The Apprentice star Dr Asif Munaf says he isn't shaken by calls to be struck off the medical register over 'anti-Semitic remarks' and hits out at the show after he was dropped from spin-off


Apprentice star Dr Asif Munaf has said he isn't shaken by the call to have him struck off the medical register over 'anti-Semitic remarks'.

The comments caused outrage across the Jewish community, with the Board of Deputies of British Jews complaining to Tim Davie, the BBC director-general and Samir Shah, its chairman, about having Dr Munaf on the show. Executives refused to take the programme off-air after the former NHS doctor continued to make 'grotesquely anti-Semitic' remarks after a BBC-organised diversity and inclusion training course. On Monday, Danny Cohen - former director of BBC Television - claimed the training 'clearly did not work' citing further offensive remarks by Dr Munaf.
