Eagle vice chair: Why would I unite behind her?

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

Angela Eagle looks set to launch a bid for the Labour leadership after Jeremy Corbyn rejected pleas to stand down. The former shadow minister has been MP for Wallasey on Merseyside since 1992, but following her vote of no confidence in Corbyn and her resignation, a petition has been launched by her constituents. It states: "We wish Angela Eagle to resign as MP of Wallasey, as she does not represent our constituents views and our wishes. She should have supported Corbyn, not resigned. Keep Corbyn. Eagle Resign." Paul Davies, vice chair of Eagle's constituency party told Ritulah Shah what his message to her would be. (Photo: Angela Eagle. Credit: Getty Images)
