Brent Civic Centre (Photo: Google Maps) Three councillors issued apologies last year after complaints around sharing alleged antisemitic material and breaking Covid-19 restrictions. Brent Council’s latest annual standards report – presented to an audit and standards advisory committee yesterday (Tuesday, May 11) – detailed complaints made against councillors in 2020. It noted 11 complaints had been formally dealt with, one of which resulted in a breach of the councillors’ code of conduct. Officers found Cllr Aslam Choudry (Lab, Dudden Hill) breached several sections of the code after he shared a video in a local support group that suggested the US is controlled by a “Jewish lobby”.
