Best

Jeremy Corbyn’s climate change plans for a Green Industrial Revolution were well received by the audience.

He told Question Time that a Labour government on the international stage would work with others to get to net-zero carbon emissions – but did not specify a date.

Worst

Audience members groaned as Mr Corbyn failed to say whether he would support Leave or Remain in a second referendum, instead saying he would adopt a neutral position.

The Labour leader also faced tough lines of questioning on his nationalisation plans, socialist policies and record on handling anti-Semitism in the party, with one audience member asking if “businesses should be frightened of an incoming Labour government”.
