The message, tweeted out on the party’s Twitter page, read: “As Jewish people prepare for Passover, we're wishing everyone in the Jewish community chag sameach #Passover.” The graphic included drawings of the Star of David, a glass and a loaf of bread. Social media users were quick to unleash a barrage of criticism against Labour.

“It's a whole festival of NOT EATING BREAD.”
Another Twitter user responded: “Astonishing (but sadly unsurprising) basic religious illiteracy from Labour.”
Another said: “Is this a joke? You know we don't eat bread during Pesach.”
