London-based Jewish comedian Harry Dineley was expelled from a writing group he had been a part of for six months after declaring himself a Zionist. The group's manager conducted an inquiry into his political views regarding Israel, leading to the decision to remove him.

Dineley stated that the manager told him his beliefs "support the massacre of an entire population" and that "you have no place in the group." Following this incident, a literary evening organized by Dineley was also canceled.

In response to the events, the Lawfare Project, a pro-Israel legal organization, sent a warning letter to the group's management. The letter argues that Dineley's expulsion based on his views and identity may constitute a violation of British equality law.
