SHADOW chancellor John McDonnell predicted yesterday that Jeremy Corbyn is likely to face a leadership challenge in “the next few days” but warned coup plotters to “calm down” and respect democratic process.
He said: “Jeremy is leader of the Labour Party, elected with the largest mandate any political leader had from his political party only nine months ago.”
Mr McDonnell also warned that Mr Corbyn would be automatically on the ballot paper and had a good chance of winning another election.
