Have the Tories suspended this anti-Semitic candidate or not?

A couple of days ago, the Tories said they had suspended council candidate Gulzabeen Afsar, who said she could never support “the Jew” Ed Miliband.

But according to Labour candidate Dom Anderson, residents were still receiving leaflets backing her candidacy yesterday.

So has she been suspended or not? And if she has, are the Tories still campaigning for her?
