Big Mouth Strikes Again

Re: Big Mouth Strikes Again

So in the space of a few posts, in a thread where the former leader of the opposition failed to call Hamas a terrorist group, we have basically concluded that the media was bad and we have Sludge and Bob moaning about right-wing things.

Not the person who can't even criticise Hamas (the ones who killed 1200 last month) when asked 15 times..but it's the media's fault for asking him.

Honestly, what a rabbit hole..

I didn’t mention a thing about Hamas, just that there will be those contracted to GB News andTalk TV who do not think the current Government is right wing enough - if you didn’t know what my politics are, there’s nothing in that to indicate what I think about those two channels.

As for as Corbyn and Hamas is concerned, I’ve not seen the interview, but if he really is unprepared to callHamas terrorists, then I think that’s wrong.

You should watch it. It's an entertaining few minutes if nothing else - link at the top of the thread.

Re: Big Mouth Strikes Again

It's an embarrassing watch. Most politicians would have come up with a string of weasel words to avoid answering the question directly but poor old Jeremy couldn't even do that.

Do would-be politicians have to pass an examination to get a "how not to answer a question whilst appearing to have answered it" qualification?

It distasteful but it’s law and however nefarious and distasteful it appears, this government has just spunked over £140 million on the failed appeal on their Rwanda bill.

It is an embarrassing watch - completely agree.

I sort of understand what he wanted to say about the conflict, why he didn't want to play the 'condemnation game' (it only goes one way) and why he maybe wanted to explain the background and complexity of Hamas (the social, educational, health and administrative parts of a big organisation that goes way beyond the armed men). But not there, and not with Piers Morgan.

Corbyn's judgement is often poor in situations like that. He is naive and non-confrontational - thinks the power of argument will see him through - and he gets eaten alive! All he managed to do was feed the red tops, energise the right, and confuse and demoralise the Palestine solidarity movement. Not his finest moment.

Re: Big Mouth Strikes Again

I see piers morgan with his usual standard of chat tonight with Corbyn . never liked him as a so called tv pundit . Only come up on twitter but does anyone watch his show on a regular basis ?

Piers Morgan asks Jeremy Corbyn 15 times whether the former Labour leader thinks Hamas is a terror group.

Corbyns a likeable nutter IMO, Morgan is a Vax pushing Kunt.

Jeremy Corbyn has described Hamas as a “terrorist group” in a magazine article after repeatedly refusing to use the term in a television interview earlier this week.

The former Labour leader has written an article accusing the Israeli army of being guilty of “acts of terror too”, arguing that the comparison was necessary because Israel had killed thousands of children in strikes on Gaza in retaliation for Hamas’s attacks.

His opinion piece in the leftwing Tribune magazine comes a day after the leader of the opposition, Keir Starmer, said Corbyn’s “days as a Labour MP” were over after the MP had repeatedly declined to call Hamas a terrorist organisation in an interview with Piers Morgan.

Corbyn wrote that he “deplore[d] the targeting of all civilians”, including Hamas’s killing of about 1,200 people in Israel on 7 October.

The MP for Islington North added: “If we understand terrorism to describe the indiscriminate killing of civilians, in breach of international law, then of course Hamas is a terrorist group.

“The targeting of hospitals, refugee camps and so-called safe zones by the Israeli army are acts of terror too; and the killing of more than 11,000 people, half of whom are children, cannot possibly be understood as acts of self-defence.

“We should not entertain questions from those who have no interest in applying this basic consistency.”
