Roger have you always been this gruff and cynical?

 

Um .... I'll let others decide that but I'll give you this Lords related bar link .... Published June 2015 ....

Right .... Corbyn has got six questions to ask in exactly 12 hours from now ...... At PMQ's ..... If he dredges up more questions from his email box I will be disappointed. He has got to think on his feet in his new role.

Jeremy Corbyn adviser Andrew Fisher suspended by Labour Party

There is no known precedent for someone employed by a Labour Party leader to have his membership taken away

The tweet that has done Mr Fisher the most harm in Labour circles was one which urged voters in Croydon Central to back an anarchist who was standing in the general election.  He wrote: "FFS if you live in Croydon South, vote with dignity, vote campaignbeard" - a reference to the Twitter account of Class War candidate Jon Bigger. Emily Benn, who was Labour candidate in Croydon Central, has sent a written complaint to Mr McNicol.

Falling apart for Jeremy. There are a few anarchists out there but he is losing the mass appeal as I don't think reasonable Labour voters' are anarchists .....

'Jihadi Jez' Under Fire From His Own Side

 

Jeremy Corbyn is copping flak from Labour figures for suggesting 'Jihadi John' should have been brought before the courts.

His critics are now calling him "Jihadi Jez". That’s because Jeremy Corbyn said it would have been better to put Mohammed Emwazi on trial instead of killing him.

 

The backlash against the Labour leader’s comments has ranged from fury to ridicule. And that’s just among Labour MPs and party supporters.

 

 

Sky News

 

Corbyn obviously wanted The Met to send a couple of Officers' over to Syria to arrest 'Jihadi John' for his war crimes. That may have been impractical and so he was vapourised in a drone strike instead. I think Corbyn is about the only person in the UK not happy with that outcome.

Jeremy Corbyn must pick his side in the war on terror The Conservative charge that Labour cannot be trusted to keep the country safe will stick as long as Corbyn leads Labour

Jeremy Corbyn was asked by the BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg if he would order the police and security services to shoot-to-kill if terrorists were murdering British citizens on the streets of the United Kingdom. “I’m not happy with a shoot to kill policy,†Labour’s leader replied, “I think that can often be counter-productive.â€
 
 
Corbyn is a terrorist sympathiser  .....

Is he in favour of a pinpoint shot on a knee or arm so as to drag the suspect in for questioning ? I think that's the World he lives in. Which is 'Fantasy Island' .... In my opinion ....

Shoot to wound is a favourite of liberal armchair warriors. I remember reading a book crime novelist and former policeman Joseph Wambaugh where he explained exactly how difficult it is to hit a moving target when being shot at yourself or running in pursuit, never mind targetting a specific location.  Should be compulsory reading for any bien pensant types whose only experience with firearms is video games and hollywood movies.

Jeremy Corbyn's shoot-to-kill view rejected by Hilary Benn

 

 

_86720016_030148718-1.jpg

 

 

Labour MPs have criticised their leader Jeremy Corbyn after he said he was "not happy" with a police policy of "shoot-to-kill" during a terror attack.

Mr Corbyn said any such policy could be "dangerous" and "counter-productive".

At a party meeting one MP accused him of " misunderstanding" the threat, while another called him a "disgrace".

BBC

Corbyn is dangerous for UK National Security.

To be honest Roger I would just like to see some kind of opposition because it's good for politics and democracy as much as competition in business is healthy and beneficial to the consumer....and you know what.....it just isn't happening. I am very disappointed and its obvious to me that he won't serve the full term.

 

I am impressed however on how quickly billions of pounds can be found at a moment's notice from the Chancellor. Our boys down the road already have pretty much an open cheque book so my guess the regiment numbers are set to grow as will the helicopters which seem to be in a constant state of airborne deployment at the moment.

Roger, what is so disgraceful about the removed tweet?

It is true.  Since Friday, there has been a massive increase in people spreading bile and hatred towards certain religions that may, or may not have centres in the Middle East...

Unless I am missing something, the tweet doesn't say that it approves of this, it is merely stating a fact.

You only have to glance at anything posted by the idiots from Britain First (to name but one, there are plenty of others to choose from) to see that.

The only people responsible for those deaths are ISIS and those terrorists in Paris. To twist it around to put the emphasis on the cause of those deaths to be the French Govt. and it's allies is a warped view. Labour MP Chucka Umunna has just been on the radio discussing that tweet. He says he found it grossly offensive and insensitive to the French people. He also said that he is 'disturbed' that Corbyn is attending that Stop The War Christmas party. He said that he should be representing, and speaking up for, the British Public as a whole instead of aligning himself with a fringe element.

Sorry Roger, I didn't get that from reading the posted image.  I must be missing something...

I didn't follow the link, if that is where the claim was, then I missed that.  Apologies if that is the case, it is indeed rather poor taste to say the least.

Jeremy Corbyn accepts shoot-to-kill policy after Labour MPs savage his opposition Labour leader's spectacular U-turn after earlier saying he is 'not happy' with shoot-to-kill policy if terrorists were loose in the UK

corbyn_3459241b.jpg

 

Jeremy Corbyn has said that he would authorise the use of lethal force against terrorists in a Paris-style attack, marking a dramatic reversal of his earlier opposition to David Cameron's shoot-to-kill policy.

Ah he's dithered and then changed his mind no doubt based on those advisers banging in his ear. For God same at least stick to your principles man!

In stressful situations decisions sometimes have to be made quickly whether they are right or wrong. Consequences can be far worse if a decision is not made at all!

Posted

So for good or bad he,s in,so one way or the other it's going to stir things up. I personally became bored with three men in suits all looking the same with just the appropriate colour tie for differentiation and let's be honest I would love for him to turn up in brown socks and sandels!

He maybe a dinosaur but which one...will he have teeth?

I know that dinosaurs died out but that was due to third party intervention a fete that could await all of us.

It looks like as a country we have lost interest in centre ground politics it's either left or right, alkaline or acidic neither ultimately good for democracy so here we go ..let's see what happens.

Based on my first post on this thread...he has no teeth. He doesn't have a grey suit...he,s just grey and more so than Mr Major.

 

I am so disappointed and he could never be a leader of this country.Should he have more time...nope.

Posted

I'm sick to death that I have to bump this topic up to the top all the time. He is a '******* disgrace'. I know he's got a Mandate from the Leadership Election but he got that on the back of other issues. I'd ask people to re-visit their support for him. But the alternative is probably 'Tory-Lite' Policy. Labour Party is in a very bad place at the moment.

I will add that as a Terrorist Sympathiser (in my opinion) I am not over the moon that Jez has been inducted into the 'Privy Council'. Lots of secret stuff there. The man is something that is going to end in a car crash.

I cannot stand the man and it would be a disaster for the UK if he were ever to become PM. The bloke lives in cuckoo land and must be a terrorists dream leader.

Jeremy Corbyn is a danger to the national security of the UK. I truly believe that he thinks he can sit down with these nutters and have a chat. Having just read this article the PM is 100% bang on.

 

A succession of Labour MPs raised concerns about the Labour leader’s remarks in the House of Commons. Chris Leslie, the former shadow chancellor, said: “The prime minister is right that the police and the security services need our full support at this time. But shouldn’t it be immediately obvious to everyone – to everyone – that the police need the full and necessary powers, including the proportionate use of lethal force if needs be, to keep our communities safe?â€

David Cameron said: “I hope that the leader of the opposition will review his remarks because, frankly, when you are combating a terrorist attack and if you look at what happened in Paris, it was an attack, it wasn’t a siege, it wasn’t taking hostages and setting out demands, it was an attempt to kill as many people as possible. When the police are confronted by that they must be absolutely clear that if they have to take out a terrorist to save lives they should go right ahead and do so.â€

Labour At War Over Livingstone Trident Job

 

Ken Livingstone sparks anger in the party after telling a Labour MP, who criticised his appointment, to get "psychiatric" help.

 

3940.jpg?w=620&q=85&auto=format&sharp=10

 

 

A vicious row has erupted in the Labour party after Jeremy Corbyn appointed his close ally Ken Livingstone to lead a defence review.

 

The surprise appointment triggered an angry backlash from Labour MPs, with former defence minister Kevan Jones saying his role would "damage our credibility".

 

Mr Livingstone responded by saying Mr Jones "might need some psychiatric help" and should see his GP for depression.

 

Sky News

 

Maria Eagle MP is the shadow defence secretary and she is pro Trident and it would appear Corbyn has parachuted in Ken Livingstone to 'babysit' her as he's an opponent of Trident.

 

Livingstone's cruel comments about Kevan Jones are quite unfortunate as the guy does actually suffer from depression. 

 

Livingstone has refused to apologise.

Posted

I just watched 'Newsnight' and Ken Livingstone was interviewed live. He said, basically, that he didn't know who was operating his Twitter account. That account was how he issued his 'unreserved apology' earlier ..... About depression ....

Interviewer (Emily Maitliss) was excellent in her interview of Ken Livingstone I thought. Her clothes were like something off a Xmas tree tho. You won't get it from the still picture but her 'bra' never seemed to be the remotely right size for her body .....

John McDonnell denies backing call to end MI5 and disarm police

Shadow chancellor caught in controversy after his name appears on list of supporters published by socialist campaigners

 

labour-4_3455870b.jpg

John McDonnell is at the centre of a row about whether he endorsed a statement before the election advocating doing away with MI5, special police forces and armed officers.

 

The controversy broke out after it emerged the shadow chancellor’s name was on a long list, apparently of people who had signed a statement by the Socialist Campaign for a Labour Victory (SCLV).

 

The final paragraph of the 12-point document states: “Disband MI5 and special police squads, disarm the police.â€

 

The shadow chancellor’s office said on Thursday he believed no such thing and denied he had ever signed the statement, which was prepared before May 2015. 

 

 

Guardian

 

Here is the statement the shadow chancellor denies endorsing:

Is the Corbyn appointed chancellor telling the truth?

Both of these people are obviously a threat to National Security.

The Labour Party has to deliberate, over the weekend, about what to do about Syria. Prior to the PM calling a vote.

 

On Monday it's got three choices. 1. 'Whip' the PLP into Yes to airstrikes. 2. 'Whip the PLP into No to airstrikes. 3. Offer a free vote. 

 

I can't see Corbyn having a good weekend. He already looks dreadfully battered on tv.
