About Diane Abbott

Diane Julie Abbott (born 27 September 1953) is a British Labour Party politician who served as Shadow Home Secretary from 2016 to 2020. She was first elected at the 1987 general election as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Hackney North and Stoke Newington. The first black woman to be a member of the House of Commons, she was suspended from Labour's parliamentary whip in April 2023 (after implying Jews have not experienced racism) and sat as an independent until the whip was restored in late May 2024. After the 2024 general election, she (informally) became Mother of the House, the longest continuously serving female MP.

Additional quotes by Diane Abbott
