I Wonder How Jeremy Corbyn Would Answer My Question ......

[Gizmonster]

.... I have a question and I'm curious as to how JC would answer it, it's straight forward enough:

"If the Falklands were invaded by the Argentinian's again, what would he do?"

Being renowned for being so anti-war, I wonder if he'd send the troops in ........ of if he'd prefer to sit around a table and try and negotiate.
I think we'd end up losing the Falklands, if he was ever in power and they got invaded again.

Love or hate Maggie, she certainly took no crap ......

Any thoughts ??

I haven't the same confidence in JC that I had in MT.

Didn't realize that this had been discussed before, although in my defence, it was a few months ago .... my thoughts on this are completely my own beliefs/ideas.

If you were borderline as to whether to vote labour or not, I'm sure this would turn LOTS of people away from Labour.

I still wonder how/why he managed to become the Labour leader .... a real vote loser in my opinion.

[Baldric]

I've never been borderline on whether to vote labour or not,
I've never even considered doing so!

[Peter Pedant]

being politician he would probably say he doesnt deal in hypotheiicals as he is too busy with the current situation - saving babies, fighting terrorism etc

he does come over as rather a wuss tho

his central point is defensible - noone ever achieved diddly squat by bombing aone and that included the Falklands...

PP,that and sinking the Belgrano made a lasting impression...When you start a war it is best that you make sure that you can finish it.

[Peter Pedant]

erm the Belgrano wasnt sunk byy aircraft as far as I recall

and she did put troops on the ground - which is the big bone of contention today and would be less so if Blair hadnt turned out to be such an ickle liar

PP. //noone ever achieved diddly squat by bombing aone//

Ever heard of Hiroshima?

[venator]

I think he got elected because the other candidates were a pretty unattractive bunch of clones

Poorly translated (at this time of night) as " I surrender friend, it is your's for the taking."

PP I didn't say that the Belgrano was sunk by bombing, but it wasn't sunk by 'troops on the ground' either
