Surprised this hasn't been mentioned already. It certainly made me laugh.

He claims he didn't call for a bounty on the capture of the current and former US president. It looks like the Labour party are taking it seriously enough to suspend him pending an investigation.

Did he? Didn't he? What are the implications?

This is unacceptable, clearly we need to launch a drone strike on the queen to show our vassals that rebellion will NOT be tolerated

Well he was just trying to fit in as he is of muslim orgin.

It would help the forum enormously if we knew exactly what he said.

That is exactly what Ed Milliband would like to know as well!

However, if you'd care to actually read the BBC article it links to the following:

and I quote from that:

“If the US can announce a reward of $10 million for the captor of Hafiz Saeed, I can announce a bounty of 10 million pounds on President Obama and his predecessor George Bush,” Lord Nazir said, adding that he would arrange the bounty at any cost even if he was left with the option of selling all his personal assets, including his house.

Now now. That's no way to treat the mother country is it? After all, we taught you everything you know about global hegemony. Today you can proudly boast you learned from the best!

I know what the Tribune says, but I presume the event was recorded.
