Corbyn drives party potty with TV comedy sketch

Jeremy Corbyn has angered colleagues by donning a dinner jacket and a fake fur coat for a television comedy programme in which the Labour leader said he was only "7 to 7½" out of 10 in favour of staying in the European Union.

James Lyons, The Sunday Times, 12th June 2016

The self-proclaimed "three guys with four legs" are back with a new series - and a special guest interviewee in the shape of Jeremy Corbyn. As with Nick Clegg last year, will Alex Brooker be reaching for his "Bullshit" buzzer much - or will Josh Widdicombe be chiming in with his own "That's true, actually" button? Given the government's record on disability issues, the leader of the opposition is almost certainly among friends here.
