Jeremy Corbyn gives speech to party conference

Political Editor

Well, in his closing speech to the Labour conference in Brighton, Jeremy Corbyn declared the wreckage of the Grenfell tower was a “tragic monument” to what he called the “degraded regime” of neo-liberal capitalism.

Mr Corbyn said Labour under his leadership was now a Government-in-waiting – pledging to transform the British economy with a new and dynamic role for the public sector.
His speech was greeted with rapture by the Labour delegates – as our political editor Gary Gibbon reports.
