Jeremy Corbyn

If there is a big realistic demand for a referendum, then surely the democrat in him and the democrat in me and the democrat in you would say, well, have that choice, make that decision.

I will certainly vote for it because I do think the people have a right to decide their own future.

I certainly was told that very often, to stay away from it all by a lot of people who should have known better.

It was absolutely disastrous for Scottish Labour in the 2015 general election when they lost all but one seat.

There is no hope of ending homelessness if we do not stand up to vested interests and take action against extortionate private rents.

Nobody in their right mind would get into one of those dinghies and cross the Channel unless they were utterly desperate for it.

The media, Reform and all the far right in Britain have created the most horrible and dangerous atmosphere in this country against refugees against migrants and against minorities.

Nigel Farage is the epitome of the establishment.

Clacton deserves better.

In reality, it is Israel's strategy, Israel's plan and Israel's determination we're up against.

This was a shocking response, which wilfully misrepresents and distorts my words in an attempt to avoid answering the question I had put to you.

There has to be a policy of stopping all arms trade and military cooperation of any sort with Israel until they end this settlement policy.

Baseless smears won’t change the truth: this government is complicit in apartheid, ethnic cleansing and genocide.

I don't think there is an overwhelming pressure, and certainly on the streets in my constituency this morning, nobody said anything about a general election.

The idea that it's morally bankrupt is a really disgraceful comment to make.

The world is a dangerous place. I get that. I absolutely get that. Instead of spending more and more on arms, let's put more and more effort into trying to bring about diplomacy and peace.

I was extremely angry about it. I was proud to be elected and to lead the Labour Party, elected twice to lead it, proud of the policies we developed, all of which were endorsed by Keir Starmer.

If Andy Burnham becomes Prime Minister in early July unopposed, then he's elected as Prime Minister by the Parliamentary Labour Party, we have a parliamentary, not a presidential system, so he has no requirement to call a general election.

He might say, well, actually, I would like to get a mandate on my own terms, but I don't think there is an overwhelming pressure, and certainly on the streets in my constituency this morning, nobody said anything about a general election.

So I think Burnham needs to come out with something that is a bit different.

The unpopularity of the government stems from the threats to welfare benefits, stems from the continuing austerity and is deeply unpopular for a lot of other policies, particularly its rather draconian attacks on rights of assembly and…

It seems to me that if there’s going to be a change, then there’s got to be some significant policy changes as well.

All of the media are very focused on a debate between the personalities, and no stage does any policy debate actually come into it, which I find very strange.

And that is exactly what happened. Once again, the Government has exposed its flagrant contempt for international law as well as its own cowardice toward Israel’s illegal occupation.
