He was and is a member of the British parliament. A member of the British Labour Party. He IS the fucking unionist side.
He's just a man who realised even earlier than Margaret thatcher, John major, Tony Blair and bill Clinton that the only way to get a brokered peace in the north was to open a dialogue.
History has proven him correct. If he hadn't broken this ground, the peace process likely would never have happened and we'd now be fighting a war on terror on two fronts instead of one.
We have no way of knowing how many thousands of people owe their lives and their health to brave men of peace like Jeremy corbyn. Be thankful that we have men with his moral courage in politics. It makes it acceptable and possible for murderers like Blair to take the glory for the peace process that corbyn and others made possible.
I've heard some revisionist nonsense on here over the years but this takes the proverbial.
Corbyn never opened any dialogue, he was, and still was, until Labour decided to into go full on left mode, an irritant
from his superglued seat on the backbenches. He was never given any instruction from the Labour hierarchy to 'Open a dialogue,'
he never invited UDA members to parliament, he never had any minutes silences for dead UDA members, he had no power, influence,
or credibility and was just treated as some no mark lefty crackpot at the time, with the full details of his support for the IRA now
only coming to light because of his current position. He did not break any ground, and to suggest that thousands of people owe their lives
to him, is the most audaciously ridiculous thing I've seen on here.
The IRA were broken because the British Army and the RUC had completely compromised their ranks, 9/11
had destroyed their financial support, and this was when the likes of McGuinness had their Damascene moments
and decided that the Peace process was suddenly the way to go.
