Jeremy Corbyn on the IRA and immigration: Full interview on

Jeremy Corbyn has told Sky's Sophy Ridge that he wants 'fair' immigration if Labour win the election but he wouldn't be drawn on a precise number despite being asked five times.
During the interview Mr Corbyn was also asked to clarify his perceived support for the IRA back in the 1980s. Watch the full interview.

[@IThinkItsForYou]

Amazing how this guy puts up with being put on trial and doesn't break

[@br4975]

He's getting more and more statesmanlike as time has gone by The flak he's received has been ridiuclous

[@PsychosisFire]

That's how strong he is. He was democratically elected twice in a row, and despite attacks from the Tories, the mainstream press and members of his own party, he has refused to let the people who voted for him down. Compare that to Cameron, who jumped ship as soon as Brexit happened, or Miliband, who left as soon as Labour lost in 2015. The argument that he's "weak, ineffectual and wouldn't make a strong leader" is absolute horseshit. He's one of the strongest, most incorruptible politicians of the day.

The IRA were a terrorist group, but speaking to them was absolutely necessary for peace in Northern Ireland.

[@mc-le9ez]

But not to condemn them .Is that to much to expect from a MP. Remember..... if it looks to good to be true then it probably is.

[@BenjL]

+Mickrick E Oh absolutely, the loyalist militia were terrorists, just like the IRA and British Army committed war crimes in my opinion, comparable to those idiot Americans in the middle east.

[@grime_garage]

BenjL So your opinion is that the iRA was a terrorist group for wanting there country back. So does this mean england is a terrorist country for illegally invading iraq

[@leeakers1370]

mc 007 He condemned all bombings that took place from all sides. Everyone making this all about the ira’s action forget that the loyalists killed many too, as he rightly points out.

[@andrewshepherd1579]

The British Parachute regiment were also a terrorist organisation. They shot and killed scores of unarmed innocent people on a number of occasions.

[@kavabean]

I don't understand why Labour doesn't explicitly calculate the state profit/gain from building council housing and moving housing benefit claimants from private landlord housing to council housing. They can easily pay for removing lock on in work benefits by taking the that profit/gain from housing and using it to pay for the increased in-work benefits costs.

[@matthewking5612]

He's a politician, it's her job to grill him!!

[@portaccio]

He can't condemn the IRA because he could be the prime minister which includes the still very fragile situation in Northern Ireland and that cannot help anyone involved. He has condemned violence on all sides which is right and proper. He cannot take sides still. Keep your friends close but your enemies closer.

[@tomfarron425]

It's pretty easy to condemn the ira and he couldn't do it.

[@naveed210]

It’s far easier to condemn Israel, who’ve committed far worse crimes on a people consider lesser by the racist British establishment, yet the only British leader with backbone over the last 20-30 years to speak out against them was Corbyn. Let me guess, he’s antisemetic for doing so? 🤔

[@calkane8480]

Naveed Munir Very true, still couldn’t condemn the IRA though.

[@naveed210]

cal kane rather than being worried about a group which no longer poses a threat, how about your concern is lent to those suffering at the hands of Governments committing far worse atrocities today with the full backing of the British establishment. What’s next, “but he said Hamas were his friends.” 😴🤫 Ironically if tensions were to rise in Ireland again, that wouldn’t have anything to do with Brexit would it? 🤔

[@wheway33]

well yes, but im pretty sure thats what he was saying with a facetious undertone aimed at the interviewer.

[@infrasleep]

The problem is that Corbyn only listened to the IRA , Hamas and any terrorist group who shared his hatreds. He never spoke to loyalist terrorists, never spoke to Israeli's , got arrested at an IRA trial he called a "Show trial" (he never did that at a loyalist terror trial) and he only shared platforms and rallies with terror groups and racists he AGREED with. It would have done Corbyn good to listen to people HE didn't agree with, but he never ever did. The man is a phoney. A pathetic excuse for a human being. And to cap it all, Adams and McGuiness said Corbyn had nothing to do with the peace settlement, and others such as Hulme said he was a hindrance. He is an infantile politician who thought it was "Cool and Edgy" to support the IRA and any terrorist who was anti UK (particularly England) anti Jew and anti West. No use to anyone.

[@ivorbiggun710]

Well, he didn't listen to the working class in the North. Now he's a has-been (well, more a never-was) but he just hangs around like a bad smell. He's like the bloke at the party who hasn't pulled when everyone else has and insists on talking to them.

Corbyn hasn't done the maths. He'd have borrowed and borrowed and he'd have created inflation by printing money. He's an ideological idiot with absolutely no actually experience of economics. He'd have increased the taxes on people already paying 50% tax when they only make up 5% of the tax payers. He'd have raised far less than he was borrowing, by taxing those that actually stimulate growth simply to gather more votes from people that have as much grasp on economics than he does.

[@papadoc711]

The British public including the British media don't understand the conflict here in Ireland. We have made tremendous strides here in the north of Ireland through cross community relations. Were the IRA a terrorist organization, of course they were they used methods of violence in order to achieve there aims, but I as an Irish republican don't condemn the organisation, I will condemn many of their bombings where innocents were killed. However to my community the British army and the loyalist paramilitary groups which the state supplied information to were also terrorists as well, lets not forget groups like the military reaction force, a state funded death squad. Both sides killed innocent people, that's what happens in a war, lets not abuse them, by using them, as a simple talking point to attack the character of someone running as the leader for everyone of this united kingdom, I wonder if they'll do the same to Theresa May?

Or the soldier who shot 15yr old Daniel Hegarty twice in the head when he only left his house to look at the Army tanks involved in Operation Motorman, and the soldiers involved in that Operation held a Reunion Party last weekend.

The first question was good, well balanced. The point about the single market can mean freedom of movement. That was a good pushback as there are countries who are not in the EU and have freedom of movement. Corbyn probably could have said that the difference is that we are not landlocked. - Although I didn't see Sky News say anything about that in terms of the Brexit debate, meaning we have more control than most other EU countries even as a member of the EU. I love how Sophy didn't seem to be listening on the answer on immigration. He even said that if we need external labour, immigration goes up. If we don't need external labour, it goes down. She still says, "does it go up or down?" Also, Sky News only has one source and doesn't fight for the credibility of Andrew Roth. Also, I don't understand why Sky News (with all of their resources) have to ask single 'gotcha' questions and they have to be yes or no. Even when answers have been given explaining the situation where there is not a categoric yes or no.

People need to know that it will be reduced. 250,000+ NET migration a year is unsustainable. Corbyn is great in many ways but sadly out of touch on this issue. He cites the example of wanting to get all the engineers the economy needs, but half of all young people for the past 20 years have gone to university, and many of them study science and engineering, and that's not a job ticket.
