British councillor suspended for anti-gay comments

A north London Labour councillor of Nigerian descent, Chika Amadi, was suspended after allegedly posting tweets which criticised gay pride marchers as “paedophiles”.

Amadi, a councillor on Harrow Council since 2014, was accused of spreading anti-LGBT messages on her social media accounts.

Labour suspended the councillor, and pledged to investigate after her Twitter rant caught the attention of LGBT rights activists, the Evening Standard UK reported.

Amadi’s Twitter account shared a story from Christian news website LifeSiteNews about nude men at a Gay Pride event in Toronto forcing a little girl to “cover her eyes”.

The tweet, since-deleted, added: “Nothing but paedophilia being labelled liberalism adults polluting children with their senselessness.”
