I'm certainly glad the SAS slotted the 8 cunts as they were bombing a police station for which corbyn had his munute's silence.

Corbyn was around no table. He was no where near the Loyalists. He had no part in the peace process. He was no middle man. He was just an IRA supporter.

Waahey, Hereeee's strawman. You have gone through more strawmen than Wurzel's Aunt Sally.

On your first point, fair enough, no problems with that. What about Bloody Sunday? The British Army on orders from the British Government to indiscriminately kill innocent people? Terrorism, no?

On your second point, any evidence or is it more hearsay?
 
Ha Ha.
May defending her social care climbdown (sorry clarification) on Labour's scaremongering now.
You really could not make it up Jeff.
This is the so called PM who puts herself forward as strong and yet at the first hint of any pressure or resistance backs down.

"We must stop Labour scaremongering"

*Makes scaremongering speech on voting Labour*

I certainly can't remember such a major change to a manifesto proposal just a few days later. And it will not achieve its objective of closing down the issue unless they announce what the cap will be.

James O'Brien has said on LBC that the station is getting lots of calls from Downing St asking them to stop talking about the Social Care controversy. This is comical now.

That's a lie isn't it.

As for her, I wouldn't vote Tory if she was leader. I wouldn't vote Tory if she was my candidate either. I hope she doesn't win her constituency.

He seems very quick to jump on anyone who is mentioned with terrorism. She was in the middle of it for the Loyalists. I would have thought, he would have steered clear of her, bearing in mind she was happy to hamper the Peace process and worked with Martin McGuinness.
Mind, that's toryism, one one rule for one.....

To be fair, they had to climb down within a week over the budget and tax hikes. Bit shit them really.
Weak and unstable.
 
A very strong and stable climb-down, or is it a strong and stable back-track, or is a U-Turn?

Well, whatever it is, it's definitely strong and stable. Not to mention it all being Labour's fault!?


LOL

I tend to agree with a lot you post - if not directly, I at least understand where you are coming from and can understand your POV - but this is not your cleverest post

I clearly said:

"actively supported the IRA"

That I was meaning active support in the past - when the PIRA was active - is obvious

Hold me hands up I misread thought to said suports not supported.
 
Does anyone truly believe they would backtrack if there wasn't an election looming, what's to stop them implementing a similar scheme 12 months down the line ? Laughable.
 
I wish I knew how to put faces on these things...

But you get the idea.

In 2015 they promised a cap of £72k on care costs in their manifesto. As soon as they were elected, they dropped it.

It's getting embarrassing the number of U turns. It's like a trial and error policy scattergun to see if anyone likes it. This week we will be killing foxes and elephants. No ? Don't like that one ? How about goldfish then, can we kill some of them ? If I didn't know better I'd say they were trying to throw this election to escape the Brexit shambles that awaits.

So you agree with indiscriminate murders of innocent people so long as it's the British doing it?

I believe that it's about time there was a leader of Britain (and the US for that matter) that do things around the table rather than dropping bombs in all directions. The only way that peace was ever going to be possible in Ireland was by politicians sitting around a table and listening to people whose actions they deplored previously. Thatcher finally worked that one out, Major knew it, Blair knew it, Clinton knew it and Stormont finally realised it too so I'm not going to castigate Corbyn for wanting to do that long before any of the others.

Why should we sit around a table with these people?? Why should we give an audience to the likes of ISIS, a cult that actually murders people indiscriminately? Why should we sit around a table with Assad, a man who has killed whole swathes of people in his own country for wanting democracy. Do you not realize the people of Syria do not want Assad but are forced to accept his rule due to fear, the Arab Springs did not happen by accident.

The IRA wanted to take a part of our country, a part that did not want to be taken, what is there to talk about beyond telling them to get stuffed?

If Spain invaded Gibraltar or Argentina invaded the Falklands again would an appropriate response be to get them around a table and talk it out whilst our own citizens are subjected to foreign rule? What if they tell us to do one? Do we then decide to defend ourselves? It is utter weakness at best and that is not what this country was built upon.

Our ability and willingness to make war and defend ourselves militarily along with the US is thankfully precisely why we are not under Nazi German rule today.

I think you'll find they did not promise a cap of £72,000 in their manifesto. They did however say that there would be a cap.

Further, they didn't "drop it" as soon as they were elected. They moved its implementation back to 2020, and at the time said there were still firmly committed to the cap.

Perhaps the idiot May might have thought about how unpopular dropping this was going to be and then she wouldn't have to be doing yet another embarrassing u-turn.
