Corbyn is right to show humanity

MATTHEW d’Ancona believes Labour’s policies under Jeremy Corbyn represent an “antiquated ideology” [“Six weeks to go and divided Labour is still showing the cracks”, Comment, April 26].

It isn’t “antiquated” to want to ensure that no primary school child goes without a decent meal, as many do at present, and to want to put an end to the obscenity that in the fifth richest country in the world, many people have to rely on food banks.

It is called being civilised — something the privileged Mr d’Ancona should ponder on.
