Diane Abbott has been readmitted to Labour Party, the MP has announced.
The veteran MP was suspended from the party for the second time in July last year after repeating comments about racism which she previously apologised for.
In a statement she shared on X, Abbott said she had been “issued with a formal warning” over a separate tweet where she referred to Israel’s military, the Israel Defence Forces as the “Jewish Defence Force”.

Fellow Labour MP Joani Reid was also readmitted to the party on Thursday evening after “voluntarily” suspending herself in March following the arrest of her husband on suspicion of spying for China.
