Some of the protests targeting MPs over the Israel-Gaza war are " crossing The Line " into intimidation, The Shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves has Said .

She made the comments after a demonstration was held in North London on Saturday.

Ms Reeves called for " civility and decency" when discussing The Conflict .

Labour MPs were This Week told not to vote for an SNP amendment calling for an immediate ceasefire.

On Wednesday, to defy Sir Keir and back The Amendment .

In total, 56 of the MPs voted with the SNP rather than the Labour Party 's official position, which is to call for " humanitarian pauses" in order to allow more aid into The Enclave while backing Israel's right to self-defence.

Ms Reeves called for the targeting of public figures by protesters to stop, telling The Bbc 's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg programme: " What I find very concerning is the huge pressure that MPs have been put [under] leading up to the vote and This Week .

" I support The Right to Protest - Suella Braverman 's are appalling.

" But I don't support the intimidation of MPs and I think that's what you are seeing with some of these protests now, outside of people's offices and outside of people's homes.

" MPs have got a difficult job to do - All public servants do - and this sort of intimation, taking protests to people's homes, goes beyond The Line . "

Hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters descended on Sir Keir's North London office on Saturday, chanting " Starmer, shame on you".

Shadow Welsh secretary Jo Stevens after abstaining on the Gaza vote, and told BBC Wales The Experience was " intimidating" and " threatening".

Bradford West MP Naz Shah - who quit the Labour frontbench to support a ceasefire - Said she has received " Islamophobic hatred" while Conservative Minister after he was surrounded by pro-Palestinian protesters at a London Train Station Last Weekend .

Ms Reeves Said she had not personally been targeted but Said it had happened " to colleagues" without providing specific examples, adding: " I'm afraid that some of these protests are now crossing The Line . "

Asked about the Labour rebellion over the ceasefire motion, Ms Reeves Said she was " sorry" to see resignations.

She added: " But being Leader - and hopefully next year, Prime Minister - Keir is going to make incredibly difficult decisions, and he's going to have to do what he thinks is right, and offer that leadership, even in difficult times. "

Former shadow chancellor John Mcdonnell Said he had not seen examples of antisemitism on pro-Palestinian marches he has attended, but Said he would challenge it if he did.

He told The Bbc : " It bothers me those chants, but they're so small a minority we've got the powers to deal with that. "
