Warm Welcome For Corbyn At Stop The War Dinner

Jeremy Corbyn has defied his critics in the Labour Party by attending a Stop the War fundraising dinner and lavishing praise on the group. In a speech to 200 activists who paid at least £50 a head for a three-course meal, he said Stop the War was "a vital force at the heart of our democracy". But while he may be proud to be the group's most high-profile supporter, Mr Corbyn kept a low profile as he arrived by the back door for the dinner, held in a Turkish restaurant in south London.
