Remember this interview? Well I looked into it.
He said he didn't tweet it, and there appears to be some truth to that. It is his account, but it appears to be relaying a speech as he makes it.
It is not, however, a partial tweet and if he is taken out of context, then it's not the fault of the @guardian. We will now probably never know the context, but Liam has a big problem and he has not been fully open about it.  It's not the only time he says it, and this is exactly what he follow the remark in the top tweet of this thread. That the context he used it in. And for the benefit of the doubt, this is the same statement in full context. If North Somerset want this man, fine, but the United Kingdom should be ashamed nominating a man with these opinions to an international position. -- END -- |
