Social media posts by Lisa Forbes, Labour's candidate in Thursday's contest, include one from April in which she 'liked' a claim that Prime Minister Theresa May had a 'Zionist Slave Masters agenda'.

She also commented under a post whose author championed conspiracy theories that Islamic extremists were created by the CIA and Israel's intelligence service Mossad writing: 'I've enjoyed reading this so much.'
