Irrespective of the debate you're having with Chesh, you still made the shocking statement "Then when they invaded, first she HAD to fight or she would have been dead meat politically". I am therefore quite justified in taking you to task, especially if you mean it. Effectively, the witch had lots of brave people killed just to reinvigorate her career. That's not in any doubt, and all are agreed on that. But the galling thing is that you said that she had to do it. I cannot disagree more. It was a bloodless coup by the Argentinians, and her over-reaction was completely unwarranted. And let's not forget the war crime Chesh mentioned earlier. tories still shout about Blair's war crime (correctly IMO), but have a very short memory when it comes to the evil witch.
Well, I actually meant she felt she had to .... as a Tory PM who had set herself up as with the image the Russians dubbed the Iron Lady She would indeed have been dead meat I'm not sure why you imagine you need to take me to task. I am not saying I would have felt I had to, had I had the decision to make, I'm saying that someone like her would. Also you are picking on a matter not under debate, that she invigorated her career. My debate with chesh was about it being opportunism not being planned I'm not responding further as you are taking the conversation further and further from the original discussion
Consider the 'task' ended, now that you've clarified. My apologies if I upset you, but your original wording upset me. The old witch still stirs it up in many of us.
Made me laugh .... https://tompride.wordpress.com/2017...in-no-uncertain-terms-what-they-think-of-her/
Notice you're sticking up for him now when you & RCDM both ****ed off to leave him getting pulled about by Paul last night. Remainiacs sticking together my arse, only when it suits.
Our Tory supporting friends are confident of a ;landslide victory. This may not be a certainty. The reason for the big gap in the polls is because of Corbins lack of appeal. I believe one of the reasons for May calling an election is because she senses that things may start to go pear shaped. If this started the gap would narrow, Corbins ideas may look more attractive. If this started it could gather momentum quickly.
If the public haven't taken to Corbyn after all this time then they never will, no professional political gambler worth their salt would even lay a penny on Labour.
As for Corbyn, I think he's a good man with great ideals. However he's in the wrong place at the wrong time & may seriously damage his party by his refusal to stand down. We're about to find out, I guess! I have no doubt in my mind that Maggie May only called an election because she's seriously worried that up to 20 tories may be going to court for electoral fraud, or whatever it is. If she didn't call it, there would be up to 20 bye-elections to be held with the tories reputation in tatters, meaning they would lose most, if not all of them. In calling the election, she has removed this risk, and will also get the bonus of the tories flying high in the current ratings. I personally believe it to be an evil, morally reprehensible, and seriously damning decision. But not for tory lovers .....
As I said earlier, he's the right man in the wrong place at the wrong time. However, one thing you can say about him is that he is honest & sticks to his principles. Sadly, you can't say that about the tories. IMO, they're all crooks who have no idea what a principle is.
Trouble is his principles are he supports Terrorists and shows very little support for the people he claims he want's to represent.
