Some readers might recall the post I wrote about George Galloway’s ridiculous Comment programme on the vile Press TV (and the hilarious angry response to it posted by one reader.) The format of the show is simple: people phone, email or text in to slag off Israel and the Jews and to defend Hamas and the Iranian regime, which funds the channel.

When Galloway is too busy spreading hate or handing money to Hamas to appear on Comment, he is stood in for by arch hypocrite Jeremy Corbyn MP.

Say what you like about Galloway and his hideous politics (though be careful, the poor little dear is very touchy and trigger-happy with the old writs!) but at least he makes the Comment show entertaining. So it’s a clever move of his to get Corbyn to cover for him, because as well as being a hypocrite Corbyn is also a completely incompetent broadcaster.

Witness the opening call on last night’s show…

Caller: “Hello?”

Corbyn: “Where are you calling from?”

Caller: [Indecipherable.]

Corbyn: “Yes, can you….give us your message?”

Caller: “Hello?”

Corbyn: “Hello?”

Caller: “Hello?”

Corbyn: “Hello caller, you’re….through to Comment.”

Caller: “I can’t hear…”

Corbyn: “You’re through to……camera….”

Caller: “Hello?”

Corbyn: “You’re through to me now.”

Caller: “Hello?”

Corbyn: “Give me a…call…please….”

Caller: “Hello, can you hear me?”

Corbyn: “Yes, I can hear you!”

Caller: “Hello?”

[Long pause, Corbyn sweating and not knowing what to do.]

Corbyn: “Erm, can you turn the television down in background because I’m not sure you can hear me?”

[Long pause, Corbyn worrying that Ahmadinejad will have his guts for garters if he doesn't sort this out soon.]

Corbyn: “Okay, we’ll have to leave that one.”

Caller: “Hello?”

It was the most intelligent exchange I have ever heard on Comment!
