Few weeks ago Corbyn saying he wasn't happy about our police given a shoot to kill ploicy. Strange ha hasn't mentioned it since Saturday.

You do know the BBC Trust upheld a complaint regarding the mis-reporting of this issue don't you?

They edited a different question to JC's answer to a totally different question.

The truth is that it wouldn't be his order to give. The police do not have a shoot to kill policy. Their policy is shoot to incapacitate. Armed officers are responsible for taking the decision to shoot. They must act within the law &in the preventing of a crime may use reasonable force.

Hmmm...depends on your principles I suppose...

Meeting the IRA, then denying it, then being forced to admit it when photographic evidence comes to light.
Elastic principles.
I see the Abbopotamus has twagged another media interview again, a debate with Amber Rudd.
She does seem prone to these sudden illnesses, doesn't she?
Perhaps she is being crooked by her former lover Corbyn as he realises she can't do the math or doesn't do the detail.
Prescott was a giant among politicians compared to these chancers.

He was an instrumental part of the peace process.

Would be great to see Michelle Dewberry get elected for so many reasons: a genuine Independent, breaking the Labour grip on this city, someone who doesn't feel constrained to vote along party lines.
She seems to have a sound grip of what local people want ( as opposed to what Islington or Knightsbridge want), and speaks her mind.

Could have sworn I saw her out campaigning in town one afternoon in this season's City shirt. She is putting in the hard yards on the campaign trail, seen her campaigning the other Sunday down Lonny.
Alan Johnson was an excellent MP, but Hull needs a fresh input.
If she did get elected, I have no doubt whatsoever that her life would be made very difficult up here and she would become a target for the vested political interests who regard this area as their personal fiefdom.

Made her money from outsourcing - enough said.

She'll lose her deposit anyway.

She's come from a long way from Kwiksave checkout to where she is now.
Maybe she wants to put something back and help the community she grew up in?
I've no idea how well she's doing in the polls.

Is it your policy to not have a policy?
Click to expand...

I have no policy because I will dissolve the House of Commons and allow the people to decide the budgets and what to do with them.

In this age of technology and instant communication our system is old and outdated. Why be stuck with the same crooks for four years who fed you a load of bullshit to win votes and then proceeded to backtrack and twist it all into a complete aberration of what you were sold and voted for?

Politics could be fluid and dynamic and give the people what they really want, rather than what the elite want to exploit.

By all accounts, people don't know she's on the ballot.

But I guess we'll see.

If she wants to put something into ordinary lives, why make your money from shafting people with outsourcing their jobs abroad?

Steven Hawking endorses Corbyn,

Noam Chomsky endorses Corbyn.

But some other brainiacs think he's unelectable, apparently.

Corbyn is not unelectable, but his manifesto is crap. In complete contrast to his slogan, it really is for the few, it's just for a few more than the tories.

Also he was **** in parliament and has only started to look good during the campaign.
