The BBC are still reporting https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-45208358 that:
'Jeremy Corbyn has said he did not know that a man he stood next to at a wreath-laying ceremony was a senior member of a militant Palestinian group.
Maher Taher, of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PLFP), was pictured alongside the Labour leader at a 2014 event in Tunis.
The PLFP was later linked to an attack on an Israeli synagogue. The US and EU consider it to be a terrorist group.
Mr Corbyn told the BBC: "I was unaware of any of his background."'
Unfortunately for the BBC there are still news outlets that don't slavishly follow the Labour Party line.
Guido Fawkes https://order-order.com/2018/08/17/forgetful-jezza-strikes/ has some further information:
'Jeremy Corbyn told the BBC today that he was unaware he was sharing a platform with the PFLP terror group at the 2014 Tunisia Conference. But writing about the conference in the Morning Star at the time he said that he "heard opening speeches from Palestinian groups including Fatah, Hamas, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine." So he was obviously aware…'
Will the BBC update their report to reflect this information? What do you think. The BBC's efforts to minimise any damage to the Labour Party leader is disgusting and the deliberate misleading of the British people should not go unpunished.
Can as many people as possible complain to the BBC about their omission of information that, if true, shows Jeremy Corbyn to have lied about knowing who was on the platform with him.
