Social media users have reacted angrily or with bemusement after Eamonn Holmes conducted a cringe-worthy interview with Jeremy Corbyn.

Holmes immediately came under fire from critics on Twitter who accused him of dumbing down political debate.
The new leader of the Labour party batted away with a number of questions, and was left bemused at some of the interjections made by Holmes in the uncomfortable interview.
