VEGAN FLIP FLOP: Labour forced to deny Jeremy Corbyn diet switch in bizarre backtrack – Express.co.uk

Mr Corbyn has been a vegetarian for 50 years after working on a pork farm in his 20s, admitting in 2015 he grew attached to the pigs.

But after claiming at an eco-friendly event he was going through the process of substituting more of his diet to avoid animal products altogether, the party have been forced to deny he is making the switch to a vegan diet.

While it is unclear why Labour felt the need to speak out on Mr Corbyns dietary preferences, rumours of a shift towards veganism will not help the bearded party leader from shaking his image as a stereotypical left winger.

Speaking at the event, Mr Corbyn said: I eat more and more vegan food and have more and more vegan friends, indeed there are quite a lot of vegan MPs actually - not a lot but there are some.

I think what has improved so much is vegetarian and vegan food has got so much better in recent years.

One of my close relatives has just become a vegan and I went to her house for dinner and it was absolutely brilliant.

So I'm going through the process, all right? I won't go any further than that.

The party were quick to clarify his comment, stating claims their leader was considering the diet popularised by hippies of the 1960s were mischief.

Speaking to the Metro, a spokeswoman said: Jeremy Corbyn isnt turning vegan.

Theres been a bit of mischief in the reporting of what he said.

He actually meant that he is in the process of eating more vegan food. Thats all.

As Labour insiders scramble to ensure no one gets the wrong idea about Mr Corbyns dietary preferences, the party is on the verge of crisis over Brexit.

Party rebels have threatened to unleash a complete sh**storm on Parliament if Jeremy Corbyn agrees to a deal with Theresa May to stop his MPs from blocking Britains evacuation from the EU.

The Labour leader has been warned by MPs not to do a grubby deal with the Tories to limit the debate on the European Union withdrawal bill.

Parliament is expected to debate the bill when politicians return to Commons tomorrow after the summer break.

The embattled leader has come under fierce pressure from former leadership contender Chuka Umunna, who wants the Islington North MP to oppose the plan when Commons votes on it next week.

A friend of Mr Umunna said last night: There cannot be some sort of grubby deal with the Tories over this.

There will be a complete sh**storm if he agrees to guillotine the debate.
