Take s a 7 to 10 mile radius out so 220 would take most of russia out dont need 4000


That sounds like a much better deterrent than scrapping trident and preying Russia doesn't nuke you because you can't nuke them back.

I think that has gone straight over your head! :shock:

"Corbyn a Threat to national security due to not supporting the Armed Forces and Trident"

Once again, I ask you or anyone, how does 215 Nuclear Warheads prevent Russia's 4490 (estimate) nuclear warheads from hitting us?

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/mar/31/mod-facing-1bn-a-year-funding-shortfall

It does'nt stop them from hitting us. It makes them think twice before using them though. That is why it is called a deterrent.

Exactly but corbyn wants to get rid of it ffs the guy us a clown ,open borders,no defence policy,links to terroist the guy is a threat the looney lefties are deluded to thonk otherwise


"Open Borders" - Tories have seen a year on Year rise since 2010 of immigration into the country, considering our borders have "never been open" due to us not being part of Schangen Agreement.

"No Defence Policy" - Tories have seen a year on year Cut to defence since 2010, now down to as low as 1.8%, compared to the 5.2% in 2010.

"Links To Terrorism" - Tories have had a constant link to Saudi Arabia that it sells arms to, that then sell onto ISIS and other terrorist organisations. Remember, it was Corbyn who voted against Bombing Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Libia & Yemen... not May. Which then led to the rise of ISIS.


"Deterant" is one word that Trident is not. It's a known fact that our subs are currently out of action due to a machanical fault (was in the daily fail just 2 weeks ago). Russia do not care about us little englanders. Noticed how in this current dispute with North Korea, the U.K. has not been mentioned ONCE. We're totally irrelevant to the outside world.

So Labour are perfect corbyn is god and those torries are so bad :lol: labour didnt have an open border policy when in power?didnt sign away our sovereignty? Didnt start multiple wars ? Ffs you loonies dont half speak bollocks and turn a blind eye when it doesnt fit in with ypur agenda ffs


Let's do this bullet point for you understand my answer, seeing as you have STILL failed to answer my original 4 questions. Last one before bed as I have to get up and work to pay my Taxes tomorrow :thumbright:

Schangen Has been in place by the EU. The UK is exempt from this deal which keeps a "closed door" policy. The policy also sees the U.K. Border being in France, rather than South England. British Border agencies are stationed in France, while EU border agents are stationed in Dover.

Harold Macmillan (Conservative) was the one That first wanted to take us into the EU but failed (Granted it wasn't in its current form), it was then Harrold Wilson (Labour) that managed to get us in in 1975, with 65% of the country voting for it.

The Government started numerous wars and got us into numerous wars on false pretences. Tony Blair should be tried for war crimes and locked up :thumbright: . Once again, Jeremy Corbyn voted against both Wars during Labours 13 years.



Fancy that for a load of bullocks eh. :occasion5:

It's been said that if your not a socialist at 20 you haven't got a heart and if you are a socialist at 30 you haven't got a brain. While obviously not entirely true it's a saying with some merit.
We are obliged to spend 2% of GDP on defence, (Conditions of NATO membership) if it wasn't spent on Trident it would be spent on other forms of weaponry .

Corbyn is the first politician in living memory who actually feels genuine and trustworthy. He then gets criticised for saying what he thinks on subjects like Trident because of his honesty and integrity. Would you lot rather he lied through his back teeth to get your votes (like the tories)??

There are more pressing concerns in this country than spending 40billion on renewing a weapon that in reality can never be used.

A well reasoned debate is not what you'll get on here.And you must remember that name calling is the standard rebuttal technique used by many when they can't counter your argument.The biggest threat from Russia at the moment is nuclear poison rather than nuclear missiles.The amount of 40yr old nuclear subs and warheads that are degrading to a dangerous state is more alarming than any russian missile pointed at Cardiff.Luckily the russians are giving many to the americans so they can recycle them in their power stations.The biggest threat from the russians towards us will be their hoolies in next years world cup. :lol:

Of course if he did changes his mind and came out and said that we should renew Trident the press would then vilify him and portray him as being untrustworthy for going back on his word. It's not in Rupert Murdoch (and friends') interests to have a true socialist anywhere near the reigns of power.

Excellent post Sneggyblubird the message board Tory boys simply reflect the national party in that they don't directly answer questions they just throw insults to deflect. Afan has ask 4 question in several posts and has received ZERO answers but instead predictably a flood of insults.

I honestly believe Labour won't win the election but I also believe the Tories won't get the landslide they are hoping for. Staying silent on their policies and just slagging off the opposition will only last for so long before the electorate wake up and start doubting Mrs. May. She will be so damaged by the failure to get that landslide that her Government will slide into chaos within 12 months, especially if criminal charges are brought against the Tory MP's who broke funding rules in the 2015 election and mass by-elections are needed.

By then Corbyn will be gone and hopefully someone like Yvette Cooper will be in charge of Labour and the fight back will be well under way :thumbup:

its not just trident its everything. and the press vilify everyone for whatever todays flavour is.its part of being in the public eye.
does trustworthy really mean he can never change his mind even when deep down he might know he was originally wrong ? people want politicians to listen as well as lead. and a good politician who wants to do any good and make the world a better place will know that a better place for everyone might not be 100% what their own personal ideology is. so you ditch the unpopular stuff to get
some or most of your ideas into reality. this basic political train of thought seems to be beyond Corbyn.

Sorry,but i think your being a bit blase and patronising.Politicians by default are dogmatic and their rigid views are often what carries them and defines them in political life.Thats why its so difficult to get a yes or no answer to any question posed to them especially if they haven't had the chance to gauge public opinion first.Corbyn is not my idea of a political leader but the very reason he was elected as leader of the labour party was because of the overwhelming support he had from the rank and file grass roots support.This was underlined by the laughable attempt to oust him by another vote.His is,without doubt a dangerous figure for the Tories and its little wonder that they chose to argue and campaign on personallity rather than policy as I think trying to discredit him shows weakness of belief in their own policies.I think the man does have integrity because he believes in what he says without having to consult a PR machine first.If he can shift the agenda to include the NHS,employment,social care etc then he may have a chance as no-one but an idiot can argue that austerity as a policy has been a massive failure as we are more in debt now than when the banks crashed.Christ even feckin Trump knows this.The Tories want to keep this about Brexit but I'm not sure they can.

and does anyone REALLY think us having nuclear weapons is what is really stopping someone from Nuking us ? remember America is the only nation to ever use Nuclear weapons (in WW2) (I believe the A-Bomb is considered a nuke). i remember reading something before which stated even if say "Country A" launched a nuclear weapon in modern times, there isn't anything we can do to stop it, as if we blew the nuke up mid air, radiation would be devastating.

A nuclear deterrent is not defence it is a reaction to an attack from another state whoever it may be, waste of money and obsolete in this age as it is purely used to react to an attack and will not stop the UK being wiped out so it is not DEFENCE.

Remember the Tory elite have obliterated our armed forces down to an almost non existant capability, so much so that we could no longer take the Falklands back if Argentina had the capability to take it, no doubt the Tory will blame Labour as they always do. I am not a fan of Corbyn because of his links with Hamas and the IRA but it is a Tory government that puts other countries before our own such as Saudi, Qatar etc who all have links with terrorism.

Personally I really dont know who to vote for because they all lie.

There are more pressing concerns in this country than spending 40billion on renewing a weapon that in reality can never be used.

Corbyn seems to think that once he has said something he can then never ever change his mind .that is not integrity. or does it even mean he is being honest even with him self. it just makes him westminsters version of roath.


Sorry,but i think your being a bit blase and patronising.Politicians by default are dogmatic and their rigid views are often what carries them and defines them in political life.Thats why its so difficult to get a yes or no answer to any question posed to them especially if they haven't had the chance to gauge public opinion first.Corbyn is not my idea of a political leader but the very reason he was elected as leader of the labour party was because of the overwhelming support he had from the rank and file grass roots support.This was underlined by the laughable attempt to oust him by another vote.His is,without doubt a dangerous figure for the Tories and its little wonder that they chose to argue and campaign on personallity rather than policy as I think trying to discredit him shows weakness of belief in their own policies.I think the man does have integrity because he believes in what he says without having to consult a PR machine first.If he can shift the agenda to include the NHS,employment,social care etc then he may have a chance as no-one but an idiot can argue that austerity as a policy has been a massive failure as we are more in debt now than when the banks crashed.Christ even feckin Trump knows this.The Tories want to keep this about Brexit but I'm not sure they can.


you believe he got voted in by rank and file LABOUR voters...lol..your as daft as he is.
why do you think there was this huge surge in membership. yes i know they said they had thrown the fake tory members out but it takes single figure brain cells to see how impossible that is when you have no idea what a person votes to start with.
he is the ideal labour candidate if you dont want labour. an extremist traitor.


Not daft,I just don't accept the Tory media as gospel.The rules of the Labour Party clearly state that you have to be a member in order to take part in the leadership election.I prefer to believe that enough Labour supporters wanted a say in choosing their leader to enroll,yes some tories must have signed up but not enough to affect the outcome,to think that is a bit erm ...daft.And if talking to a terrorist makes you a terrorist then all the politicians that took part in the peace process are themselves including the then President of the USA terrorists.There are many on here that are sympathetic to the Palestinian plight against the Israelis yet they are governed by a Terrorist organisation,does that make all the people on here terrorist sympathisers. You can surely see where your argument takes you.

Having a "Nuclear Deterrent" doesn't essentially mean that we won't get attacked. It simply means we will attack those who attack us first.

To put it in simpler terms, 2 people stood in Petroleum, holding a match daring eachother to drop theirs first. Either way, both countries are going up in smoke.

Why can't the UK lead the way in Nuclear Disarmament? Why do we always have to act like Billy big ballocks. And by the way, while Nato states we must sound 2% ofor GDP, we've only sent 1.8%.

If you have two people soaked in petroleum, unless they are completely insane neither are likely to drop that match. As far as leading the way in scrapping these weapons are concerned, you have already said that Russia are not interested in little England.

Its been an absolute pleasure. Now bore off.

It completely astounds me that you find the defence of your country a bore,I'm sure your father or grandfather did not find it boring when they fought for their country

Exactly, so why not lead the way and get disarming our nuclear weapons?

As said, who would want to go and hold a match in the first place? Why is Corbyn being attacked for not wanting to drop that match.

The world would be far safer if nobody had them. Like it or not, countries have them, and countries like N Korea are developing them. The reason Corbyn is being attacked is because he would be the one soaked in petrol with the other person holding the match, and his only means of defence would be begging for his life. May work, and the other person may spare him in exchange for his house.

He was certainly voted in by this NEWLY joined rank and file Labour voter via my Union membership and only mr Corbyn could have stirred
Me into such action
