Livingstone quits Labour national executive committee
Former London mayor Ken Livingstone, who was suspended from the UK Labour party for saying Hitler was a Zionist, quits the party’s national executive committee, The Guardian reports.
“I had little choice because it is unlikely that my case will have been resolved by June when the nominations closed,” he says.
“It is a shame but I will be supporting the left slate of candidates and hope they win and keep supporting Jeremy. I do not blame Jeremy at all,” he says of party leader Jeremy Corbyn.
