QUOTE OF THE WEEK:

Joe Haines, Harold Wilson’s irascible press secretary, says: ‘Jeremy Corbyn is still credited by some political commentators, MPs and Labour activists alike for leading Labour to the brink of victory in the 2017 General Election.’ The truth is ‘he was responsible for Labour’s defeat . . . Solve the problem of Corbyn and Labour would solve most of our problems of today, including Brexit’.
