indeed, he is the poster of what should be condemned in world politics and it's time that jeremy corbynwe will be able to form a very, very clever value of whatjeremy corbyn would ever do in this country if ever he were prime minister. the labour shadow minister, andy mcdonald, has said the labour party have given a ‘quite clear condemnation‘ of what is happening in venezuela. he was then asked if mr corbyn would personally condemn the venezuelan government. well, i know people are very interested in venezuela. it is an important issue but quite frankly, when i go around my constituency, it's not the first thing that people ask me about. what's going on is unacceptable, we've said so and the labour party have made it abundantly clear that that is their position. the duke of edinburgh well retire today. earlier we have been speaking today. earlier we have been speaking to the editor of majesty magazine normal mac —— who says he will still support the queen for public engagements. he will still be there and will most likely be around and make her feel witty with comments about what she ha

election isn't due for almost five years but westminster has been a volatile place recently and jeremy corbyne ready for the unexpected. labour's identified dozens of seats where they believe they can beat the conservatives next time round. and officials say mr corbyn is now in permanent campaign mode. but it's events thousands of miles away in venezuela that some want the labour leader to talk about. a disputed vote has given president maduro's ruling socialist party more powers. violent protests have left over 100 dead. would he now condemn president maduro after voicing support for him in the past? what i condemn is the violence that has been done by any side, by all sides, in this. violence is not going to solve the issue. the issues in venezuela are partly structural because not enough has been done to diversify the economy away from oil. that has to be a priority for the future. but critics say mr corbyn needs to go much further than that. well, iwould hope he would first of all condemn completely the dictatorial tendencies of the regime. and accept that what's seen ten or 15 years ago

what does jeremy corbyn really think about brexit?f he looks at the first years at the old they were party, they were all anti-eu. if you want to bring real socialism to this country, you cannot do that inside the eu. instinctsat his perhaps speak volumes. his instincts are to let they sure take its course, stand back, let the tories rip themselves apart and let the clock tick. happen, know what will but i think that the most plausible view is that jeremy corbyn, partly for ideological reasons, 2022, the next election, labor picks up -- labour picks up the pieces, conservatives said they will negotiate a fantastic deal which they will not be able to do. it will be up to jeremy corbyn to stand back and let the hard brexit happen. vonnie: give us some investment ideas. guest: that is more interesting. i think you should buy dollars. the dollar selloff has gone too far. hikenk the fed is going to rates a couple of times this year. you're getting paid to own dollars because the interest differential is still there. interesting fact. marke

the labour leader, jeremy corbyn, has spoken about the situation in venezuela — which fellow labour mpbed as "desperate". mr corbyn said he was sad for the loss of life, but did not outright condemn president maduro — despite mounting pressure. iam very i am very sad that lives have been lost in venezuela. the people that have died, either those on the streets or security forces attacked by people on the streets, all of those lives are terrible for the loss of them. there has to be a dialogue and process respecting the independence of the judiciary and human rights of all. i think president macron's call today for dialogue is a good one and there should be respect for the constitution and independence of the judiciary. do you condemn president madeira's actions? i condemn the violence done by any side, and by all sides in this. violence will not solve the issue. issues in venezuela are solve the issue. issues in venezuela a re partly solve the issue. issues in venezuela are partly structural, not enough is done to diversify the economy. that has to be a priority for the future but we m

jeremy corbyn and the hard left, they've never met a banana republic they didn't like.zuela being an example that britain should follow, nobody really paid attention, because he was an anonymous backbencher who was known to say eccentric things. now he is the leader of the party, we have an absolute right to know whether he regrets or recants what he said. it would be a sign of political maturity to come out of hiding and say that he got it wrong. do you think he will do that? there are things that the venezuelan government has got wrong, but i'm —— there are things that the venezuelan government have got wrong, but i'm not sure what tom is saying here. he is a free marketeer. but what was the situation like in venezuelan before hugo chavez came to power? it was a chaotic, great inequality, grotesque poverty... do you think you are closer to chavez and maduro your political philosophy, or tony blair? that is quite a question! to me, it's a question of... can you not answer it? let me answer in my own way. when a government is doing good things, as they certainly were un

tell us more about this response from jeremy corbyn? sarah champion's comments. she stood down last night, he accepted her resignation and when asked what she sacked, he said no. butjeremy corbyn has put the emphasis is on the crime, saying abuse and exploitation of women is a crime against women and girls, no matter who the perpetrators and saying it has been wrong to basically tar and whole community with the same brush. i don't think you can label a whole community. i think what you have to do is label those that perpetrate disgusting and disgraceful crimes against people. and they can be from any community. they can be white, they can be black, they can be any community, but they have to be dealt with as the crime of what it is. a number of people have criticised jeremy corbyn from these comments and they have hit back at sarah champion's resignation saying she has been pushed out from her position was simply addressing an issue and telling the truth and saying something may be other politicians were afraid to do. there has been a c

what i would say to jeremy corbyn is that he really needs to know what is going on in our country toone by both sides. violence has been promoted by the government. they have armed paramilitary groups which have taken the lives of hundreds of nipple in venezuela. maybe the mothers and fathers of those who have been killed would be willing to speak to jeremy corbyn to explain and to tell him what the real situation has been. people such as neil malander, a teenager who went out on the streets to protest because he was convinced he should have a different future, people such as fabian rubina, who was killed by a gunshot shot by a member of the national guard, and all he was trying to do was raises voice for a different country, for democracy. i am pretty sure the family of the people who have been killed are willing to let jeremy corbyn no what the real situation has been and how they have been killed during the past four months. —— jeremy corbyn know. nobody says it is easy to make spending decisions in the nhs right now, but among the unpleasant choices being made in parts of the cou

jeremy corbyn was very diplomatic with his language.e has had time to think it over. he was askedif had time to think it over. he was asked if he condemned it? he said he condemned the violence and the violence would not solve the issue. butjeremy corbyn has in the past praise mr maduro's regime. he says his success in policy areas like improving health and education were a cause for celebration. but when he was asked to condemn him today, the diplomatic answer he gave was there has been widespread support for this socialist regime, that he also supported the improvements that have been made to health and social care, but he condemned the violence. he picked up on that point that when an economy is dependent on oil prices, it is too dependent on one particular source and this was the wea kness particular source and this was the weakness and this should have been addressed earlier. defenders of jeremy corbyn say this is the silly season, all these attacks on his views are politically motivated. but there are some in his own cabinet who a

what exactly has jeremy corbyn what exactly hasjeremy corbyn been saying?ber he had raised the regime of president and that of his predecessor. he praised the way they we re predecessor. he praised the way they were able to improve health care, education for working classes and whatjeremy corbyn saw as an example of socialism that was working. now venezuela is in crisis so that all looks very different. we have seen dozens looks very different. we have seen d oze ns of looks very different. we have seen dozens of people killed, there is mass starvation now in the country. the labour party itself has condemned this and it has spoken out and called for the venezuelan government to respect human rights butjeremy corbyn, the leader of the party, he has been on holiday so there have been mounting calls for him to respond to this personally. he has done so today, he has condemned the violence on all sides, he has expressed sadness for the lives that have been lost but he was particularly pressed on his stance on the venezuelan leadership. what i condemn the viole

in the past, jeremy corbyn has praised the president of venezuela and his predecessorfor what he seesucation, health care, for the working classes in as well stop essentially, jeremy corbyn‘s previously is that this is an example of socialism working but things look so different now with the lives that have been lost, the clashes over there and also the widespread starvation that is happening in the country. but has been busy ramping up of pressure on jeremy corbyn him to respond personally on this matter. today he has, he has condemned the violence on all sides. he expressed sadness for the lives that have been lost but he was particularly pressed on his stance on president of venezuela and when given the opportunity to condemn the president, he did not ta ke condemn the president, he did not take this opportunity and that is exactly what his political opponents are nice evening on. a campaign group says a rising number of groups commissioning nhs care in england are cutting back on ivf provision. fertility network uk is calling for three full cycles to be provided to women aged unde

a number of people have criticised jeremy corbyn.e way some people see it. jeremy corbyn was asked if she was sacked. he said no. but nonetheless, people feel it was wrong that sarah champion felt that her position became untenable. that is, of course, because we have seen a succession of cases coming through the courts in which gangs of mostly south asian men have been convicted of grooming and exploiting young girls. that has led to questions of why it seems that the disproportionate number of asian men are being convicted of this crime. it is something that a number of people have tried to tackle. it is a very difficult issue as to whether races playing a part in this, and as to whether ethnicity and fear of being called racist is a barrier to police getting to the truth of what in some cases is happening and has been happening in many towns and cities across the country, as these convictions are approved. however, forjeremy corbyn, sarah champion‘s comments were wrong. he has accepted her resignation. he said it was wrong to sing

jeremy corbyn speaking this evening about the resignation of the shadow equalities minister sarah championdy. this one has been bubbling along for several days. have you got a clear sense of why sarah champion chose this moment to resign? she made those comments in the sun newspaper article because she was responding to the conviction in newcastle of a group of mostly asian men who were convicted of exploiting young girls. that's the context of her writing the article. she then became the subject of criticism for a number of days and that pressure was ramping up days and that pressure was ramping up because her comments caused deep offence and there were calls from within her own party for her to be sacked. she did try, in you like, an attempt to distance herself from the article, defending her comments, and saying that the comments had been reedited by the paper. she said the nuance had been stripped out. but it did not seem to have done the job and the pressure has ramped up on her. therefore she has tendered her resignation this evening. the territory she got into which was difficult, w

what strikes me is the way people in britain take a particular interest in venezuela because jeremy corbynvenezuela becausejeremy corbyn made vague noises about the country and suggesting she was a supporter of maduro. he is pretty quiet at the moment, colburn, because he is undoubtedly as baffled by the real situation as we all are. it is clear that venezuela has been administered in an appalling manner, for decades, and policies have failed. the state could descend into civil war and outright disaster. it is wrong to look at a hugely complicated sociopolitical situation to the trump prism meaning the evans are a contest between old right—wingers and jeremy corbyn— style left. a propaganda war, in terms of cold war creatures. they have always been problems in south american societies. the real problems are not necessarily caused by governments, but a few families and cartels who amass all the wealth. this creates problems in south american society, the public. it takes more sophisticated solutions than having a left— right political argument. seeing the whole thing in isolation this is th

jeremy corbyn is pretty quiet at the moment had the big reason for that is because he is undoubtedlysituation there as we all are and it is very clear that venezuela has been administered in an absolutely appalling manner for decades and policies have failed and the state could descend into civil war and outright disaster. what is wrong, however, is to look at a hugely complicated social and political situation through what i would call the trump prism, meaning that it is being simplified into a battle between right—wingers and left—wingers and the idea is that we are meant to pick a side according to old cold war cliches run by propaganda, but the reality is that there have always been endemic problems in south american societies and the real problems are not necessarily caused by governments, but they are also caused by a few families and indeed cartels who amass all of the wealth and this creates huge problems as far as the fabric of south american society is concerned and it takes far more sophisticated solutions to deal with that than simply having a left — right political argum

we thought it could be neil findlay a lothian msp who led jeremy corbyn's leadership campaign in scotland think possibly the most likely corbyn friendly candidate will be a not particularly well—known labour msp called richard leonard. he is still to confirm explicitly that he will stand although i understand he is considering it. it's likely he will face a challenge from anas sarwar a former labour mp. he lost his westminster seat in the 2015 rout when labour was reduced to one mp in scotland. but he came into the scottish parliament in the holyrood election last year. he's done quite well in the health brief over the last few months and he is quite well thought of amongst different sections of the party. i expect he will try and present himself as someone who can try and unify the moderate wing of the party while also being close tojeremy corbyn and the uk labour leadership team. it's obviously quite a prize, not only because it will be the scottish labour leader but that role now comes with a position on the national executive committee, the governing body of the uk labour party. that'

jeremy corbyn does not want to desert his old friend running venezuela, but cannot avoid the problemsefully nuanced in between line, but the opposition tell us he has it wrong. maybe the mothers and fathers of those who have been killed would be willing to speak tojeremy corbyn to explain, to tell him what the real situation has been. justin gatlin was wooed for his success at the world athletics championships. his agent explained why the crowd had got it wrong. 80% of google softwa re had got it wrong. 80% of google software engineers are male. discrimination, or a sign that women are not into programming? there is an argument about it at google, and we are having it too. we will ask if it is even politically correct to talk about such issues. getting to know the dup. stacey dooley meet some of its supporters. how helpful do you think it is to put these posters on the bonfire? they are our enemies. we belong to britain. we are british subjects. i have a british passport. i am proud to say lam british passport. i am proud to say i am british. hello. we don't know what the venezuelans

i mean, this is jeremy corbyn, supposedly extreme leftist. i think actually as much by chance as by design, labour put together a pragmatic and appealing manifesto to lots of different groups. but nonetheless, i think, you know, i think our political classes will, you know, will have noticed the enormous popularity of this, of the policy of abolishing tuition fees. i think it's clearly a regretted policy. although, i mean, i think it's one of -- because it happens so relatively recently and quickly in the u.k., i mean, the cultural political power of higher education is a very understudied subject. and, indeed, we were just talking earlier about this. this last election in britain sort of brought it to the surface for the first time. we talked about, you know, the university -- we've always talked about universities, we used to just mean oxford and cambridge. now about 20%, perhaps, of the seats in british parliament have a stable element not only of -- a substantial element not only of students and staff from universities, but lots of, gener

at the top of the party, jeremy corbyn and john mcdonald have talked on different occasions about leavinghe single market. out meant out. during the election, lots of voters, suntory and ukip will have on to labour on the suction that that was the party 's position. there are of course other people in the party who favour what you describe as a soft brexit. it sounds like that side has won the argument. keir starmer has written an article arguing that what should happen once britain has completed these talks has left the eu, that it should then enter a transitional period, during which britain will remain within the single market. he says it could be two to four years. whatever happens next we shall see. what's interesting is that during the summer, that seems to be pretty close to the position people associated with philip hammond. some said he favoured a transitional period that perhaps need never end. but of course, about a week ago he and liam fox wrote an article for my newspaper, the daily telegraph, saying we have decided out means out. we will not be bowled by any treaties. so lab

this is what i'm hearing and if we look at what happened in the uk jeremy corbyn was fought by his own party at every single turn. he won the leadership and he was sabotage. he faced an internal coup where they tried to unseat him as leader and then he held on and now after the election results which were so surprising, where he won i believe 32 when he was supposed to have been wiped out. people admits that this is the way to win elections and we will see whether the democratic party learns from that or not. i think the corbyn campaign is going to be a fight and there are some who say it's not even worth fighting within the democratic party. we will see. this goes a tough one because there are so many other samples in europe where it hasn't been transformation within traditional parties. it's actually the new parties that have cropped up that have captured the public imagination and one tremendous victories whether it's the example in greece or the progressive parties in france or portugal. who knows how we'll go? the hard thing in the united states as we have this winner-take-all sys

a number of labour party members called on her to be sacked and last night she stepped down. jeremy corbynessed today for his opinion on her comments, particularly on the issue of race and this crime. what he said is he has very much put the emphasis on the crime itself. he said this is a crime against women no matter who it is committed by and he has spoken out about what he says of her comments were wrong to make a sweeping generalisation about an entire community. i do not think you can label lay an entire community. i think you have to label those who perpetrate disgusting and disgraceful crimes and they can be from any community. they can be white, black, they can be any community but they have to be dealt with for the crime as it is. and after rodber and other cases of that sort where british pakistani men groomed and abused young white girls, there has been a lot of debate about people being able to discuss this without being the fear of being labelled racist. there are concerns, aren't there, that this episode over sarah champion is closing down that space in some way that that deb

election isn‘t due for almost five years but westminster has been a volatile place recently and jeremy corbynousands of miles away in venezuela that some want the labour leader to talk about. a disputed vote has given president maduro ruling socialist party more powers. violent protests have left over 100 dead. would he now condemn president maduro after voicing support for him in the past? what i condemn is the violence that has been done by any side, by all sides, in this. violence is not going to solve the issue. the issues in venezuela are partly structural because not enough has been done to diversify the economy away from oil. that has to be a priority for the future. but critics say mr corbyn needs to go much further than that. well, iwould hope he would first of all condemn completely the dictatorial tendencies of the regime. and accept that what's seen ten or 15 years ago as a role model has actually failed, let alone apply that kind of system to the uk. the labour leader is back where he feels comfortable, addressing enthusiastic supporters. over the next few weeks though his aim is
