Former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn refused to condemn Hamas at a left-wing event held outside the Labour Party conference.

Mr Corbyn said he did not “support any attacks”, but in a tetchy exchange with journalists declined to set out his view on Hamas despite being repeatedly asked whether he would condemn the group.

    I’m not obsessed with him, it’s in the news and I’m commenting on it.

    You’re right, the guy is now irrelevant but I find it funny that even after being repeatedly savaged in the media for cosying up to and refusing to condemn Hamas, he hasn’t learned a thing and he still can’t do it.

      @galmuth he said “any attacks”. Get over it. Accusing him of “cosying up” when trying to initiate dialogue is petty.
