10:33Now PlayingKemi Badenoch has said her party “believes in second chances”, after the Conservatives selected a man who was once jailed for harassing a Jewish former MP as a local election candidate.
Joshua Bonehill-Paine posted on social media that he was “tremendously proud to announce” he has been chosen to stand for election to Somerset Council, in the Crewkerne South ward.
Mr Bonehill-Paine was jailed in 2016, after he was convicted of racially aggravated harassment.

In one post, he claimed the number of Jewish Labour MPs was a “problem”.
