Luciana Berger: “I am the Labour....I am the MP for Liverpool Waverley. This morning we have all resigned from the Labour Party.”
“I have today come to the sickening conclusion (that Labour) is institutionally anti-Semitic.....the leadership has wilfully and repeatedly failed to address hatred against Jewish people within its ranks....I am leaving behind a culture of bullying, bigotry and intimidation.”
So it’s the Gang of Seven:

Luciana Berger, Angela Smith, Chris Leslie, Mike Gapes, Ann Coffey, Chuka Umunna, Gavin Shuker

Leslie now speaking:

“The evidence of Labour’s betrayal on Europe is now visible for all to see, offering to actually enable this government’s Brexit”
Gapes says he joined the Labour Party in 1968:

“I am sickened that the Labour Party is now a racist anti-Semitic party, I am furious that the Labour leadership is complicit in facilitating Brexit which will cause great economic social and political damage to this country.”
Chuka argues time has come to “dump” UK’s two-party system:

“We’ve taken the first step in leaving the old tribal politics behind and we invite others who share our political values to do so too. You might come from a Labour background but you might come from other traditions.”
