Jeremy Corbyn was on Tuesday branded “disloyal” for refusing to sing the national anthem on a day of chaos which saw one of his shadow cabinet ministers threaten to resign over the European Union.

The new Labour leader faced heavy criticism for standing in silence while God Save the Queen was played during a Battle of Britain remembrance ceremony at St Paul’s Cathedral attended by the Prime Minister, Defence Secretary and scores of military leaders.

Former military commanders as well as Labour and Tory MPs said he was “dishonourable” for refusing to sing the national anthem.

Mr Corbyn later insisted that he “stood in respectful silence” during the remembrance ceremony.

Britain's Labour Party has become a joke with the election of this political pratt as its leader.

Apparently, he’s a radical republican and sees no value in that great lady who has ruled for so many years.

Branded.

Did they heat an iron in a fire and press it to his skin until it left a permanent mark?

If this guy was any farther to the left, he’d fall of the face of the Earth. Compared to him, Obama almost looks mainstream.

Remember the song “There Will Always Be An England”? There won’t be if he becomes the Prime Minister.
