The civil service has warned that the Labour leader may be forced to stand down because he is no longer up to the job “physically or mentally”, according to The Times. They have also revealed their concerns about him being “propped up” by his advisers as well as lacking knowledge on both foreign affairs and the domestic agenda. Speaking to The Times a senior civil servant said: “When does someone say he is too ill to carry on as leader of the Labour Party let alone Prime Minister?
“There must be senior people in the party who know that he is not functioning on all cylinders.”
Another said: “There is a real worry that the Labour leader isn’t up to the job physically or mentally but is being propped up by those around him.
“There’s growing concern that he’s too frail and is losing his memory. He’s not in charge of his own party.”
The party have said Mr Corbyn was in good health, taking part in both running and cycling regularly.
