Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn speaking on 75th anniversary of Battle of Britain

 Today Jeremy Corbyn and Tom Watson both attended the service at St Pauls to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Battle Of Britain.

Jeremy Corbyn has spoken about the contributions his parents made to the war effort.

My mum served as an air raid warden and my dad in the Home Guard.
“Like that whole generation, they showed tremendous courage and determination to defeat fascism. The heroism of the Royal Air Force in the Battle of Britain is something to which we all owe an enormous debt of gratitude.
“The loss of life - both civilian and military - should be commemorated so that we both honour their lives and do all that we can to ensure future generations are spared the horrors of war.”
