Afzal Amin Suspended: Tory Candidate Claims Fake March Plot Was ‘Normal Conflict Resolution’
This is what happens when you ally with the far right allies of Pamela Geller, the EDL, who in this case appear to be thugs for hire.
A Conservative party spokesman said Mr Amin had been suspended from the party “with immediate effect” following allegations that he met with former EDL leader Tommy Robinson and the current group’s chairman Steve Eddowe as recently as Monday in an Indian restaurant in Birmingham.
Mr Robinson blew the whistle on the plot because he objected to being used as a pawn.
It is alleged Mr Amin attempted to persuade the EDL to announce a march against a new £18 million “mega-mosque” in Dudley, which would then be called off, allowing Mr Amin to take credit for brokering an agreement between the town’s communities, giving him crucial votes in the super-marginal seat.
