McDonnell: I would pull Mao stunt again

John McDonnell has defended his decision to quote Chairman Mao in his Spending Review response, and insisted that the stunt was a joke.

He brandished a copy of the Chinese Communist leader's Little Red Book after claiming UK assets were being sold to the Chinese.

The shadow chancellor has said he would repeat his Mao little red book stunt.
