Skinner is a staunch socialist and supporter of Jeremy Corbyn, who’s gained a reputation in the House of Commons for his scathing anti-Tory putdowns (his “dodgy Dave” jibe at David Cameron is particularly memorable). Skinner is set to become Father of the House (i.e. the longest-serving MP), if he retains his seat in December.
