The Labour leader said he was “going through the process” of eating more vegan food after decades of being a vegetarian because it is improving in quality. Corbyn made the comments when asked whether he would ever make the jump to veganism at an event hosted by Lush cosmetics. I eat more and more vegan food, and have more and more vegan friends, indeed there are quite a lot of vegan MPs actually – not a lot but there are some. I think what has improved so much is vegetarian and vegan food has got so much better in recent years. I won’t go any further than that.”Labour said the comments should only be taken to mean that he is eating more vegan food and not that he is adopting a completely new diet.
