MP, Labour's Deputy Leader
and Shadow Communities Secretary, commenting ahead
of Michael Gove's speech on Antisemitism said:
"There is no place in Britain for antisemitic hate and those who
push this poison should face the full force of the law. We all
have a responsibility to condemn this vile hatred and show that
it will never be tolerated.
“Michael Gove is right that most people on these marches have
been protesting peacefully and lawfully, but we cannot tolerate
the hateful minority and the appalling incidents of antisemitism.
“Labour will continue to urge Ministers to reverse the
downgrading of recording requirements for non-crime hate
incidents, bring forward a new Hate Crime Strategy, and crack
down on online extremism. Our door will always be open to working
together on finding ways of tackling this hate."
