14:25Now PlayingJames O'Brien is baffled by a Jewish Tory councillor named Brett, who says, 'Western people in the UK cannot raise anti-Semitism without raising Islamophobia at the same time.'
Brett also says 'many' Labour MPs are 'anti-Semitic' in the same way as Lee Anderson is 'Islamophobic' and claims the conversation has now 'moved away from anti-Semitism.'
His comments come amid the widespread backlash to Anderson's 'Islamophobic' comments directed at London Mayor, Sadiq Khan. The MP for Ashfield claimed "Islamists" had "got control" of Khan - a comment which has led to him being stripped of the Tory whip.
