Imam Abdullah Patel, who is deputy head at the independent Al-Ashraf Primary School in Gloucester, featured during the leadership debate last night to question the Conservative rivals about Islamophobia in the party. His decision to appear backfired after the Guido Fawkes political blog unearthed posts on his Twitter page which promoted anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and warned women not to be alone with men in case they “take advantage of you”.
In a statement on the primary school’s website, the chair of Al-Madani Educational Trust which runs the school, said Patel had been “suspended from all school duties with immediate effect until a full investigation is carried out. It added: “The ‘school’ and ‘trust’ do not share the views attributed to him.”
