Mr Murphy was frustrated at Labour's recent Brexit policy u-turn and shouted "Respect the vote" as he egged the Great Leader. Corbyn appeared at the hearing and laid it on thick saying: "The assault was completely unprovoked and threatening". Apparently poor Jezza was left with a 'red mark'.
Diane Abbott was not at the hearing, despite being a witness and her previous assertion that Corbyn was 'punched'. The word 'punch' was not mentioned during today's hearing, as we all know you cannot egg someone and punch them simultaneously with the same hand!
If sentencing and punishment is consistent then Murphy will be out in two weeks. We'll leave the final word up to Diane...
