Shame you find it so tiresome, Jeremy

-

EXTRACTS from the TV interview with an eye-rolling Jeremy Corbyn yesterday:

REPORTER: ‘So did you lay that wreath on those graves or by those graves?’

CORBYN: ‘I, along with other colleagues ... laid a wreath in memory of all those who have died in the hope that we have a peace process and peace in the future.’ REPORTER: ‘So to be clear...’

CORBYN: ‘I’m totally clear, I’m totally clear, that the way forward is of peace...’ REPORTER: ‘So you did lay a wreath?’

CORBYN: ‘In memory of all those that died in the 19 5 Israeli attack, which as I’ve repeated now again, was condemned by the UN Security Council and the UK government and the US government.’

REPORTER: ‘But was that wreath not laid by the graves of those who were killed in the Mossad strike in Paris in 92?’

CORBYN: ‘It was laid on the grave of all those who died. I totally condemned what happened in Munich in 1972. I condemn all killing.’

REPORTER: ‘You said yesterday you “didn’t think” you took part in the wreath laying but you’re

now saying you were part of the wreath laying?’

CORBYN: ‘I was there when the wreaths were laid. That’s pretty obvious...’ REPORTER: ‘Did you lay the wreath?’

CORBYN: ‘I laid one along with many other people in memory of all who died in the awful attack in 19 5, which I keep repeating ... was condemned by the whole world.’

REPORTER: ‘[Labour MP] Luciana Berger wants an apology for you being there.’ CORBYN: ‘I’m not apologisin­g for being there at all.’
