Lord Sugar's Withering Take On Corbyn & Johnson

30 June 2016, 09:22 | Updated: 22 August 2016, 16:29

Lord Sugar gave withering assessments on Jeremy Corbyn and Boris Johnson as he spoke to LBC.

The Labour peer - and former Business Tsar - said he couldn't support his party while Mr Corbyn is in charge and insists that if he stays, the party will split forever.

Speaking to Nick Ferrari, he said of Corbyn: "He needs to take the hint. He's being so belligerent, tantamount to stupid.

"What point is he trying to make? What is he trying to prove? He being stubborn.

"Could you imagine him talking to Putin, to Merkel or to Obama. Absolutely not."

But he didn't stop at Mr Corbyn. The Apprentice star didn't mince his words as he discussed Boris as well.

He said: "Boris - this is a guy who got suspended on some cables wearing a Union Jack, kissing fish and all that stuff and you want him as your Prime Minister, talking to leaders of the world?

"I like Boris actually, I think he's done a great job as the Mayor of London, but he's gone off the rails.

"I don't know what's happened to him. He's gone nuts. Totally nuts.

"How can you have someone like that talking to other world leaders?"
