The new Labour leader told the Church Times on 18 September, that although his immediate family had a Christian background, he has a “Jewish element” in his background.
However, he said “first impressions” of a new leader were decisive and although Mr Corbyn had made it clear “what he is against, I am not sure what he is for”.
Corbyn was elected Labour leader on Saturday with 59.5% of the vote. “What has been particularly disgusting is the way so numerous career, right-wing politicians that came into Labour in the past 20 years are demonstrating contempt for party democracy”, Mr Stein added, referring to the attacks coming from inside the party.

The Prime Minister replied: “There are problems in some mental health services and it’s right that we make that commitment”.
“When other people might have shied away from helping, he didn’t, and he’s been a very reliable Member of Parliament”.
