Because many years later, not doing so could come back to bite you? :thinking:

 

Also, not condemning IRA violence, while calling for nukes to be scrapped, is an inconsistent position.

 

But as a backbencher he was never explicitly asked to condemn the violence. He was condemned for meeting members of SF in the 1980s. Reality was the government were doing this secretly 😂.

 

It's that idiotic (mainly English right wing) view that the IRA were bad but the British forces were defeating terrorists that annoys me. So simplictic with no understanding of the Irish conflict whatsoever.

Confirmed by the BBC that IDS is going to get a knighthood. in the NY Honours list. What for? A failed party leader, only one to never fight an election as far as I know. Presided over Universal Credit which has been a disaster.

You said it chris!

BTW, have people actually added votes to this threads poll *after* the election - the numbers look different? :unsure:

Lol, bit pointless that. Maybe it's time to close the thread. We can post similar comments in another thread on here now the elections over.

The weird thing is, the late voters still didn't reflect the actual result. :wacko:

DELETED.

Going to close the topic now that the election is well and truly over.
