Liberal Democrat councillor John Boyd compares Hamas to Jewish resistance fighters in the Warsaw Ghetto, sparking controversy and drawing condemnation from his party. Boyd defended and sympathized with Hamas's actions, accusing Israel of war crimes, genocide, and racism. The comments were made in a group chat obtained by The Jewish Chronicle. A party spokesperson denounced Boyd's opinions and condemned Hamas's terrorist attacks. This is the second time a Liberal Democrat has been exposed for inappropriate commentary against Israel.
