Election: Boris Johnson mocks Corbyn at manifesto launch
Boris Johnson made a massive jibe at Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn for his Brexit plan and neutral stance on the EU issue. Mr Johnson questioned whether anyone in the Labour Party was behind the party's Brexit plan and would, in turn, support their newly negotiated Brexit deal if they were in power. Mr Johnson, speaking in Telford said: "On Labour, they will plainly give in to Nicola Sturgeon and waste the whole of next year on two new referendums, one on Scotland and another in the EU.
"But Jeremy Corbyn won't tell us whether he would even be willing to advise people to vote in favour of his own deal."
He then joked: "He used to be indecisive... now he's not so sure!"
The room then erupted in loud laughter before breaking into applause.
He then continued to criticise the Labour leader insisting that a Jeremy Corbyn Premiership would lead to more dither and delay.
Mr Johnson continued: “Do we want that kind of leadership?
“Do we want more delay, more dither and drift and deadlock.
“Do we want 2020 to be another year of defeatism and despair.
“No, we don’t we want to move forward because this country has an incredible future.”

The Prime Minister also took aim at the Labour Party for their spending promises and tax commitments.
He said: "I'm sorry to say that I've seen some of the spending commitments that I have seen from Mr Corbyn and the Labour Party.
"I'm sure they staggered even some of his most left-wing supporters.
"They would put up spending to 1.2 trillion pounds.
"You would have a tax bill for every person in the country.
"What I think people need to understand is that at this crucial moment we are able to make big investments in our infrastructure and make big commitments.
"This is because we have got interest rates low.
"So when the markets look at the commitments of the scale that Labour is making I am afraid they will mark us down.
"They will say that your country can't have interest rates that low and that will mean that the mortgages go up in addition to people's tax burden."
