Cycling legend and lifelong Labour supporter Sir Bradley Wiggins put a spoke in Jeremy Corbyn’s wheel when he heaped praise on Theresa May.
The five-time Olympic champion and Tour de France winner described the newly re-elected Labour leader as “a lovely fellow” and revealed he had once edited a programme with Mr Corbyn.
But Sir Bradley said: “I don’t agree with everything he is for – I think the world is changing at a fast pace
“What I will say is, my family has been historically Labour, my wife’s family has been historically Labour, I think Theresa has done a fantastic job of stabilising the country in the short term after the whole debacle in the summer.”
Sir Bradley, appearing on the BBC’s Andrew Marr programme, was not asked if he would go as far as to switch his vote to the Conservatives at future elections.
