Jeremy Corbyn lost his temper during a broadcast interview as he blamed the media for his party’s dire poll ratings.

The Labour leader said that the media was “failing” in its duty to cover his parties policies and said it is “utterly obsessed” with his leadership.

Asked by ITV whether he has considered standing aside, Mr Corbyn said: “You’re obsessed with this question, utterly obsessed”.

Pressed further on the importance of a credible and strong opposition, Mr Corbyn repeatedly jabbed his finger at ITV News Political Correspondent Paul Brand.
