FORMER Labour Party deputy leader John Prescott has hit out at backbenchers who criticised Jeremy Corbyn over Venezuela for having never spoken about the country in Parliament.
Mr Prescott shared a tweet on Monday night exposing three Labour MPs from the newly formed all-party parliamentary group (APPG) on Venezuela for their previous lack of interest in the South American country.
He asked: “What do MPs Graham Jones, Angela Smith and John Spellar have in common? Hate Corbyn. Joined new APPG on Venezuela. Never raised Venezuela in House.”

The global left must be unwavering in it is support for Venezuela as Washington increases its aggression, and clear-eyed about the West’s cynical motives for targeting it, says CLAUDIA WEBBE
