Civil war in Labour Party 'inevitable' after Corbyn win

Civil war within the Labour Party is inevitable following Jeremy Corbyn's election as leader, a former Foreign Office minister has said.

Kim Howells said Labour must reconcile its differences to have a chance of winning the 2020 general election.

Despite Mr Corbyn's landslide win, Mr Howells said winning the votes of the wider electorate is a different matter.

Welsh Labour said: "The party is united in our aim to deliver another Labour government in Wales next year."

BBC Wales' political editor Nick Servini reports.
