Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn apologised Sunday for his party's crushing defeat in the British general election but defended his campaign, which failed to resonate with the party's working-class base, as "one of hope rather than fear."
Corbyn, who has faced fierce criticism from within his own party in the aftermath of the electoral carnage, has said he will step down as Labour leader after a "period of reflection."
"And I'm proud that our message was one of hope, rather than fear."
