Downing questioned on 9/11 and Middle East views

A revolutionary socialist, who has been expelled from the Labour Party, explains his past comments about the Middle East and the 9/11 attacks.

Speaking to Andrew Neil, Gerry Downing said he did not support ISIS 鈥渕ilitarily or politically鈥� but believed in providing "tactical" support, and was against US bombing.

At PMQs, David Cameron condemned Mr Downing's re-admittance to Labour, and he was expelled a few hours later by the party's NEC. But the Socialist Fight member told the Daily Politics, he would be appealing against that decision.
