UP until recently, Claines was very much a Liberal Democrats seat with the party returning candidates to County Hall with comfortable victories. This all changed in 2017 when the Conservatives took control of the division with a margin of victory the Liberal Democrats were usually accustomed to. In an area that has flipped from all Lib Dem to all Conservative on Worcester City Council in recent years, a change of hands in Claines could well be on the cards again. Whilst the Liberal Democrats have again put forward Mel Allcott, who has enjoyed recent election success in Claines having been elected to represent the area on Worcester City Council in 2019, Andy Stafford will not be seeking re-election despite his triumph in toppling the Lib Dems last time out.

(JTA) Seven months after being asked to kick out a group over allegations of racism, the board of directors of Boston’s leading Jewish coalition has come to a conclusion: Yes, the group’s president “elevated white supremacist voices” but it shouldn’t be ejected.
That’s the recommendation of an internal report issued last month by the leadership of the Jewish Community Relations Council of Boston, which includes dozens of local groups and community members representing virtually every local Jewish constituency.
In September, the JCRC tasked a committee with evaluating the Zionist Organization of America, whose national leader, prominent right-wing activist Morton Klein, was accused of “vicious attacks” on social media against “minorities, people of color, Palestinians, and fellow Jews.”
