David Cameron calls Osama Bin Laden's death 'a tragedy'

David Cameron has been mocked for quoting Jeremy Corbyn out of context in his conference speech, with thousands sharing a video of him calling Osama bin Laden's death "a tragedy".

The Prime Minister launched a scathing attack on the new Labour leader on Wednesday, telling Conservative party delegates: “You only really need to know one thing [about Mr Corbyn]: he thinks the death of Osama bin Laden was a tragedy.”

To loud applause, Mr Cameron went on to say: "We cannot let that man inflict his security-threatening, terrorist-sympathising, Britain-hating ideology on the country we love.”

What he had failed to do was give any context to Mr Corbyn’s comments, failing to mention the fact that he had said the lack of a trial for Bin Laden was the “tragedy”, not his death itself.

Mr Corbyn’s supporters have given Mr Cameron a taste of his own medicine by sharing a clip of the moment in his conference speech when he says: “the death of Osama bin Laden was a tragedy”.
