JEREMY CORBYN called for a fightback against racism and the rise of the far right at the massive Labour Live festival on Saturday.

Shadow chancellor John McDonnell introduced the Labour leader, who was met by chants of “Oh, Jeremy Corbyn” from the 13,000-strong crowd.

In north London’s White Hart Lane Recreational Ground, he recalled the 1977 Battle of Wood Green that took place less than a mile from the site of the festival.
