Eh? Must be missing your point. Whatever. If JC doesn't want to sell them arms he can find something else for BAE et al to do. And I don't know why you bother with the massive amount of detail you cut and pasted. I don't need convincing that the Saudis are a bunch of tossers - I can remember as far back as "Death of a Princess". The reality is that they're too important to look too hard at, just like the Russians and Chinese. Their human rights records and sponsorship of dodgy causes is a matter of record, but you think we're going to put trade with them in jeopardy?

The point is pretty clear, but you're missing it. I didn't post that to say look at what the Saudis are doing, it's to show what our evil government is doing. It's in response to people bashing JC for historic Terror involvement when he was there to try and bring peace. When our present government are accepting gifts from the people who are funding ISIS who are currently and relentlessly attacking people all over the planet. We sell them arms in addition and we also accept gift. Bet we even wine and dine them on the tax payers money too. Can't be any clearer. You see my point finally?

Your point seems to be that the government are being schmoozed by the Saudis and schmoozing them right back. Wow - who'd have thought it? We had the President of China over too. Met the Queen and everything. Evil bastard government.

Trying to make a saint out of JC is one thing, but you're being a bit selective about what he's said before. Trying to bring peace? Hmmm...

I'm not making out Corbyn to be a saint. I'm pointing out the hypocrisy. Forget it then. :)<ok>

Something smells fishy to me. Tories are trying to block a report into the Saudis which they agreed to under the terms of the coalition. If it's run of the mill what's to hide? I think something massive could emerge out of this. Just got a really bad feeling fella. :(
