      APOLOGY Earlier today I tweeted a petition about an Islington Council ban against the Blockheads performing with their chosen line up. The council has blocked jazz musician Gilad Atzmon from playing with the group.

      Since then I've learned that Atzmon, a former Israeli soldier, is not confined to the jazz world. I am told that in various blogs and in speeches he has adopted antisemitic language. I wasn't aware of this until after I tweeted the petition.

      As soon as I was informed, I deleted the tweet. I've always condemned all forms of racism, including antisemitism, and strongly disassociate myself from Atzmon's antisemitic views. I therefore apologise for tweeting this petition and any distress or offence it may have caused.

      Further to my statement above, I realise it's helpful to issue this further clarification.pic.twitter.com/V6oXi4NQ6e

      Replying to @DerbyChrisW

      Come on Chris...you have been involved in Palestinian solidarity for many years and Gilad Atzom is well known in these circles for years. Are you really telling me you didn't know as one so strongly opposed to #Antisemitism
