Comics Folk Respond To The Election Of Jeremy Corbyn And Leader Of The Labour Party
Jeremy Corbyn MP has just been elected as Leader of the Labour Party in Great Britain. A radical left wing political figure, he ended up on the ballot by the skin of his teeth expecting to do poorly, but had a ridiculously high mandate from the membership of the Labour Party, even as he lacks support amongst his own MPs.
