Green Party co-leader 'asked Jeremy Corbyn to urge supporters to halt bullying'


The Labour leader faced pleas to condemn Labour activists who, it was said, were launching online attacks against Green Party backers. The Green Party still hoped to convince Mr Corbyn to strike a deal so anti-Tory parties could work together to deny Boris Johnson victory. But talks never got off the ground - and Green co-leader Sian Berry confronted the Labour leader when, she said, her party’s activists were subjected to web-based abuse.
