Suspended Labour MP investigated after 'anti-Semitic' comments

A Labour MP who was suspended from the party after making 'anti-Semitic' comments on social media, will be investigated by an executive committee.

Naz Shah supposedly made the offensive remarks before she became a member of UK Parliament.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn described Ms Shah's comments as unacceptable, but later came under pressure to take matters further by suspending the MP.

Our UK correspondent Martha Holeyman reports.
