Mr Corbyn mentioned: “There’s a lot of chameleons in parliament. It is about how a government should approach the society we’re living in.

“Should you’re content material with the degrees of poverty… that is your view. I am not. I do not imagine most Labour MPs are pleased with that. So they need to acknowledge that that is their alternative to do one thing basic. It appears to me they’re attempting to cross the buck.”
