Labour MP ‘used taxpayer money to silence his Jewish ex-lover and assistant


Recommended Posts

A LABOUR frontbencher reportedly spent tens of thousands of pounds silencing his Jewish parliamentary assistant after she accused him of religious discrimination.

Khalid Mahmood, the shadow foreign minister for Europe, was taken to an employment tribunal by his assistant and former lover Elaina Cohen.

The case was settled out of court but Mr Mahmood's legal expenses was covered by the taxpayer-funded expenses system, according to the Daily Telegraph.

He also claimed £37,000 to pay for extra staff, partly to cover while Ms Cohen was absent during the tribunal.

Jeremy Corbyn's office was made aware of the case, the newspaper reported - raising fresh questions about the Labour leader's handling of his party's anti-Semitism crisis.

Ms Cohen told the Daily Telegraph: "I complained to Ipsa several times on the unfairness of substantial public funds being used.

"Ipsa should not be funding MPs in actions against their members of staff.

"We're in the middle of an anti-Semitism storm, and I had two years of hell over two tweets trying to bring it to the party's attention."

Sir Alistair Graham, the former chairman of the committee on standards in public life, said: “If public money is involved, there should not be secret deals like non-disclosure agreements used to resolve staff issues. This is about transparency.”

The pair were previously caught claiming for luxury hotel stays when they were lovers over ten years ago.

A spokesman for Ipsa said: “MPs may apply for a contingency payment for costs which are not covered by the [MPs’ expenses] scheme or where they expect to exceed a particular budget.

“Applications are considered by the Contingency Panel who assess whether there are exceptional circumstances warranting extra support.”
