Jezza guards thwart raider

-

JEREMY Corbyn’s personal bodyguards thwarted a would-be robber who is thought to have been armed with a knife.

The incident unfolded after the Labour leader had finished campaignin­g in Hackney, East London, on Saturday.

But his armed protection officers, who are by Mr Corbyn’s side whenever he appears at official events, were still nearby.

They intervened and prevented the robbery, a source said.
