In an exclusive blog for HuffPost UK, the actor and comedian said the Labour leader “has the qualities I want in a strong and stable leader”.
Brand is one of a string of celebrities to back Corbyn, who earlier on Wednesday announced he would take part in the televised BBC election debate in Cambridge.

“Have you seen that footage of House of Commons? They’re all neeky dons! The way they all laugh and cheer. Is this fucking Game Of Thrones? You lot have got real issues to talk about and deal with.
