A British politician, who frequently champions equality and social justice issues, has been accused of making an anti-Semitic reference over the classic Beatles tune.

noted, just a little more than a week after the alleged March 15, 2018 incident, Carden tweeted out a remark denouncing anti-Semitism:"Jeremy Corbyn has committed his entire life to fighting all forms of racism and fascism - & under his leadership there is no place for anti-semitism in the Labour Party," Carden wrote.

The Labour Party and its leader, Corbyn, have repeatedly been accused of anti-Semitic behavior in recent years. Last month, Jewish MP Louise Ellman declared Corbyn"not fit" to be prime minister and said he'd "Dan Carden has emphatically denied that," Corbyn said."If it's true it is utterly and totally unacceptable. I am looking into it.", Carden touted his center-left party's tradition of helping the world's poor and vulnerable."Since its foundation, the Labour Party has had equality and social justice at its core," he wrote.
