Jonathan
Arnott questioned “why on earth” working class voters would opt for the Labour
party under its current leader
instead of Ukip.
The
politician said recent polls signalled his party was in the running to add
multiple MPs to the House of Commons after its only MP Douglas Carswell quit the
party last month.
He
told talkRADIO: “They only need something like a 4 per
cent swing from Labour to Ukip to take the Hartlepool seat and the Conservatives
are a long way behind.
“So
seeing how unpopular Jeremy Corbyn has been with the Labour party and frankly if
you’re a working class voter why on earth would you be considering voting for a
Labour party under Jeremy Corbyn is
beyond me. Express.
