Rosa Prince: Corbyn 'has a fascinating back story'
There is a new biography about Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, which is being serialised in The Daily Telegraph.
Rosa Prince, author of Comrade Corbyn, told the Daily Politics she had not known Mr Corbyn well before writing the book, but she learned he has "a fascinating back story".
"I came away thinking that he's a very good man, a very decent man," she told Jo Coburn.
Ms Prince also said she thought the Labour leader was beginning to enjoy his new role.
She was joined by guests of the day Liberal Democrat MP Norman Lamb, Labour's Matthew Pennycook and Conservative MP Anne-Marie Trevelyan for the discussion.
