A Green council candidate arrested this week over alleged antisemitic social media posts has been seen canvassing subsequently alongside other party members, with Labour saying it showed the issue was not being taken seriously by Zack Polanski’s party.

Sabine Mairey was among two Green candidates in Lambeth, south London, arrested by the Metropolitan police on Thursday morning.
