yaqoob apologised for joking about domestic violence on a podcast, where he said 70% of hell will been. when another podcast guest said he would give a female a backhander, yaqoob replied brother, are you saying that if she comes up in your personal space, you'll defend yourself? and that's of course, a reference to defence arguments employed by lawyers, which prompted laughter from all other guests on the podcast. and on that same podcast episode, yaqoob has said, laughing along when the man he created this new party with shakeel afsar, who i'll get on to in a second, said this. >> okay, you know, the other argument is arbel. okay, so if you don't like it here, go to your own country. >> but why would we? why would we do that when our forefathers were. >> instrumental in rebuilding this country after world war ii? it was our grandfathers who worked in the factories 20 20 hours. it was our grandfathers who came here and run the infrastructure. it was our grandfathers who brought you the lovely curry, which is your national dish. 1525 00:09:12,8
