Let us all hope and pray that the horrific attacks at London Bridge do not become Boris's equivalent of Thatcher's "Falklands factor".

Good that they’re promising to end early release for people convicted of terrorism (not before time)… and absolutely right to say that Jeremy Corbyn is unable to keep the public safe…. unable because he is unwilling. See his interview with Andrew Neil where he refused to confirm that, given the opportunity, he would take the leader of IS out. Can’t see a problem here.

If anything, the opposite might occur.
Thatcher made cuts to our defences so that the Falkland Islands were unprotected and inviting an invasion from the far right Argentinian dictatorship. We belatedly launched a recovery mission that resulted in hundreds of deaths, but today, all those sheep and penguins can sleep without worry of molestation.
On Friday, a terrorist that Labour had locked up a decade previously, but the Conservatives had let out early, went on the rampage and killed two innocent victims. There is no recovery from that. No armada, sacrifice of brave sailors lives or jingoism can improve the dire situation for the Tories. They *** up and people died as a consequence.
I doubt it will make any difference on the election either way, and definitely no bounce for Boris.

well Gromit I am now certain you are a Labour man, just come clean:
"all those sheep and penguins can sleep without worry of molestation." - you don't care for the Islanders then? those under our protection? yep standard left wing behaviour, you'd be happy to sacrifice them. I see you wheel out the usual carp that Kinnochio tried when challenged regarding the Falklands.
"On Friday, a terrorist that Labour had locked up a decade previously, but the Conservatives had let out early, went on the rampage and killed two innocent victims." - yes auto release by the Labour enacted law from 2008, the government does not "let people out" - that's the law and the judiciary and assorted administrators.
You really are showing your pro labour credentials, Jezza would be proud.

The beauty about winning an election (in 2010) is that you get to change anything you don’t agree with and don't like. If you let out hundreds of convicted terrorists for the next 10 years, it must mean you are not just OK with the law, but that you actively support it, by Complying with that (Labour) legislation with such enthusiasm.
(The big lie here is that Conservative [and Labour] Governments do not want to lock terrorists up for life because that is very very expensive).
Tora,
I freely admit after the Tories had humiliatingly lost the Falklands, they were were not not worth winning back. Not one British sailors life was worth it. We should have just nuked Buenos Aires and called it quits.

Though Khan’s original offence and arrest took place in 2010, it was in 2012 he was convicted. So it was under a Conservative administration he was detained, not under a hard marxist slap your wrist molly coddle terrorist sympathising Labour Government. I am happy to Accept your correction.
