Exclusive: Reform UK calls for immediate dismissal of WMP Chief, citing bias, mishandling of Maccabi Tel Aviv fan ban and failure to act on threats.
In our earlier reporting into the decision by West Midlands Police to ban Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters from attending the November Europa League fixture, we confirmed the existence of “smouldering gun” evidence of police inaction against specific individuals who were inciting and threatening politically or racially motivated violence against Israeli fans.
This grounded the case that West Midland’s Police decisions were severely compromised by a bias in favour of the local Muslim community, failing in their duties to investigating racially or religiously motivated threats.
The ban, which was demanded by high profile local councillors, MPs and leaders of several mosques, was attributed almost solely to the risk posed by Maccabi Tel Aviv fans.

We can exclusively present the full text of the letter, which sets out Reform UK Birmingham’s formal position on the handling of the decision by West Midlands Police to bar Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters from attending the Europa League fixture in November.
The letter is published in full and unedited, as submitted, and sets out Reform UK Birmingham’s reasoning in full, as part of the public and political record surrounding the growing controversy and demands for action.
