Jezza's Empty Chair
Corbyn called hosting in parliament his "friends" from Hamas and Hezbullah "my pleasure and my honour". Tonight, with the country in crisis, he stormed out of the meeting with British MPs. pic.twitter.com/O50BewC8JY— Roh Yakobi (@Roh_Yakobi) March 20, 2019
Jeremy Corbyn walked out of a cross party meeting in Westminster last night to discuss the political crisis facing the country over Brexit.
The reason for the Labour leader's petulant display was the presence of fellow MPs from The Independent Group (TIG) who have resigned the Labour and Conservative whip.
Yet here is Jeremy playing host to a political meeting with representatives of Hamas and Hezbollah in the House of Commons on the basis that it is important to sit down and talk to people with whom you may profoundly disagree.
