George Galloway Thinks Labour Have Underestimated Jeremy Corbyn | Good Morning Britain

thomascook bosses talking of people cruelly lacking stuff are under pressure to have back millions of pounds in bonuses just those collapse of the travel company when it comes to the huge operation to bring home more than 150 thousand British holidaymakers continues and joining us now broadcaster and former MP George Galloway who is one of those saying give back the money absolutely I mean I'm angry but not as angry as the hundred and fifty thousand the end of whose holiday has been ruined and hundreds of thousands who may not actually even now get on holidays up to a million people and the nine thousand staff Anika seemed even more seriously thousands of employees many of them concentrated in single areas Greater Manchester Peterborough people have been devastated by this while these people were behaving as if a Roman orgy these executives I mean they might have done something that looks unsavory now when the when people feel like they've been abandoned although you know that they're due to come home and their holidays are ruined yeah but people get paid big money to do John sometimes they don't do them very well yeah but why do you how do you get a performance bonus of millions when your company is headed for the roles and at the very moment when your company is headed for the wrongs what is a performance bonus is there a reward failure yeah exactly if your ratings were plummeting they'd hardly be coming along to give you bigger pay but that's what seems to happen in these kind of companies it's an absolute scandal but I'll tell you I also hold the government responsible it's going to cost the taxpayer far more to pay the unemployment pay for the newly redundant to meet the other costs involved in this crash a moral hazard says Boris Johnson who wouldn't recognize a moral hazard if it was sitting on top on the pre but on the previous points the point that these bosses were responsible for running the company and got performance bonuses surely bosses have a duty to run a company well and shouldn't rely on the fact that the government will step in and bail them out if it goes well that's what it means by moral hazard but there are certain institutions in Britain there are a part of the very fabric of our country do you know when I started in Parliament almost before you were born over 30 years ago Thomas Cook was Thomas Cook actually was our official travel agent it had an office right underneath the speaker's jail that's how much state-run institution all in and should taxpayers hard-working men and women of this country pay money to compensate well failure of bosses to do their job it's about accountancy versus economics the accountant would say no the economists would say yes if it's going to cost you more to crash one of our great institutions just as we're about to sail off into the world after brexit god willing to crash one of them it's gonna cost you more than it is to save it seems to me not rocket science that is better to save it you mentioned iconic you mentioned breaks it do you know what jeremy corbyn's viewer breaks it is i think so can you I've known I've known him for virtually 40 years what is it he won't say it oh no he won't say it because he's leading a party which has him by the throat or thought it did they underestimated him as so many have so many times and what is his view I'm sure is against the European Union I saw up with them through the night night after night trying to bring down the the Maastricht Treaty the Lisbon Treaty but he says he campaigned for remain vote it remain well he said so and because he was the leader of a party that committed itself that way it's not my style of leadership mic style of leadership would not be I'm their leader I must follow them because you've just said you've known him for decades yeah and you believe that he's a brexit ear yes but if he's saying one thing which is he's a remainer but he's actually doing something else well I think I'm not him I don't speak for him but he'd say I'm the leader of a party which has a policy I must reflect that policy but why be leader if you're not prepared to lead I mean on the biggest issues since the Second World War I wanna be this country's had for the leader of one of the two main party to simply not express a personal view about what he thinks that brings it seems to me as Nicola Sturgeon said an abrogation of leadership will have a heart I mean he did triumph over all these backstabbers yesterday give him a moment to bask in having seen off what all he's done is the right all he's one is the right to not have to make a decision well functionally speaking this was a coup attempt yesterday to get rid of Corbin and again they underestimated them he's lived to fight another day I happen to believe after an election if he were to win it he would begin to show what he really feels about the European Union in the negotiations for a new labor deal same question as I did to grace Blakely his representative on the National Policy Forum a little bit earlier if I wanted to vote for labour it's a little bit like playing Russian roulette with my vote if I vote for labour it's a little bit I don't know if I'm gonna get Breck so we'll remain well of course I accept that I'm a strong supporter of brexit and I regard the efforts of lady Nagi and Lord star ma and Tom Watson and the new the new additions to the fifth column Diane Abbott for goodness sake the erstwhile Trotskyite john macdonald they all tried basically to overthrow corbin yesterday and they failed all the members cheered them to the equi it represents the split in the labor business it's always been a split in the labour party split in the Tory what you say on the a private education debate the Labour wanting to get rid of well look I believe in parental choice philosophically in freedom but you've got to pay for the full cost of that freedom and that can't happen as long as you're fifty thousand a year private school is being treated as a charity so I support labor ending its charitable status ending its VAT exemption and so on but people still have to be able to send their kids to a Catholic school for example or as many labor Grandy's do send their kids to private course that's an uncomfortable position well rank hypocrisy the the Diane Abbott story in particular because it's one thing if you were sent to a private school by your parents you've got no responsibility her own child if you say our own daughter wants to get rid of them yeah I mean maybe she's seen the light who knows final question you very kindly tweeted about my Renaldo resilient peers last night Messi won another FIFA best four of the Year award these two are jostling for this legacy position of the greatest footballer to ever live and by most I think most people except now we might be living in the presence of the two all-time greats hmm which one do you sit with Cristiano Ronaldo is the goat the greatest of all time Messi did it and has done it is doing it for one club all his life and he hasn't done it and to international he's won a major tournament he's cattle so he's also won the league in the three toughest leagues yes and I do think jesse is a wondrous play one of the press well yeah but he has slightly I think sat in his comfort blanket of Barcelona yeah and he's ever won anything with Argentina and I think that those things do about XI when it comes to the legacy of the great in the legacy I think the players who do go and challenge themselves in other in other hobbies less comfortable playing hurts yeah yeah now who could have stayed at Real Madrid for another four or five years easy the key to another challenge absolutely I hope he comes back alby's the manager of Manchester United one day there interesting thanks very much always good to see thank you very much look forward to your interview with Leonel Messi and then your change from him well he doesn't speak English so you can't actually interview Messi with that it wouldn't know what his good one of those people so I think you're either one of the I'm team Ronaldo no but funny enough you know seven eight years ago a Messi was winning everything and was like the king you know it was probably little most people then would have said I did that messy at the time seemed like the greatest I just in the last five six years Renaldo's the consistency and the challenges he said himself to me takes him above how well were you you're not already I like Messi you
