Angela Eagle received homophobic abuse after challenging Jeremy Corbyn's leadership, a confidential report has concluded.

The leaked report into abuse and intimidation at Ms Eagle's Wallasey Constituency Labour Party (CLP) also recommended that the branch remain suspended for a year because it has become "toxic and divided in the extreme".

It warned that it is "not possible for the CLP to meet safely in the current climate".

A brick was thrown through the window of Ms Eagle's constituency office after she sparked a leadership contest by challenging Jeremy Corbyn's position.
