Made money from shares in her family business in the 70s-90s from apartheid South Africa, when asked said she had given profits to charity but couldn't remember which. Didn't sell the shares. Hodge gave a speech telling people that she understands why people are fearful of faces in schools being "different". She did also say we should talk up the benefits of immigration but I don't accept her understanding of people being fearful of people looking different.
We should talk up the benifits of immigration
Not in Israel of course😂
Those business overestimate, more as cover for other business
I don't understand why you're not able to understand people's fear of people who look different: they may have a different ethnic racial identity and hence agenda when it comes to the development of a society.
Good riddance to her 💯
What a joke!
She defends the ethnostate of Israel but condemns local Barking people that don't want mass replacement migration.
You're not being replaced. Stop the racist white flight and learn to love your neighbours.
She also wore a hijab when talking to Muslim leaders during an election.
Aren't the Israelis and the Barking cockneys both fighting the same issue?
What a detestably dishonest woman
One less Tory in the Labour Party
She’s being replaced by a reform type Tory now 🙄
One less reason to vote Labour.
Corbyn was no less reactionary in his cynical opportunism.
@@hammondpickle sadly live next to her constituency. They don’t need any more clowns and reactionaries who don’t really care about the constituents, they need proper Labour policies and representation. They mindlessly it’s Labour because it’s east London and that’s what they do. Will see the far right have a resurgence in that constituency and over the country. Can’t wait…
if only we could kick out other Tory s like Starmer.
Went into politics because she was bored with looking after the kids. Not to serve the public, not to make a difference.
a real old tory...
Corbyn a racist? Don't make me laugh . . .
She's a compulsive liar.
She clearly has a very very high opinion of herself. Not much self-depreciation. What an ego!
You can thank her for the tory government we have today.
and thankfully not the Labour government of middle-class Putin apologizing ideologues.
In contrast Hodge adopted the racist rhetoric of the BNP in 2006 when she claimed white people were angry at “black and ethnic minority communities moving in”.
She also called for “indigenous” people to have priority on council house waiting lists.
@@factstrumpprejudice6740 Corbyn and Hodge, peas in a pod.
You leftists are responsible for that. Not her.
I * hate * having to vote for your party in my constituency because of leftists clown-shoes like you, but if I didn't we'd have a Tory.
She seems to be quite pallie with generations of war criminals.
Free political prisoner James Allchurch. Peaceful words should never be a crime whatsoever their polotics.
With any luck you’ll be next sunshine.
And this woman has a say in all our lives, how on earth was that allowed to happen.
Still “patron of care homes in Barking, according to the local newspaper
@26:00 - a discussion of some of the 'naughty children' in today's House of Commons Conservative benches?
I hope so
I presume the idea of Chorley's 'exit interviews' is to give subjects free rein to spout their own hagiography. What a waste of time.
A very impressive public servant. We should be grateful for MPs like Margaret Hodge. I don’t know what’s wrong with the nutters who have left despicable, offensive comments here - they only shame themselves.
Free Political Prisoner James Allchurch
Agree. He never ever called for violence. We are living through 1984.

This is a joke right? Or should I say left!
Is she for real!
Hopefully she did..because he is
Why is he?? Explain?
I'm still amazed that someone in PR took a look at Corbin's anti banking platform decided that Banker obviously equates to Jew, then proceeded to call him antisemitic, despite the assumption that all banks are owned by jews being way, *way* more problematic.
@@dobianuli2742 zzzzzz...
No point, far lefties never listen to a word anyone else says
@@dobianuli2742 Cos he likes to hang out with racists who hate jews
Corbyn is a Stalinist, a Putin apologist, a cynical opportunist (supported the tory right-wing coup that was Brexit), a class traitor (appointed establishment communists as his chief advisors), feeble minded (failed to land a single blow against the tories at PMQs), lily livered (couldn’t even mount a defence against the A/S smears)…a thoroughly unpleasant human being, an antisemite he is not.
Hardly a contentious description.
She seems like a lovely lady.
She put the bust of Lenin in Islington town hall when she was leader of the council there, ask her about Islington children's homes.
Antihuman!
Well, he is.
Do justify that statement. Seriously.
@@thomaswikstrand8397
Look at how political record, he is a huge bigoted anti semite. He allowed his party to fester with hateful racism. The guy is a closet communist, heck he even wants the west to stop supplying Ukraine with weapons so that his beloved Russia can win. Absolutely vile human.
If she did, it’s just a statement of fact.
I salute Margaret Hodge for campaigning against racism, and for pointing out here that it is as much part of the Far Left as it is for the Far Right. As far as Jeremy Corbyn's part in this, well as Victor Hugo said it was as much Corbyn's fault not perhaps for being the darkness but for allowing the darkness to happen.
What I am not so sure about though is people reappraising Gordon Brown's Premiership. It is true that successors have hardly covered themselves in glory either, but what does it say about someone who needed a financial crisis to save their Premiership.
You salute Margaret Hodge? I’ve no doubt there are jew haters on the left but what exactly was the nature of the purported "hard left" antisemitism?
Fuelling racism?
@@SrulaD-bt3mn who, Dame Hodge or Jaycee?
As time passes, you might consider revisiting this comment. Racism is mot part of far right OR far left politics. It is part of the human condition. Where i believe your considered comment falls short is naming an individual for this unavoidable fact of life. Because on some level, it helps you feel better. He really would have required the super human powers of a deity to achieve such a feat. Which we both know in fact, he does not. So setting him up to fail which he was certain to. Was not very honest. Mrs Hodge must also know this but could never admit it. But we can do better I hope?
Good for her
yes, buggering off is the best thing she could be doing.
A lot of Corbynistas in the comments. Credit to Hodge for having the guts to stand up against anti-Semitism in her Party.
real news for anyone interested KernowDamo
