YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Zarah Sultana MP has resigned from Labour after 14 years to lead a new party with Jeremy Corbyn.

The MP for Coventry South made the announcement on Thursday evening.

She cited reasons such as the government scrapping winter fuel payments for pensioners, cuts for disabled people and the two-child benefit cap.

She also accused the government of being an "active participant" in genocide.

"We are not going to take this anymore. We're not an island of strangers; we're an island that's suffering," she said in a statement announcing her resignation.

As the news breaks, Iain Dale gives you his live reaction alongside Kevin Craig, Labour candidate in last year's election, James Schneider, Former Director of Strategic Communications under Jeremy Corbyn, and Michael Crick, Political journalist and commentator.
