Get The Kettle On....

What planet is she on?

What an idiotic statement! Can't you just tell they have never been in the armed forces and up the sharp end!

Surely it's called context, Naomi? Something we're all guilty of missing at times -- here the context is that she was being more than a little satirical. Perhaps that was ill-judged, but it is true that the current approach isn't working. Where I'd disagree with her is that the current approach is really neither one thing nor the other, rather than being too focused on military tactics. We haven't committed to tackling the threat of ISIS.

Jim, like Corbyn, she appears to be suffering under the delusion that maniacs can be stopped without military intervention. She’s wrong. IS doesn’t negotiate or compromise.

well they are in bed with the IRA, so ISIS just just a small leap!

[CrapAtCryptics]

Every time Labour open their collective mouth they put their foot in it and make themselves increasingly unelectable. They could at least attempt to be a viable opposition party.

And did the Telegraph also invent this?

/// Ms Shawcroft went on: “Now I mean, you know, maybe we should try it! Bombing them and attacking them has got us nowhere, why don't we get the teabags out?

“You know I did read a while ago about when the EDL were going round picketing outside mosques... One particular mosque in the Midlands somewhere just opened the doors and said would you like to come in for a cup of tea?

“And they went in for a cup of tea and now they're friends with the EDL. Straight away the EDL are now like oh, well actually these people are not the monsters you know that we're being told all this time, they're actually human beings that you can sit down and have a cup of tea with.

“So you know I think we should bear in mind that having cups of tea might actually be the best kind of system of defence and national security that you could have, but there we are.” ///

Liking ISIS to the English Defence League, is she not completely off her rocker?

As a voter of Labour for many years, I sincerely hope Corbyn NEVER ever becomes PM !
