This is what musicians think of Jeremy Corbyn

Stars' thoughts on the new Labour leader, from Bombay Bicycle Club to Paloma Faith

Enter Shikari's Rou Reynolds: "Jeremy Corbyn, one of the only politicians I�ve ever believed in has just won Labour Leadership against ALL odds. This is it. Bloody hell I�m actually tearful."

Paloma Faith: "Inspiring speech from Jeremy Corbyn today about the future of Britain. Very hard not to be moved by such hope."

Savages' Fay Milton: "FUCKKKK YESSSSSSS #JeremyCorbyn #JezWeCan."

Charlotte Church: "Jez he did! Finally a political movement in the UK that's about humanity and inclusion. #I'mCorbynupsoyoubettergetthispartystarted!"

Bombay Bicycle Club's Jamie MacColl: "Ah, white men appointed to the most important positions in the shadow cabinet. Surprise surprise."

Hookworms' MJ: "This week I recorded Mike Watt at my studio, and now a Marxist animal rights activist is leader of the Labour Party. When do I wake up?"

Primal Scream: "RIGHT ON JEREMY CORBYN"

East India Youth: "I bet Jeremy Corbyn had a cracking roast today. Probably thought 'fuck it' and had a beer too."

Django Django: "It is important that, if the United Kingdom sticks together, it finds its left-wing voice again. I would rather the UK stayed the UK and became a socialist country."

Edwyn Collins: "Jeremy Corbyn? Good guy, I think, fact!!"

Grace Petrie: "Jeremy bloody Corbyn....Knock me down with a feather. Tomorrow five years of very hard work starts. We're a big team though. Goodnight pals"

Spector's Fred Macpherson: "A spectre is haunting Europe - the spectre of Corbynism. Onward"

Kwabs: "Yes Jeremy Corbyn!"

Sleaford Mods' Jason Williamson: "I�ve not looked into a lot of the stuff he�s been talking about but it reeks of compassion and that�s what you want."

Billy Bragg: "Congrats to Jeremy Corbyn on winning by landslide. Future of Labour Party now lies in the hands of the disgruntled Blairites because the lesson from the 80s is not that Labour loses when it moves left, but that it loses when it splits #NoSDP"

This Saturday (12 September), Jeremy Corbyn won the race to become leader of the Labour Party by a landslide. That's right - after decades of New Labour, an unapologetically left wing politician, whom MJ from Hookworms describes as a "Marxist animal rights activist", is now leading the opposition.

Whatever side you're on, it's a fairly momentous event in the world of politics - and it's something that hasn't gone unnoticed by the world of music. The likes of Bombay Bicycle Club, Paloma Faith, Django Django and Primal Scream have voiced their opinion on the news. Not everyone is thrilled.

Here's what musicians think of Labour's new leader, Jeremy Corbyn.
