Jeremy Corbyn joined the rally in support of Diane Abbott.
Former Labour leader called the abuse that Abbott receives 'abominable, almost unbelievable'.
Diane Abbott thanked residents of Hackney for 'decades of support' and urged them to ''make sure generations of young black people don't have to suffer the racism that we had to suffer''.
