Channel 4 News presenter Jon Snow has said he cannot remember chanting 'f**k the Tories' while having his photo taken at Glastonbury.

The 69-year-old, who is one of the broadcaster's biggest names, is alleged to have told revellers, 'I'm supposed to be neutral', after his comment about the Conservative Party.

The veteran journalist said he took thousands of pictures during his time at the festival, but did not remember one reveller's account of him shouting the anti-Tory chant.

Yesterday @DannyMillea tweeted: 'Boss place that Glasto. Having a dance with Jon Snow and hearing him shout f*** the Tories is what dream are made of.'

The tweet, which has since been deleted, was accompanied by a photo of the broadcaster surrounded by a group of young men.

In a statement Mr Snow told MailOnline that, 'after a day at Glastonbury I can honestly say I have no recollection of what was chanted, sung or who I took over 1000 selfies with.'

A Channel 4 spokeswoman confirmed Mr Snow would not be commenting further.

Some MPs called for the Channel 4 News anchor to be sacked over the alleged remarks.

Andrew Bridgen, MP for North West Leicestershire, said: 'His position as a serious political interviewer is untenable after that vociferous, deeply offensive outburst.

'How could he possibly interview a Conservative politician after that outburst? It's disgraceful. He should to the decent thing and resign. If not, he should be sacked, of course.'

Fellow MP Philip Davies, who previously accused Snow of not hiding his political allegiances, said: 'It is a clear example of political bias, and is completely unacceptable for a publicly-owned, public service broadcaster to be so blatantly partisan.

'Channel 4 should dismiss him immediately from his position. If they do not, they would be just as guilty as he is.

Mr Snow tweeted that this was his first trip to the world famous festival. He added: 'Amazing to be amongst 200,000 at Glastonbury amid a real energy for a better politics'

Ofcom, the body that regulates the broadcasting industry, does have rules about neutrality.

However, these only relate to what what is said while broadcasting and do not cover what journalists do in their own time.

Mr Snow tweeted that this was his first trip to the world famous festival.

'First trip to Glastonbury: dusty selfies; great music; loads of longing for a decent politics,' he wrote.

'Amazing to be amongst 200,000 at Glastonbury amid a real energy for a better politics.'

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn got a 'heroes welcome' when he appeared on the Pyramid Stage

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn got a 'heroes welcome' when he appeared at Glastonbury, with thousands of people flocking to the Pyramid Stage to watch him speak on Saturday.

The 'Oh! Je-re-my Cor-byn’,' chant, sang to the tune of The White Stripes' Seven Nation Army, was also heard across the festival.

Glastonbury founder Michael Eavis said he was happy to give the politician a platform to celebrate his success.

'This is the man that's going to deliver on the things we've been campaigning for here.

'He's got the hearts and minds of millions of young people.'
