A Jewish Labour peer has described how he felt “quite sick” watching Jeremy Corbyn trying to justify his decision to stand as Labour leader.
Speaking to The House magazine, Lord Winston said he was not sure he “could say a civil word” to Mr Corbyn.
“I was one of the few members of the House of Lords here when Corbyn justified standing. It was bloody unbelievable”, he said.
“It’s a piece of history I’m glad I saw but it made me feel quite sick. There he was defending himself and then right at the back of the room, almost in the darkness, were John McDonnell and Seamus Milne, like puppeteers pulling the strings.”
