Corbyn appeals for unity following resignations from Labour

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Jeremy Corbyn has appealed to Labour members to remain united after seven MPs quit the party in protest over the leadership’s handling of Brexit and antisemitism.

In an attempt to calm tensions, the Labour leader emailed thousands of party members to express his “disappointment” at their resignations but insisted “our opponents are the Tories, not each other”.

Mr Corbyn said: “When millions are facing the misery of universal credit, rising crime, homelessness and poverty, now more than ever is the time to bring people together to build a better future for us all.
