London rally for ‘game-changer’ Greece election

LABOUR MP Jeremy Corbyn labelled Syiza’s Greek election victory a “game-changer” yesterday as thousands rallied across Europe in support of their anti-austerity plans.

He was among a number of MPs and trade unionists who joined in a show of solidarity with Greece’s new left-wing government after it came under severe attack from the European Central Bank and the European Commission last week.

London’s Trafalgar Square was the scene of passionate speeches including Labour firebrand Mr Corbyn and journalist Owen Jones.
