Councillor Hassan Ahmed was thrown out of the party on March 22
A long-serving Nottingham councillor who was expelled from Labour almost a month before local elections says he will be taking legal action against the party. Councillor Hassan Ahmed, who was first elected as a Labour councillor for St Ann's on Nottingham City Council in 1987, was thrown out of the party on March 22.
But Councillor Ahmed has confirmed that he will be taking legal action against the Labour Party over its decision. He said: "It's public knowledge that I was expelled by the Labour Party, after over 40 years of Labour Party membership, on completely unfair and unfounded grounds. I am currently seeking legal advice to challenge that decision.
"The expulsion decision was made at the national level. I think the decision is unfair on the constituents in Radford who elected me to represent them in the city. Also, it's unfair to the local branch of the Labour Party in Radford, who selected me to stand for the party in May at a meeting last November."
