Dr Gloom 21924 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 It’s like the whole nuclear deterrent line we were hearing today. Expect to hear a lot more of that kind of chat in the coming weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5223 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Legitimate question, could Boris Johnson nuke someone without Parliament's say so? Could Corbyn refuse to nuke someone and overrule Parliament? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was the counter offensive notion. i.e. someone nukes us, Corbyn won't nuke back. Putting aside the fact that actually, once you get into that territory, the only purpose of the counter-nuke is revenge and massacre.

NJS 4386 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 I saw a comment from Paul Mason that the future for Labour should be to concentrate on more modern "working class" groups like the low paid workers in the cities as well as nurses, health workers etc and they should leave the hardline europhobe racists behind. I reckon a venn diagram of old, leave/racist, northern labour voters which included the "God bless the queen/nuke em all" camp would be pretty overlapping. I reckon he has a point. BTW did anyone notice how the BBC edited out Johnson looking like a tramp and laying the wreath upside down and substituted old footage? Maybe the cunts should photoshop Michael Foots "donkey" jacket out of history just for balance. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once half the UK is decimated, aren't we kind of done with that war? I mean unless they're actively genocidal, what difference does it make if we nuke them back?

Tom 14011 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 As a man with a fairly worthless degree in film and television production I can tell you they’ll have had to go to some effort to replace that footage with the 2016 equivalent. Fucking “database errors” honestly man. Its Stalinism. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 42459 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Shouldn’t they get a hefty fine and whatnot for political fuckery in an election build up?

ewerk 30620 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Aye but no one would give a shit if it were nuked. In fact having spent time in parts of Glasgow it may already have happened and no one noticed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
