Simon Danczuk, Labour MP, describes last night's meeting of the parliamentary Labour Party with new leader Jeremy Corbyn. He says it was quite "subdued", with no banging of the tables - but he was received "politely". But it soon turned "fairly sombre", he added.

The rate of Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation fell to 0% in August from 0.1% in July, according to official figures just published by the Office for National Statistics. The rate of Retail Price Index (RPI) inflation rose to 1.1% in August, from 1% in July.

Already Jeremy Corbyn's leadership has become "a Shakespearean epic", writes Steve Richards in the Independent. He says Corbyn is "being tested – but so too will those internal critics being feted by a media hostile to the new leadership". The political commentator says "if some Labour MPs carry on being disloyal towards their new leader, their predictions that a Corbyn-led Labour can't win the next election will become a self-fulfilling prophecy".

Jeremy Corbyn is to attend the TUC conference in Brighton today - in his first major policy speech as Labour leader. BBC assistant political editor Norman Smith says he can expect "a much warmer reception" than at last night's meeting of the parliamentary Labour Party, where he was peppered with questions from sceptical MPs about his stance on Syria, Europe, Trident, women, Labour moderates and so on. He says Mr Corbyn has been sending out "mixed messages" about whether he would campaign to stay in Europe - or to leave.

Discussing Jeremy Corbyn's rise from outsider to victor, Jim Waterson, deputy editor of Buzzfeed, says the left-wing MP's social media campaign played a key part in mobilising his supporters. It was largely people of their own accord choosing to share links and promote Corbyn-related news, he adds. He also thinks Mr Corbyn's "unblemished" 30-year record in Parliament "completely without contradiction" helped him, saying: "He's been consistent since 1983."

House of Commons
Parliament

Proceedings in the House of Commons kick off at 11:30 this morning, with business questions. We're expecting a statement from Northern Ireland Secretary Theresa Villiers on the stalled talks process at Stormont. After that, Tory backbencher Andrew Rosindell will propose a bill on United Kingdom Borders (Control and Sovereignty).

MPs then hold a second reading debate on the National Insurance Contributions Bill - which sets a ceiling on the percentages and the upper earnings limit for National Insurance Contributions.

But as parliamentary correspondent Mark D'arcy notes "the really key vote will be the one which follows; on Tax Credits which implements the cuts signalled in the Budget". Responding to the debate will be an early test of the new shadow chancellor John McDonnell - whose appointment by Jeremy Corbyn has ruffled many feathers among Labour MPs.

Jeremy Corbyn, the new leader of the opposition, has been Islington North MP for 32 years.

A look through the early press archives shows that his most predictable trait as MP of the north London constituency was to do the unpredictable.

Opinions on his style of dress have never been far away, either.

The first half of his tenure tells of a man sympathetic to controversial causes; of rebellion; and even of the gift of an organic marrow.

The new-look Labour leadership has continued to dominate the newspaper front pages today - but there aren't many positive headlines for Jeremy Corbyn and his team.

The Guardian says he "faced a grilling", external from his MPs after "a day of policy confusion and a sometimes chaotic shadow cabinet reshuffle", while the Financial Times describes "turmoil", external within the party, notably over the appointment of "hardline socialist" John McDonnell as shadow chancellor.

Trade unions - of which several supported Mr Corbyn's leadership campaign - joined the criticism of Mr McDonnell's appointment, according to the Times., external The Metro reports unrest over a lack of diversity, describing the shadow cabinet as "male and pale" - despite women accounting for half the appointments.

Following uncertainty about whether Jeremy Corbyn would countenance campaigning to leave the EU when the in/out referendum comes, Mr Field says he doesn't know what the new Labour leader would do.

Speaking personally, Mr Field says "it's not impossible" he could campaign for a British exit. Those who will decide the outcome of the poll are people, "like me", who want to stay but who also want "serious renegotiation" of the UK's terms of membership - but he says the PM hasn't been forthcoming on the detail.

Jeremy Corbyn's position, "which is sceptical on Europe", may put him more in touch on public opinion than some of his other statements, he adds.

Frank Field, MP for Birkhenhead, says there is public appetite for some welfare reforms - such as a benefit cap - "but none of them has said that people going to work should be punished this way". He predicts it won't go down well with Conservative MPs' constituents and there'll be "uproar" on the government backbenches.

Later today, MPs will debate proposed changes to tax credits - first introduced by Gordon Brown to help people on very low wages. Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has vowed to fight any cuts to the welfare budget.  

Frank Field, Labour chairman of the Work and Pensions Committee, says if Chancellor George Osborne presses ahead with the plans it "blows up" the image of the Conservatives being the party of the "strivers". He says three million people will be worse off by at least £1,200 a year.

"This is the second extraordinary error for this highly political chancellor to have made," he adds - as he also criticises his national living wage strategy.

In case you missed this last night, here's the team photo of Jeremy Corbyn and his ministerial team sat around his very green shadow cabinet table,

Controversial plans to tighten rules on trade union strike ballots in Britain have passed their first Commons hurdle despite fierce Labour criticism.

MPs backed the Trade Union Bill, external, which proposes higher voting thresholds for ballots, by 33 votes at second reading.

Business Secretary Sajid Javid said the bill was "not a declaration of war" against unions but necessary to stop "endless" threats of industrial action.

Labour said the bill was "draconian and counter-productive".

New Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn and his shadow chancellor John McDonnell were present on his party's frontbench for the first time as MPs debated the proposals for the first time at the bill's second reading.

If you missed all the announcements yesterday - here's our at-a-glance guide to all the shadow cabinet members with a guide to what their likely policy focus will be.

Hello and welcome to what is the new Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn's third full day in the job. He now has his full shadow cabinet line-up finalised but there's little chance of a honeymoon period - he faced quite a grilling from his own side's MPs last night by all accounts.
