Seven MPs of the UK’s Labour Party have resigned in protest at Jeremy Corbyn’s approach to Brexit and anti-Semitism.

MPs, including Chuka Umunna, Mike Gapes, Chris Leslie, Luciana Berger, Angela Smith, Gavin Shuker and Ann Coffey resigned from the party.

MP Berger alleged the party of becoming ‘institutionally anti-Semitic’ and therefore, she was “embarrassed and ashamed” to stay.
