  2. 'Adult politics'

    BBC Breakfast

    More on the question of the "old" Richard Heller passage in the speech:

    It's not copying anybody's homework. All of us research things. All of us resource things. All of us learn from each other. Is that such a bad thing? If someone says something good and interesting and you understand and agree with it and use it as part of a persuasive argument - I think that's adult politics."

  3. Corbyn on the 'borrowed words'

    Jeremy Corbyn

    Asked about the passage in his speech which, it has emerged, came from a blog by speechwriter Richard Heller, Mr Cobyrn said: 

    There were 5,000 words or more in my speech. There were 350 words sent to me by Richard Heller. I have known him for many years. I quite liked those words, I liked the way he put them... it was a message I wanted to put forward. It's quite disappointing really that some people are obsessed almost with these 350 words - there were quite a lot of other words in the speech."

  4. The missing issues?

    BBC Breakfast

    "What I was trying to set out yesterday was the philosophy I am putting forward.. the challenge on housing, the challenge on education and the challenge on the health service," says Jeremy Corbyn after being asked why he did not mention the deficit in his speech.
