Channel 4 journalist Matt Spencer tweeted a video of the cameraman receiving treatment, writing: “Jeremy Corbyn was in the car as the tyre ran over this man’s foot. He’s receiving medical treatment - Corbyn’s gone inside.”
Senior Labour figures are attending a ‘Clause V meeting’ in central London in order to finalize the party’s manifesto, after a draft of the document was leaked to the press.
