Tomorrrow at the party conference Diane Abbott will outline her vision on health policy. my guess is her kids go private. Just saying, usual hypocrisy from the hard left

I would think that that guess is quite reasonable. Having extolled the virtues of socialism all her life, her little darling went to a private school, as she did not want him with all those working class children at the local comp -they might use nasty words and like football. No, socialism is great for everyone else's children. Bet she won't be talking about equal chances in education for all . . .

 

[The Clamp]

He has NEVER condemned the IRA or any of their acts , and refused to do so as recently as last year.

You are simply incorrect. There was a lot of fuss made about these "5 denials". As your link and my link show, it can be misinterpreted.

My guess is that you have a personal dislike because he believed British troops in NI was making the situation worse.
Anyway, he won. The people have spoken, democracy has prevailed and I think I it's time we all just get on with it.

Are you seriously trying to claim that is evidence of Corbyn condemning the ira ? Quite simply laughable.

He doesn't once in that article condemn the IRA.

Well, I've given you my view. He wasn't a sympathiser. You and the rest of the Fairy Godfathers can get your knockers in a knot all you like, it won't change my opinion.

You're guilty of exactly the sort of crap you accused AM of; you've made your mind up and are refusing to open your eyes, only you're doing it in a mealy-mouthed, superior way.

I really can't believe what I'm reading from you and Midnight Rendezvous. You're both absolutely feeble not to mention gutless in MR's case. You'd both have had so much more respect from me if you just accepted the damning evidence, admitted you were wrong about him with his sucking up to the IRA, and admitted that you're prepared to forgive him that for what you consider the greater good.

While that may result in having your respect, something I neither need nor want, it would result in loss of respect for myself.
Just as MR said: My self worth isn't dependant on what someone I don't know, on the internet, thinks of me.

 

[glasfryn]

respect come where it is due
we have a soldier sniffing coke from the tip of his sword in St James Palace while on duty, and a few weeks ago another soldier/ex collecting arms to use in the name of the IRA...............................do they need respect
no word on here about either.

jaw,jaw not war,war.

opening your eyes is surley listening to both sides or is there only one side ....................yours

Equally it's really no concern of mine what you do or don't do, or what you think, but to me you come across as a pompous oafish VI former with his fingers in his ears. Your unwillingness to engage in debate is purely down to the fact that you've lost, not because of self respect. If you had self respect, you'd see it for what it is. You can't, you're not intelligent, I get that though. You're best ignored.

 

[Simster]

I don't have a side. As far as I'm concerned, Corbyn's links to the IRA are not what makes him unelectable to me. (I think there are plenty of other reasons). But my point is that to some, especially [MENTION=31796]alfredmizen[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5200]Buzzer[/MENTION], his credentials fall down right there before you even begin to dissect his politics that are IMO more relevant to the modern world, and what I can't abide is that these two have put forward evidence that he was far too cosy with people who sanctioned bombing innocent people, yet some people have point-blank refused to acknowledge this without even bothering to provide counter evidence - which IMO is disrespectful if you are loudly engaging in debate on this thread.

 

[Buzzer]

You are simply incorrect. There was a lot of fuss made about these "5 denials". As your link and my link show, it can be misinterpreted.

By saying that AM is wrong with that article, you are saying that the broadcaster Stephen Nolan is also wrong. Just to put that in perspective, he's a record-award winning Northern Irish presenter, he's also won broadcaster of the year and is something of an institution, one of those rare people who is highly respected by all sides in NI.

And your argument hinges on an article from Putin's official state mouthpiece, Russia Today which has no journalistic credibility and also fails to mention the links between the IRA and the former Soviet bloc which might also explain the mischievous slant that RT put on this topic. Here's an article from the Irish Independent that gives an insight into their relationship. http://www.independent.ie/irish-new...id-5000-ak47s-in-secret-bunkers-31267061.html

Get a grip.

 

[Simster]

Ah, the best way to rebut an inconvenient truth. The mark of a true simpleton. Cheerio Nibble.

 

[Brian Fantana]

Anyone who can't see that Corbyn is/was an IRA sympathiser really is totally and utterly braindead. It makes me wonder how people like that can manage to put their trousers on properly in the morning.

 

[Chicken Run]

Nibble why are you now called The Clamp?

Oh lordy.

Using Putin TV as credible 'evidence'.

*snigger*

 

[Hampster Gull]

we have moved on since the dark days of the troubles, when both sides committed atrocities. I am not sure it is relevant any more what Corbyns motives were and what he thought or didn't say. And it was a complex area. For me his current policies and leadership qualities are enough to make me shudder

I think his second in command is just as worrying.
I wonder how many Tories joined the Labour party to get Corbyn elected again...... great plan and job done.
