Labour’s Jane Aitchison paused for 12 seconds before answering a question about whether another Labour parliamentary candidate, Zarah Sultana, should continue to stand.

Ms Sultana has apologised for a 2015 social media post, in which she said she would "celebrate" the deaths of former UK prime minister Tony Blair and Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Speaking to BBC 5 Live's Emma Barnett, Ms Aitchison went on to say that “people do celebrate deaths sometimes… for instance they celebrated the death of Hitler.”
