Jeremy Corbyn responds to Tony Blair I dont do personal abuse

Labour leadership hopeful Jeremy Corbyn has said critics who have resorted to personal abuse and attacks on his character are "nervous about the power of democracy". He attacked the "politics of celebrity" on the day that former prime minister Tony Blair warned Mr Corbyn's supporters are driving Labour towards "annihilation", and leadership rival Yvette Cooper said he is offering "old solutions to old problems". North Islington MP Mr Corbyn said Labour is paying the price for Mr Blair's decision to go to war in Iraq, and pledged never to go to war "on behalf of whatever capricious US president happens to be in office at that time".
