Government ‘led by bullies’ and a ‘part-time PM,’ Jeremy Corbyn says amid Patel bullying allegations

JEREMY CORBYN condemned a government “led by bullies” today amid misconduct allegations levelled against Home Secretary Priti Patel.

He also criticised “part-time Prime Minister” Boris Johnson for being absent and not launching an independent investigation into her conduct.

The Labour leader said that Ms Patel would be in a “clear” breach of the ministerial code if the “serious allegations” of bullying are found to be true.
