The Labour Party is hitting back hard against a London Times article highlighting concerns of unnamed civil servants that party Leader Jeremy Corbyn, 70, is "too frail" to be prime minister, and is "losing his memory," relying on others around him to make decisions.
A party spokesman struck back at the claims, saying, "Jeremy Corbyn leads an active life, running and cycling regularly, and is in good health. Reports to the contrary are scurrilous and a transparent attempt to undermine Labour's efforts to redistribute wealth and power from the few to the many." It's unclear whether the attack came from those in the civil service sympathetic to the Conservative Party, or whether it originated within the Labour Party's own ranks.
In June, 2016, Corbyn faced, and survived, a full-scale revolt against his leadership (and leadership style) when 11 members of his Shadow Cabinet resigned at once.
