Woman 'behind first question': Tories 'like bunnies for the pot'

Jeremy Corbyn delivers his first questions at PMQs.

A woman who claims she submitted the first question read out by Jeremy Corbyn during Prime Minister's Questions says the Conservative front bench looked like "bunnies... for the pot".

The woman from south-west London, who called into LBC claiming to be Marie, said she was behind the question about the UK's "chronic" housing shortage.

She told the radio station: "I liked the way he [Mr Corbyn] looked at him over the top of his glasses, I thought that worked very well and it was very calm.

"The Prime Minister had to change his way of doing things for Corbyn, so surely that's a massive mark-up for Corbyn to begin with?

"And the front bench Conservative Party did not look happy bunnies today. They looked as if they had just been told they were for the pot.

"They really didn't look happy at all. And that's good. And I hope that continues every single week."
