Labour has suspended Jeremy Corbyn after an inquiry found the party responsible for "unlawful" harassment and discrimination when he was leader.

Afterwards, Mr Corbyn said the scale of anti-Semitism within Labour had been "dramatically overstated".

Want to know how we ended up with a useless incompetent moron like Boris Johnson as UK Prime Minister? Because his main opponent at last year's general election was Jeremy Corbyn. Easily the worst leader of the Labour party ever, whose time in the role was dogged by factional infighting, failure to stand up to the Tories over the disastrous project to leave the EU and endless anti-Semitism scandals.
