LONDON — A BBC cameraman was whisked off to hospital today after his foot was run over by Jeremy Corbyn’s car.
The Labour leader was arriving at Labour HQ to sign off his party’s manifesto, which had already been leaked to two newspapers.
This is the BBC cameraman shortly after he was run over by Corbyn’s car:
He was later whisked off to hospital via a back entrance to the building.
The incident capped off a chaotic morning as the Labour leaders’ allies rowed over the source of the leak of Labour’s general election manifesto.
Following the leak, Corbyn pulled out of his own campaign poster launch.
