Corbyn the underdog can win – just like his beloved Arsenal did on Saturday
On Saturday, Jeremy Corbyn was at Wembley stadium watching the FA Cup final as his beloved Arsenal took on Chelsea, who had just won the Premier League title with 18 points more than the Gunners.

Jeremy Corbyn breezed through his biggest test of the election campaign so far with a calm performance that reflected his new friend “Monsieur Zen”. This French chap was on show for much of the evening as the veteran socialist fended off questions on everything from Labour’s business policy to those contact with the IRA. Corbyn came through the double whammy of an audience Q&A and then a face-off with Jeremy Paxman with, on balance, reputation enhanced. For some on the centre-left in […]

Gwynne demands answers before May and Corbyn take part in TV showdown
Labour has marked the return to political campaigning by demanding Theresa May answer six key questions over her manifesto u-turn and the “betrayal” of Britain’s pensioners. Andrew Gwynne, Labour’s election co-ordinator, said May’s pitch to voters had “plunged into insecurity” both retirees and working people. Campaigning was suspended for several days last week, following the Manchester atrocity, but has resumed over the weekend, albeit in subdued form.
