim Roll-Pickering’s head.

And here he is campaigning for them.



I guess the Labour selection panel’s due diligence on his social media history wasn’t as diligent as it should have been.
