Part of 1. 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:52 pm on 20 June 2017.
Well, it’s very far from a cheap political point. I was quoting from one of our national newspapers—[Interruption.]—where the headline is
‘Let inferno victims seize empty homes, says Corbyn’.
He’s the one who said it. I have no objection, obviously, to Jeremy Corbyn articulating the views of people, particularly those of his constituents. We all do that. But in these highly charged situations, it is very dangerous indeed for rhetoric of that kind to be used when sobriety in the way that we express ourselves is to be desired. To attempt to make political capital out of this in that way, I think, is very undesirable indeed.
