John Woodcock, who prefers ‘Lord Walney‘ according to his X profile, has been referred to the House of Lords Commissioner for Standards for racist and Islamophobic targeting of our human rights group CAGE’s Senior Director, Moazzam Begg, according to a statement by the group.
A previous letter sent by CAGE International directly to Lord Walney demanding an apology went unanswered.
In its statement, CAGE described Woodcock as:mired in scandal.
CAGE’s Head of Public Advocacy, Anas Mustapha, said:It is about time that someone challenges Lord Walney’s abuse of his public position.
Lord Walney recently fumbled his way through an interview regarding concerns about the conflict of interest he faces as a supposed ‘independent adviser’ on protests.
