27 EU leaders meet without Britain for first timeCorbyn faces leadership challenge after 172 MPs fail to back himStephen Crabb confirms he will stand for Tory leadership with Sajid JavidNicola Sturgeon in Brussels for meeting with Juncker 7.30am BST Margaret Beckett – formerly an acting leader of the Labour party – is in tears on the Today programme as she explains why she thinks Jeremy Corbyn needs to stand down.She praises his integrity and principles – “but they don’t of themselves make you a leader”.He has no experience at all of the problems of leadership … the hassle, the scrutiny, the compromises you have to make to get to the best common ground.Jeremy has brought on a whole new raft of talent … and they have gone because they felt they could no longer deal with the situation in which they found themselves.I’m afraid the people in the leader’s office act like a separate unit from the Labour party … There are people around Jeremy who are prepared to see the Labour party split rather than for him to go.The Labour party has to survive … because we need an alternative government.
