A Labour candidate who is trying to oust Boris Johnson from his seat at the general election on December 12 has apologised for tweeting anti-Semitic remarks. Ali Milani, 25, is the Labour Party candidate in the west London seat of Uxbridge and South Ruislip which Mr Johnson has represented since 2015. Mr Ali called for more to be done in the Labour Party and society as a whole to tackle anti-Semitism. The Labour Party is currently under investigation by the Equality and Human Rights Commission over its handling of anti-Semitism allegations. Mr Johnson won his Uxbridge seat in 2015 with a majority of 10,695 votes.
