The Labour Leader, Jeremy Corbyn, clashed with a BBC journalist who attempted to ask a question about the Syrian crisis, while he was speaking at a small business event.

The BBC reporter, Mark Lobel, was in the process of trying to ask a question about the conflict with Corbyn, and last week’s chemical attack.

The audience, at the Fed of Small Businesses, booed the BBC hack, and appeared to want to concentrate on business issues.

Corbyn walked forward, in a forceful manner, and told Lobel: “I’m sorry – this is a Federation of Small Businesses conference. I’m very happy to do an interview with you afterwards about Syria. My media team have made that very clear to you.”

Mr Lobel replied: “That’s not what we’ve been told by your media team, but I’ll ask on business.”

The Labour leader then went onto attack big business and the various ways they side step paying taxes and avoided paying their fair share.

 

He said: “No one likes paying tax. We don’t wake up in the morning thinking ‘ooh, I must really pay some more tax today’.

“But most of us know taxes are essential to a civilised society and a successful economy.”

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
