GB News

A fierce debate erupted on GB News today when Dawn Neesom questioned the funding sources behind Palestine Action, prompting guest James Schneider to dismiss her concerns as "nonsense innuendo".Speaking to Eamonn and Ellie on GB News, Dawn said: “The thing is, with Palestine Action, they have a very well-organised website. They run training courses around the country."Who is funding them? That’s what I want to know. Where is this money coming from? We know there are Iranian sleeper cells actually, not that sleepy operating in this country. There have already been several arrests, including Iranian spies. It makes me very nervous.”James Schneider responded: “Who is behind them? This is nonsense innuendo.”READ THE FULL STORY HERE

00:00was dangerous and stupid. The thing is with Palestine Action, they have a very, very well

00:06put together website. They do training courses around the country. Who is funding them? That's

00:11what I want to know. Where is this money coming from that funds them? And we know that we

00:14have Iranian sleeper cells, actually not that sleepy at the moment, in this country. There

00:18have been plenty of arrests, Iranian spies in this country. They make me very nervous.

00:24Who is behind them?

00:25This is nonsense innuendo. I'm sorry.

00:27Is it? Why is it nonsense innuendo?

00:30Where's the money coming from then, James?

00:32I don't know. I'm not a spokesperson for them. But the idea, because I don't know the funding

00:36for some organisation, which I presume comes from ordinary people giving them money because

00:41most people in this country...

00:42You presume, but you don't know.

00:43OK, hold on. Which is more likely an organisation is funded by donations from ordinary people,

00:50given how many people, hundreds of thousands of people march every week against the genocide

00:54or some spurious claim put up by Laura Koonsberg on her programme.

00:59I don't know about what Laura Koonsberg has said.

01:01I don't know what Laura Koonsberg has said.

01:01about some innuendo that it's been supported by Iran.

01:05But you don't know that they're not. How many people have been raised in this country?

01:08This is nonsense. I don't know that they're not funded by Martians. It doesn't mean that

01:12I would go on TV and say, well, there are questions to be answered about these Martian funding

01:16allegations.

01:16There are questions to be answered about their funding, surely.

01:19I'm sorry. They're not. It's a pure distraction. Where there is questions to be answered is,

01:25why is our government continuing to arm and support Israel in crimes which the British

01:30people are opposed to?

01:31That's a distraction from the question here, which is about Palestine action.

01:35Palestine action. Why are they doing what they do?

01:37Why have they attacked Reaper drones which send out the noise of children crying as the drone

01:46comes to then shoot people who go to look after the children? Why have they destroyed those

01:51things? It's not because Iran has paid them to do so. It's because they are morally disgusted

01:56by those weapons and they are horrified by the fact those weapons...

01:59It's not your opinion.
