A disgraced MP who accused a man of being 'too Jewish' on a 'sexist and racist' WhatsApp group was calling for more tolerance and an end of anti-semitism in Parliament at the same time.
Sacked health minister and Gorton and Denton MP Andrew Gwynne was condemned by Jewish Labour Part members and branded an 'antisemite' over comments he made to fellow MP Oliver Ryan and Tameside councillors on the Trigger Me Timbers group.
In the Labour WhatsApp group he described late American psychologist Marshall Rosenberg as sounding 'too Jewish', 'militaristic' and wondered if he was a member of Israel's secret service Mossad.
His latest comments have been criticised by the Jewish Labour Movement (JLM).
The group said: "JLM is appalled by the vile anti-semitic, racist and discriminatory comments made by Andrew Gwynne MP.
"The Prime Minister is right to have taken swift and tough action in sacking him and suspending his Labour membership.
"There must be no room for hatred like this in our party."
However, Hansard - the UK parliament's written records - reveal Gwynne was painting a very different picture in Parliament that same year.
Paying tribute to Holocaust victim Anne Frank, Gwynne told MPs: "As politicians we all - and I mean all - have a duty to root out antisemitism.
"It is our responsibility to show that we have zero tolerance of antisemitism in the Labour Party. There is no place for antisemitism in the Labour Party, on the left of British politics, or in British society at all. End of."
Gwynne also posted sexist comments about his fellow Tameside MP, Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner and a racist message about veteran Labour MP Diane Abbott.
He also said he hoped a 72-year-old woman who complained about her bins would die before the next election.
