    I'll be amazed if he can convince the middle ground to switch back to Labour. Now he's in, I'll sit and watch how he does, but I don't hold out much hope, as the Tories will always major on his left wing background and that'll always be the elephant in the room for him, with the electorate.

  6. just had a quick google and saw this...

    "During the 2009 expenses scandal, Corbyn was revealed to have claimed the lowest amount of expenses of any Member of Parliament.[19][20] In 2010 he claimed the smallest amount of all 650 MPs"

    ...not a bad first thing to read about someone.

    Yeah but are you willing to pick up a gun and charge up the hill like those lads did, who died, last time it happened? <whistle> Die for oil rights? No thanks

    Or would you fight to the last drop of someone else's blood?

    Are you British? The folks of the Falklands are/want to be linked to the UK.

    so saying you'll go to war over the Falklands.. it is legitimate to ask if you would personally go to war or let someone else die for the war you would choose.

    It's a fair question when such hawkish statements are made.

    I always say, if politicians had to lead the charge there would be no war

    You know that I am not and you know the question is not relevant to what I asked you as well.

    You don't want to answer the question because we both know that when you say "go to war" over the falklands you mean someone else goes to war, not you, someone else dies or gives their kids up to die, not you.


    There are many families now who are pretty ****ing angry, a a gross uderstatement, that their kids had to die in the Iraq and Afghan wars.

    Lets add to that pile of flesh by going to war over a pissy Island half the world away. Because there is oil off the shores. Great

    So you have no idea about my pride of being British, how I would feel letting people of the Falklands be displaced/ruled by a nation that they dont wan't to be under?

    This has nothing to do with oil/mining rights for me, you may want to bring that up as it falls within your agenda. Would I be happy to put my name forward and march across the island in mid winter to defend a little corner of British life....You bet.

    So I ask if if you wanna go to war, would you personally go to war.

    You respond by refusing to answer and then talk about Nationalism(idiot) and my agenda <laugh>

    How truly ******ed are you mate <laugh>

    "my pride of being British" what a ****ing idiot <laugh>

    people matter not flags you dope.

    I pride myself on being a decent human being, not being an Irishman

    He's responded by putting into context his answer, as he clearly states he'd be happy to go to war, and he also clearly explains why he feels that you won't understand why.

    I have replied to your question, I would happily go to war and defend a little part of Britan half way across the world. Not for any other reason than other Brits live in that little part of the world<ok> Your agenda seems to be very confused, nothing wrong with national pride.

    A picture of him not singing the national anthem despite attending a service to mark the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain as a mark of respect.

    And a video of him walking down the street not answering questions from a Sky news reporter on why he didn't use positive discrimination.

    The witch hunt is on <ok>
