People need to see 'real Jeremy Corbyn'published at 11:21 British Summer Time 6 May 2017
John McDonnell tells LBC everyone in Labour was "really disappointed" with its local election performance but people have to brush themselves down and "get on with it".

In that vein, he says how frustrating it is that Theresa May has said no to taking part in TV leaders' debates.
"If they can have them in France, why can't we have it here?"
