THE military sent Jeremy Corbyn a “warning” during his bid to become prime minister and intelligence services deliberately undermined him, the former Labour leader said in an interview with Declassified UK.

Mr Corbyn spoke to the publication about actions taken by government institutions, senior officials, politicians and parts of the media to damage his chances of becoming PM.

A week after Mr Corbyn was elected Labour leader in 2015, the Sunday Times ran a story quoting a “senior serving general” who said the military would take “direct action” if he was elected.
