    She's shaken hands with worse, I suppose. She knows it's the job.

    Mind you, I imagine she burnt the gloves afterwards.

    British troops left NI 10 years ago so I would say the Brits are out. The leading figures of the enemy were then invited to the table and afforded positions of power in the democratic apparatus which hardly equates to military defeat. Be rather like offering Heydrich a seat in the The Cabinet.

    Businesslike formalities are one thing, but we've got arseholes like Cambell and Blair calling him 'a great guy' and 'very tender'. Corbyn said he was 'a great family man'.

    Number 10's statement got it about right. Never calls him a total shïtbag, but by not saying he's not makes it clear he probably was.

    Oh, I agree, but that's just politics; they're all in it together. Like footballers.
