Re: spying
Funny how Corbyn past is dragged up on here nearly everyday though eh!! keep hearing about how he was having it away with Abbot or was big mates with Gerry Adams etc! but mention the likes of Ben Bradley.
We get this
That was when the guy was 21 , 7 years ago .
As I have said in the past week what is good for the goose is good for the Gander.
I will leave it at that as I will endeavour to comply with the wishes of the site owner as in no Political posts. Yet it is always the same 1/2 dozen who continue you to drag politics up again and again.

Re: spying
There’s only one thing to look for in apolitical party, that is if we have to have them and that is the basics of what they stand for. If it’s not their own countries sovereignty then don’t vote for them, if it is to retain their own countries way of life, and if this is what you want then vote for them. Any promises they may make forget about, they are all regardless of Party a bunch of self seeking bureocrats who build Shields of the same around themselves they tell lies cause conflicts and have a whole set of different morals to the people they are supposed to serve. If you can give them the time to argue about them then you must have little better to do. You takes your pick and youse take your chances. They are all cast from the same mould. Cheers JWS.

Re: spying
I still listen to BBC World Service , so you get global politics , and as you say John , same moulds , and the same faecal material used to cast . to do any political job , my late father , an Amber Valley local councillor for many years , used to say you are there to serve the electorate , not yourself .

Re: spying
Lewis, surely you are not questioning Corbyn having his wicked way with D.A.
Did he not take some of his mates to view the stark naked Abbott as she lay in her bed, that alone should bar him from any kind of leadership.

Re: spying
JCs activities,
Weeks after the Brighton bomb in which the IRA came within a whisker of wiping out Margaret Thatcher’s Cabinet, Mr Corbyn caused outrage by inviting members of Sinn Fein including Gerry Adams to the Commons.
In 1987 he observed a minute’s silence for the eight IRA members killed by the SAS in an ambush in Loughgall, Co Armagh. His decision to hire Ronan Bennett, the novelist whose conviction for murder and terrorist offences had recently been overturned, as a researcher led to the Speaker banning the writer from Parliament.
Abbott had a brief relationship with current Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn when he was a councillor in north London in the late 1970s

hi rob page
your scientific theory of black holes is absolutely bang on,and its a modern day conundrum on how he ever got his head back out what with the gravity forces pulling him into it,
my own experiences on black holes started in freetown and culminated with the two jungle bunnies trying to escape in to the jungle thicket with my best levi jeans and jean jacket, I was lucky to get out of there alive.

hi cappy
I will not discuss politics as it will lead to a breakdown of a group of friends held together by the promise of early doors exit from the heinous constrained autonomous run Germanic state, but I will say I fear the outcome will not be happy one,
