JEREMY CORBYN has won the Sean MacBride Prize for his work in promoting peace, disarmament and human rights.

The Labour leader was chosen for the prestigious award, dedicated to the memory of peace campaigner Sean MacBride, a Nobel Peace Prize winner in 1974, along with Noam Chomsky and Japanese anti-military-base activists.

The International Peace Bureau commended Mr Corbyn for his “sustained and powerful political work for disarmament and peace.”
