UK Labour split on Syria air strikes

Britain's new opposition Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn, , a veteran anti-war campaigner, faces a revolt over air strikes on Syria, nine days after the left-winger was elected on a platform that opposed military intervention in the region. Half of Corbyn's top team of ministers-in-waiting were prepared to back a call from Prime Minister David Cameron to sanction bombing against Islamic State (ISIS) militants in Syria, the Sunday Times said.
