Labour leadership: Jeremy Corbyn pays tribute to Miliband

Jeremy Corbyn has been elected as the new leader of the Labour Party after a three-month campaign.

The anti-austerity MP, who was seen an outsider when he first entered the race, beat former ministers Yvette Cooper and Andy Burnham and shadow minister Liz Kendall in the first round with 59.5% of the votes.

Mr Corbyn thanked Harriet Harman and Ed Miliband at the special conference, before addressing each of the other three candidates and joked that could form an Abba tribute act.

The new leader will face the prime minister at PMQs on Wednesday, before Parliament closes for three weeks for the party conference season.
