An alleged antisemite faces trial accused of racially harassing a Jewish Labour MP.

Joshua Bonehill-Paine, 23, is said to have posted five abusive articles attacking Luciana Berger on his website.

Titles of the articles included "Racist anti-white Jewish Labour MP Luciana Berger exposed", "Is the Labour party a Jewish party" and "The Legacy of Operation Filthy Jew Bitch".

The charge states that he "demonstrated towards Luciana Berger hostility based on her membership or perceived membership of a particular racial group, namely Jews".
