    Oh and a top trending story on BBC news is how Jezza thinks having police shoot to kill is counterproductive

    Maybe we could convince Jezza and Diane Abbot to run towards the danger and try and talk the terrorists around, like he did with the IRA?
    That was from 2015. Corbyn gaver a speech this evening and said:
    "I will take whatever action is necessary and effective to protect the security of our people and our country. That includes full authority for the police to use whatever force is necessary to protect and save life as they did last night, as they did in Westminster in March."


    Wow, borisesque in reversing stated beliefs and values to accomadate public sentiment. It seems Saint Jeremy has finally succumbed to the political reality and selling your soul for self advancement.

    I would like to withdraw my laugh at Stevo comment. He has been a lot more clever than I thought at first. Whatever happens he's won.

    JC doesn't win and it weakens the Labour party electorally (although May is undermining Stevo's plan by mucking up her part) and he's won bets and played his part in weakening Labour.

    If he does win then Stevo gets money thrown at him by people who want to start taking more aggressive tax stance.
    I love it when a plan comes together :mrgreen:
    Except a narrow defeat (anything above the 2015 result) for Corbyn probably wouldn't weaken either him or the party, but may well weaken the Conservatives.
    That's life - you can't have everything :)
    A week's a long time in politics as they say. Who knows what the next couple of days will bring.
    Just to be clear, I was talking about it from my own point of view - have look a bit further up the thread.

    he certainly isnt prepared to alter his long standing belief on first strike or even use of Nukes and that damaged him the other night.

    Yes, I got that. Sorry, not forming very coherent thoughts after 4 nights on the trot of very limited sleep.
