Socialism may not be Jeremy Corbyn’s only religion: my slack-jawed snouts spied him taking Holy Communion. Refusing to “do God” is the sole leadership trait that he shares with Tony Blair. Brother Jeremy has maintained that it’s “a private thing” when quizzed about his personal beliefs. The common assumption that he is an atheist or agnostic may need reviewing, after Corbyn was observed accepting what left-footers in the pews of the Sacred Heart in Kilburn, north London, called “the full biscuit” from the Catholic church’s priest.
Corbyn queued for his blessed wafer alongside his wife, Laura Alvarez, who hails from the predominantly Catholic Mexico, at the funeral of the GMB union president, Mary Turner. We think we know the answer to the age-old question about the Pope, but could Corbyn also be a Catholic?
