Oh dear, yet another false flag. First the person in a picture who wasn't Jeremy Corbyn. Now showing an articles from the Sunday Express about what Corbyn was supposed to have said. You really do need to do better than that. Check Hansard, and find out what the reaction was from the like of Paisley and co. on the Monday after Corbyn was reported to have said this.
"One frequently reported claim from his past is that Mr Corbyn stood in honour of eight members of an IRA gang who had been shot dead by the SAS in Loughgall in 1987 (as well as a civilian, who was wrongly targeted by the SAS).
The News Letter has searched for the original source of this claim, and found only a short reference to it in a publication called Politics Today, listed by Google Books as belonging to Conservative Central Office, 1988. Politics Today in turn says that the story stems from an edition of the Sunday Express on May 17, 1987. The British Library has provided the News Letter with a copy of the paper’s front page from that date".
Paisley made enough noise in Hansard in 1984 when Corbyn invited Adams to the House of Commons. But there is diddly nothing in May 1987 when Corbyn was supposed to have used the words, '‘I’m happy to commemorate all those who died fighting for an independent Ireland".
You will have to do better than> Using information from a journalist from the Sunday Express, who may or may not have been at Conway Hall on 16th May 1987, as evidence that Corbyn was a 'Provo sympathiser'. Corbyn has never denied going to the meeting what he has said, is that he was commemorating all those that has died in Ireland. But that would not have fitted in with those out to 'get' Corbyn by the right wing media, after 1984.
