Labour urged to return £4m as ‘blood money’ linked to Gaza genocide
Palestinians look at the damage after an Israeli strike hit a tent area in the courtyard of Al Aqsa Martyrs hospital in Deir al Balah, Gaza Strip, October 14, 2024

LABOUR was urged to return its largest ever donation by its own MPs today after it emerged the £4 million “blood money” came from a hedge fund that stood to profit from Israel’s war in Gaza.

The party is said to “face serious questions” over its funding after an OpenDemocracy investigation revealed Quadrature Capital held £93m in shares in tech and logistics firms that have supported the ongoing massacre.

These include companies that help make Israeli F-35 fighter jets, which have been used in devastating air strikes on a “humanitarian zone.”
