    Yes, I do. I lived in Northern Ireland at the start of the Troubles where I and my family were IRA targets.

    So you're comfortable with him attending IRA funerals and hanging out with Adams and McGuinness?

    I spent some time behind the Iron Curtain in the 1980s. I can tell you that anyone who visited East Germany at that time and returned still espousing socialism is either a sadist or mentally ill. I'll grant you Diane in the Loony camp, but Jeremy simply isn't this principled kind old chap the propaganda would have you believe; he is an enthusiastic proponent of systems and organisations every bit as repulsive as Nazism.

    Would you do that, a?

    I just find the constant accusations from both sides/parties at the other as being manifestations of Beelzebub as tiring. Our virtue-signaling SJW chums on Facebook are doubtless still busily fuming at how Mrs May, in their opinion, is just like Hitler. I have no party, no side, no tribe in this. I have no group of people to form a bubble of approval for my opinons. I'm tired of both sides using the shrill emotional blackmail of demonisation. Theresa May's re-election will literally be the end of the world, according to a poster I saw this morning.

    I agree very much about the demonisation. BUT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THINGS HE HAS PHYSICALLY DONE.

    For ****'s sake, can we stop beating about the bush here. Corbyn is not being targeted for sympathising with terrorists, he is being targeted for sympathising with the wrong side.

    See the Conservative and UNIONIST Party for further information.

    Isn't the whole point of politics, in layman's terms, that both sides are wrong?
    "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    Not when it comes to terrorism. You have to pick a side.

    Not in my experience. We happily create terrorists just as cheerily as we catch and kill them. Makes no difference to us, so long as we get paid.
