Corbyn and McDonnell were filmed walking out of the police station post-interview yesterday. Jeremy wasn’t feeling talkative…
Co-conspirators may have seen the footage from yesterday’s pro-Palestine march in London. The march broke through a police line on its way to the BBC…
Corbyn and McDonnell were photographed at the front of the rally, at which 77 people were arrested. The pair will voluntarily be interviewed at a police station in London this afternoon as the Met investigates what it claims was co-ordinated effort to breach the terms agreed with the march’s organisers. Ten others have been charged with public order offences…
Corbyn had hit back at the Met’s description of events, claiming he was “part of a delegation of speakers, who wished to peacefully carry and lay flowers in memory of children in Gaza who had been killed. This was facilitated by the police. We did not force our way through.” McDonnell was suspended from Labour back in July – he is due to be readmitted right about now…
Labour MP John McDonnell isn’t doing Starmer any favours in his attempts to make the party look serious about tackling rape gangs. Guido’s seen an email McDonnell circulated to all Labour MPs last night from a left-wing lawyer downplaying the scandal, describing the rape gangs as “alleged.” The email begins:
“I thought I would just drop you a quick note to assist with the debate today and the ongoing furore (Elon Musk, Mr Farage, and Ms Badenoch), regarding alleged grooming of girls by groups of men of Pakistani heritage.”
It then shifts the blame to the Tories:
“In simple terms, this is a problem caused by the Conservatives, who commissioned the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse and received its many reports, including the Organised Networks report and final report.”
A Tory source tells Guido:
“That a former Shadow Chancellor and one-time Labour leadership candidate is promoting loony lawyers who claim the grooming is “alleged” tells you all you need to know about Labour’s approach to this issue. Keir Starmer wants to sweep the rape gangs scandal under the carpet because the truth is too hard for Labour to confront. It is total and utter moral cowardice from a weak and spineless Prime Minister.”
McDonnell introduces the email with a note to say he “hopes” this “helpful” email will assist MPs “in responding to the appalling behaviour of the Conservatives and Reform.” Starmer will be praying his colleagues ignore the Corbynite’s advice…

Krishnan Guru-Murthy asked John Healey: “Just finally, I mean Andy Burnham has been very clear he wants Britain back in the European Union in his lifetime. Do you?”
The Chancellor replied: “I’m older than Andy Burnham. I don’t expect to see that.”
