An Imam who probed the Tory leadership contenders about Islamophobia is today exposed as an anti-Semite who sent tweets praising Jeremy Corbyn and blaming women for rape.

A series of vile posts by Abdullah Patel were retweeted last night moments after the BBC debate, in which he asked whether the candidates vying to be the next PM believed 'words have consequences.'

Patel, the deputy head of a primary school in Gloucester, said he 'wanted the candidates to admit that they've played a role in peddling this hate, and that things would change.'

But by today it appeared Patel had deleted his Twitter account after a number of controversial tweets were exposed.

After the posts emerged it sparked outrage on social media, and BBC Radio Five Live host apologised, calling his Twitter posts 'extremely disturbing.'
