Jeremy Corbyn not amused as he is ribbed in Commons: Smile Jeremy, it won't kill you!'

Jeremy Corbyn sat stony-faced today as he was compared to Old Marley 'chained and regretful' in a light-hearted Commons debate.

The Labour leader - who was put to the sword in last week's election - did not see the funny side as he was ribbed by Tracey Crouch during the Queen's Speech exchanges.

The speeches by backbenchers after the State Opening are by convention humourous and gently ridicule front benchers.

Former Sports minister Ms Crouch was chosen to open the debate this afternoon, and caused widespread laughter by likening politicians to characters from the Charles Dickens classic.
