It is a Labour policy, and it had to be mentioned at some point, so why not during a continuous 24 hour news cycle that is focussed on asking questions about why it happened? Theresa May was also playing the Strong & Stable card and criticising Corbyn's views, so on balance he probably didn't want to do it, but had no choice as the event had already been politicised.
