Corbyn: We won’t leave any of our heartlands behind

JEREMY CORBYN has outlined his vision for a post-Brexit Britain in which “no-one and no community is left behind” after Labour heartlands voted for leaving the EU despite the party’s position in favour of Remain. 

The Labour leader gave a speech on immigration in central London on Saturday, in which he said that the country is now entering “a new world” that the Tories cannot be trusted to navigate.

The country has to move beyond the “irresponsible” idea that people debating immigration are “Little Englanders or racists,” he added, because the issue “played a central role in the EU referendum campaign.”
