Labour leadership deadline ends as party prepares to elect new leader

The Labour Party is preparing to elect its next leader after thousands of new members signed up to vote.

Candidates had urged supporters to sign up and the deadline, which has now passed, was extended after "technical issues" with the website.

About 1,200 people have been banned from joining in recent weeks, because they support rival parties - and today a fourth Labour MP called for the leadership process to be suspended, as Ben Wright reports.
