Jeremy Corbyn claims he’s a ‘proud Welshwoman’ in congratulatory tweet

It's all change in The Labour Party (again), as Jeremy Corbyn reshuffles the shadow cabinet he wants to help him take it to the Tories.

Now far be it from us to underplay the importance of having a strong opposition as we gear up for Brexit, but as far as we're concerned the biggest thing to come out of today's news was the newly re-elected leader's bombshell admission that he was - and literally nobody could have seen this one coming - a 'proud Welshwoman'. That's right. Jeremy Corbyn, the well-liked spearhead of Labour, is actually a woman from Wales. He definitely hasn't mentioned this before. But it's all there in writing. Corbyn took to Twitter early on Thursday morning to publicly congratulate Cardiff Central MP Jo Stevens on her appointment as shadow Welsh secretary on his new-look front-bench team. And that's when it happened. https://twitter.com/jeremycorbyn/status/784080956474925060 We've learnt a lot about Jeremy Corbyn in recent months: his general indifference to Pokemon Go, his eye for an Arsenal transfer and his apparent obliviousness to Ant and Dec being just a few earth-shattering revelations about the 67-year-old Islington North MP. But not once have we had him down as a proud Welshwoman. Here's how the internet reacted. https://twitter.com/AndyTaylor78/status/784081222964285440 https://twitter.com/WebSquirrel/status/784112721948209153 https://twitter.com/denzwashington1/status/784087312875548672 https://twitter.com/Jacksutcliffe88/status/784099022327861249 https://twitter.com/jwyattwilliams/status/784115160642416640 https://twitter.com/ryanjohnson1996/status/784114296330616832 Incredible stuff.
