Billionaire businessman Lord Sugar has continued his feud with Jeremy Corbyn by apparently penning a poem about the Labour leader.

The star of TV series The Apprentice posted a 24-line verse about Mr Corbyn on Twitter.

In the rhyme, the politician is criticised for Labour's anti-Semitism row, his dress sense, his views on the monarchy and his reported previous relationship with shadow home secretary Diane Abbott.

The poem also mentions Mr Corbyn's support for his local football club Arsenal and brands him the "worst Labour leader since records began".

Alongside his "ode" to the Labour leader, Lord Sugar wrote: "Will some of the Labour MPs and Lords grow a pair and get him OUT."

Last week, the peer deleted a tweet showing Mr Corbyn in a car next to Adolf Hitler after the post sparked a row.

Lord Sugar, who was born into a Jewish family, wrote alongside the image: "Many a true word spoken in jest Corbyn."

The picture also added the caption: "When you're pictured at Nuremberg and claim you thought you were going to a car rally."

After Labour shadow chancellor John McDonnell led calls for him to delete the tweet, Lord Sugar apologised for sharing the image.

In response to Mr McDonnell, he added: "First let me say I am not the originator, it has been doing the rounds.

"You need to get Corbyn to make a firm statement about anti-Semitism. There is no smoke without fire in Labour."

Between 1997 and 2015, Lord Sugar was a member of the Labour Party.

He was appointed to the House of Lords in 2009 when he became an "enterprise tsar" for Gordon Brown's government.

The businessman, a former owner of Arsenal rivals Tottenham, quit Labour just days after the 2015 General Election, revealing he had been "losing confidence" in the party due to its "negative business policies" and "anti-enterprise" ideas.

Lord Sugar's full poem about Mr Corbyn:

Jeremy Corbyn, a bit of a scruff

Asked what he could do to come over less rough

His fashion advisers worked on his new look

And a fifty quid Matalan suit's all it took

Jeremy Corbyn, a stud of a man

A playboy was he with his lover Diane

She'd get into bed wearing only her blushed

And lie back with Jezza just thinking of Russia

Jeremy Corbyn, on Royals not keen

You won't find him singing to God Save The Queen

No Cenotaph bowing for this bitter man

If elected he'd call for a monarchy ban

Jeremy Corbyn, says many a critic

Is a dangerous fool who is anti-Semitic

He often says "I'm not a Jew-hating man"

"I'm just a big Hamas and Hezbollah fan"

Jeremy Corbyn, an Arsenal man

Supporting the team with his Islington clan

He cheers the left winger when he goes along

And 'Come on you Reds' is his favourite song

Jeremy Corbyn, a yesterday man

The worst Labour leader since records began

Though his party is coughing and spluttering and dying

Old Jeremy Corbyn's red flag is still flying
