Minutes into his speech, Mr Corbyn said: “There is a responsibility on all of us to take care with our rhetoric, respect democratic decisions, respect our differences and respect each other.
“We know that robust debate has at times spilled over into abuse and hate around our party, including misogyny and antisemitism, especially on social media.
“That is utterly unacceptable. Our party must be a safe and welcoming space for everybody and we will continue to take firm action against abuse and intimidation.
“And let me be absolutely clear, antisemitism is an evil, it led to the worst crimes of the 20th century, every one of us has a responsibility to ensure that it is never allowed to fester in our society again.
“This party always has and always will fight against prejudice and hatred of Jewish people with every breath in its body.”
