The National Union of Students has sacked its president Shaima Dallali after an independent investigation into allegations of antisemitism.
Dallali was elected as NUS president in March but was suspended from her role at the end of August and has now been dismissed after she was found to have “significantly breached” the union’s policies.
Since her election, the Department for Education and its quangos have cut ties with the union.
In a statement, the student union said: “Following the independent KC-led investigation into allegations of antisemitism, specifically into the then-president elect under the NUS Code of Conduct, an independent panel has found that significant breaches of NUS’ policies have taken place. As per this finding, we have terminated the president’s contract.”
