    Disgraceful that ITV asked on antisemitism in Labour but not on rampant antisemitism, Islamophobia and racism in the Conservative Party. Just today it was revealed that a Conservative candidate said some events in the Holocaust have been "fabricated" #ITVDebate #LeadersDebate

    I retweeted this 5 hours ago without comment in a break in a Labour Party antisemitism panel - my 4th in the last month. In my view there is nothing in what Maxine Peake said that a Labour panel would view as antisemitic.

    So @michaelgove, can you explain why you retweeted in support of a man who made a joke about Jewish people wearing Star of David armbands, who alluded to Jewish blood libel about Israelis stealing Arab babies, who says homosexuality is a sin, and says Islam’s a problem in the UK?

    The man who heckled Jeremy Corbyn today was Rev. Richard Cameron. This longstanding account links to his church and says they're Richard Cameron. Here are some of his tweets.

    The Tories have absolutely no leadership left to offer the British people. Any Labour MP who votes today with the Tories to leave the EU with absolutely no idea where we are heading does not deserve to be a Labour MP

    This is a lie. I sat on a panel this month which imposed several expulsions under the new rapid expulsion powers which were proposed by Jeremy & approved @ Conference. C4 Fact Check must immediately remove this. They’re supposed to be checking facts not spreading untruths

    NEW: Jeremy Corbyn said Labour had 'strengthened processes' for dealing with antisemitism. But @FactCheck has seen a leaked internal document that casts doubt on the claim. channel4.com/news/factcheck…

    This tweet reveals not one iota of contrition nor any acknowledgement of wrongdoing following a further formal warning from the Labour Party for behaviour grossly detrimental to the party. Such contempt for the Party’s verdict! He has to go!

    I'd like to express my heartfelt thanks for the avalanche of goodwill messages from grassroots members. I can now focus on representing local people in Derby Nth and working for a Corbyn-led Labour govt to positively transform the lives of millions. Together anything is possible!

    Whilst I don’t want to comment on why we have a vacancy, Labour members in Birkenhead now have an opportunity to move on from London-based candidates parachuted into Merseyside, and to select a local working-class candidate who’s worked on the shop floor

    Johnson's deal will be a wrecking ball through the lives & well-being of ordinary people across Britain. Labour MPs cannot and must not vote for it. If they do, the NEC will have no choice but to replace them with a new, socialist Labour candidate at the next election

    This is a letter giving notice of Friday’s school Climate strike from my 5 year old granddaughter to her teacher. I’m very proud.

    Chuka Umunna is the ultimate creature of spin. He was massively over-promoted in turn by Labour’s left & right, by Ed Miliband but mainly by himself. He led a new centre party to oblivion, & has now joined the party he hoped to replace. Who cares?

    This has been a difficult few days for @UKLabour & for me, but there are two things I will not give up on: the battle against antisemitism; & the battle to elect a transformative Socialist government under the leadership of @jeremycorbyn

    Solidarity with @Baddiel - since he’s a Jew who’s talked about being non-Zionist, there’s no possible reason to call him a “vile Israel-fanatic” other than antisemitism. There clearly should be no place for @georgegalloway in @UKLabour or in the employment of @talkRADIO

    Since I've always made it entirely clear that my attitude to that country is entirely meh, I think we can only conclude that by "Israel-fanatic" George just means Jew. Vile Jew. And that therefore he is an anti-Semite. Now let him come at me with his stupid fucking lawyers.
