Corbyn 'forgot' meeting banned pro-Palestinian activist per BBC News

The BBC http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-33991920 are happy to accept Jeremy Corbyn at his word:

'Labour leadership contender Jeremy Corbyn has told the BBC he had "forgotten" meeting a controversial Lebanese activist.

Mr Corbyn initially told BBC Radio 4's World at One programme he had no idea who Dyab Abou Jahjah was.

He later said he must have forgotten meeting Mr Abou Jahjah, who is banned from the UK over his views on the Middle East, in 2009.'

Forgotten, yes of course.
