Oh dear!
The terror loving antisemite was paid approx 5 times for his appearance on Iranian State TV, even after it was banned by Ofcom for its part in a forced confession!
Who’ve thunk it?
(Well Me - it’s fairly common knowledge in the U.K.- hopefully the media will bring this out for an airing when necessary)
Jeremy Corbyn was paid by an Iranian state TV station that was complicit in the forced confession of a tortured journalist
Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn accepted up to £20,000 (about $27,000) for appearances on the Iranian state broadcast network Press TV — a channel that was banned in the UK for its part in filming the detention and torture of an Iranian journalist.
Corbyn was paid for appearances on Press TV five times between 2009 and 2012, according to his register of interests, available at
this online House of Commons database.
Corbyn's final Press TV appearance was six months after
the network had its broadcasting license revoked by Ofcom for airing a forced confession by Newsweek journalist Maziar Bahari. Ofcom is the government's TV regulatory body which sets rules for UK broadcasters. Bahari told Business Insider that while he was detained by Iranian authorities he was tortured and threatened with execution before he agreed to read out a pre-agreed script on Iranian television, filmed by Press TV.
A spokesperson for Corbyn told Business Insider, "We don't comment on historical matters."
