Read articles like the Terrorist one and they bore me to tears. Clearly you don't actually listen to people like Noam Chomsky or John Pilger, I do, and I would imagine they are far more knowledgeable than the person who wrote that nonsense, but we'll agree to disagree.

Well said! It is the failed handling of the situation, repeatedly that is the issue. And by doing so gives out a very wrong message. The media isn't to blame for that, it is entirely self-inflicted.

almost anyone can see it’s a tactic being employed by the Tories.

make JC the boogeyman (he is far worse) and tell everyone the only way to defeat the boogeyman is to vote Tory.

I don’t think they are actually scared of him. I mean he is a student that never grew up, my 7 year old could come up with better policies than him.

I really fail to see how anyone can take him and McDonnell seriously. Unless they are arrogant Marxists who believe everyone else that tried Marxism didn’t do it properly and they know best and it won’t lead to tyranny.

One of the many apparent issues with terrorism was/is Corbyn's opposition to numerous pieces of new legislation designed to combat and/or investigate terrorism more readily.
That, coupled with numerous public proclomations about his apparent support for terrorist groups; e.g.:

At the height of the Irish Troubles, Corbyn, who was at that time a hard-Left backbencher and a thorn in the side of successive leaders, spoke at commemorations to honour dead IRA terrorists.In 1968 he was arrested after taking part in a protest by IRA sympathisers in demonstrating "solidarity" with, among others, Patrick Magee, who was later convicted of murdering five people in the 1984 Brighton bombing. They included the Conservative MP Sir Anthony Berry.He appears, at least on the face of it, to support groups such as the IRA much more than he condemns them, hence the 'terrorist sympathiser' tag.

We thought the same in the last election. Unfortunately, he did better than expected because May was so terrible. Is Boris faring better?

No. Boris is not doing very well:

1. He's a bit of a political bully.
2. He has no majority in parliament.
3. He's lazy.
4. Although he is clever, he favours the easy option.
5. He's not a popular leader.
6. Many people think he is not to be trusted.
7. He has been accused of lying and misleading many times.

I think the results of the election will stretch a few eyes.

Whilst it did make me laugh, it is sadly a very good and concise summary.

Could you scribble out the naughty word? then it will be fine.
