Gordon Brown: Labour needs a credible leader

Gordon Brown says the next Labour leader must be "credible" and "electable" in order to win back power.

The former prime minister said Labour must not become "a party of permanent protest".

Mr Brown said he is not attacking any individual candidate in the leadership race, but his comments have been interpreted as a thinly-veiled warning against Jeremy Corbyn.
