UK: Ukip candidate sends abusive tweets to Jewish politicians

This keeps happening

The Jewish Chronicle reports:

A Ukip election candidate has been condemned for sending abusive tweets to Jewish MPs.
Posts from the account of Jack Sen, who is standing for the party in the seat of West Lancashire, targeted Labour’s Luciana Berger and Conservative chairman Grant Shapps.  The messages appeared to accuse the Jewish politicians of dual loyalty.

The tweets, posted on Thursday, included one to Ms Berger that read: “You're about authentic Labour as Ed Miliband. Protect child benefits? If you had it your way you'd send the £ to Poland/Israel.”

Another aimed at Mr Shapps stated: “So many top American politicians have dual loyalites. Sad to see someone so important in the Tory party with a dual allegiance.”  [...]

In an interview with a far-right website last month Mr Sen said: "What really angers me though is how progressive white Americans and Canadians descended from people that exterminated an entire race of people (native Americans) and White Ashkenazim that have about as much right to be in the Holy Land as I do in Borneo, aren’t being told they have to go home.  I’m not criticising Americans or Israel-just pointing out the double standard."  More.
