I wonder if he can answer this one as well. Money again?

Jeremy Corbyn was paid by an Iranian state TV station that was complicit in the forced confession of a tortured journalist

Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn accepted up to £20,000 (about $27,000) for appearances on the Iranian state broadcast network Press TV — a channel that was banned in the UK for its part in filming the detention and torture of an Iranian journalist.

Corbyn is a progressive politician and a staunch defender of human rights. So his decision to appear on, and take money from, Press TV on multiple occasions is peculiar, even if he is not responsible for the network's output or its role in the Bahari episode. His appearances occurred when he was a rebellious backbencher with a much lower public profile.

A spokesperson for Corbyn told Business Insider, "We don't comment on historical matters."

Oh. Nice get out for everything then.

As we are going down the history route, should UK politics be more of the Edward Wood type? (Lord Halifax).

Don't need me, Corbyn and momentum have played the Times and Mail like a fiddle, hook line and sinker as they say. Corbyn up against elite and their smears, there is only one winner!

Not sure Boris or the wider Conservative party would agree with you-

All he's done is the same he's always done.

Won't comment on it, blames "the right wing press." That's it.

I bet if we were discussing anything else like, oh, Trump and links to Russia, you'd want answers.

That Corbyn photo.... data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Are they actually shorts or has he just pulled up his trouser legs?

I've never seen business trousers with detachable bottoms before, but then I've never seen kneecap length fitted shorts before either?

Did he put on the wrong shoes, or the wrong socks? data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

You'd think they'd learn by now. Every time the press try to smear Corbyn, it's the Tories who come out looking worse.

Shows the low confidence they have in themselves, if you go on the attack like that its normally for the purpose of deflection.
And Corbyn and Momemtum played the Times and Mail like a fiddle, it was like groundbaiting when fishing, sooner or later the Tories would start to bite on these articles, and whack the hook was set. Gavin Williamson called him traitor Ben Wallace suggested in another erahe would hang on these very articles,Mays more repsectful politics, well played Corbyn.
