Labour urged to return £4m as ‘blood money’ linked to Gaza genocide

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.”
