Watch our Labour leadership debate on iPlayer

Another chance to see our Labour leadership hustings.

By George Eaton

If you missed our Labour leadership debate in June, or if you’d like to see it again, you can now watch a high-quality recording of the event on the BBC iPlayer.

The hustings were notable for being the first to take place after nominations had closed and was held on the day that Diane Abbott (who received an extraordinary reception) made it on to the ballot paper in dramatic fashion.

The event also saw the first signs of tension between the Miliband brothers over the Iraq war and a heated exchange between Ed Miliband and Ed Balls on their days at the Treasury. Watch the full 110 minutes to see these moments and more.
