{{short description|British academic and political advisor}}Alex Scott-Samuel is a British retired lecturer in public health at the University of Liverpool, where he was the director of the International Health Impact Assessment Consortium. He is the chair of Wavertree Constituency Labour Party and has a seat on the Labour Party regional board for the northwest. He is the chair of the Socialist Health Association and is involved in the Keep Our NHS Public movement.[1] According to the constituency party he is Jewish.[2]

Biography

Healthcare

Scott-Samuel has published on topics related to health impact assessment, health inequalities, gender inequality and the politics of health.[3] In 1979 he established a politics of health journal, which later became Critical Public Health. Later he established the UK Politics of Health Group.[4]

In 2014, he was the joint author of a paper published in the International Journal of Health Services which claimed that the policies of the Margaret Thatcher's government had led to the "unnecessary and unjust premature death of many British citizens, together with a substantial and continuing burden of suffering and loss of well-being".[5] In 2015 he described Simon Stevens, Chief Executive of NHS England as the "cheerleader-in-chief for NHS privatisation".[6]

He supported the campaign to preserve the independence of Liverpool Women's Hospital, saying that the proposal to move it was part of the government plans to cut services and eventually privatise them.[7]

In 2017, he stood for election on the Momentum executive, and said that he was "an adviser to Labour's shadow health minister". The Socialist Health Association's director left only months after he was elected chair of the organisation.[8] As a result UNISON withdrew its financial support.[9] At the 2017 Labour Party Conference, he proposed a resolution on health policy on behalf of the Association calling for the reinstatement of the NHS "as per the NHS reinstatement Bill" which was passed unanimously.[10]

Controversy

According to the Washington Post he is a fervent Corbyn supporter and a major antagonist of Labour MP Luciana Berger.[11] He is said, by The Jewish Chronicle, to be at centre of allegations concerning the antisemitic bullying of Berger and to be associated with John McDonnell.[12] He submitted a motion of no confidence in her which was subsequently withdrawn[13] after Tom Watson called for the Wavertree party to be suspended.[14] According to Nick Cohen he is Berger's chief enemy.[15] The Economist included him in a list of conspiracy theorists on the Labour left in March 2019[16] and the Times called him a swivel-eyed middle-aged conspiracy theorist.[17]

He has appeared several times on a conspiracy theorist radio show, the Richie Allen programme, promoted by David Icke. He was interviewed about vaccinations in 2015 and talked about the Rothschild family, who, he said, were "behind a lot of the neo-liberal influence in the UK and the US." Wes Streeting called for him to be expelled from the Labour Party and Alex Sobel said "Sharing a platform with these men is incompatible with Labour membership”.[18]

He retired from Liverpool University in late 2015 but still held an honorary position until February 2019 when the university terminated it and removed his pages from the university website.[19]
