Corbyn calls on May to resign over her role in police cuts.

What a cheeky scamp.


Erm. The public has the opportunity to sack her on Thursday. It's hardly news is it.

Really?

About as newsworthy as any soundbite from Mrs May that's been parroted across the papers for the last month and arguably quite topical at the moment.

If "enough is enough", why cut policing resources to fund tax cuts for big business and why continue to sell arms to Wahhabi regimes?

Aren't these questions allowed to be voiced?

Well done for pointing all that out.

But an opposition leader calling for a Prime Minister to resign is a kind of given, isn't it? You might just as well have a screaming headline "The sun rose in the east this morning".

It's not news.

It's just a great piece of politics IMO. Puts May on the back foot, makes police cuts no1 issue regarding security...

Corbyn hasn't put a foot wrong this election. People saying he isn't a leader, but he's rinsed May in the last few weeks. Just love how a campaign which began as strong and stable ends with calls for her to resign!

Labour are calling for her to resign, not the country. She's 11 points clear in the polls.

What this same Corbyn who at least 13 times since 9/11 has tried to stop the implementation of laws designed to prevent terror attacks ?

And the same Corbyn who a couple of years ago warned treating Britons who travel to join IS in Syria as terrorists, claiming that this was a "Value judgement".

The same Corbyn who has voted 56 times against anti-terror legislation, shared platforms with Islamist fanatics, joined demonstrations to support the IRA bombers and at a Communist congress called for Britain to leave NATO.

There is reality and then there is how you see the world.

No, it's a disgustingly cynical attempt to make gain from the deaths of British citizens at the hands of terrorists. The sort of people he likes to make friends with.
I hope people see sense and rid us of this c***.

Clearly more "Media Lies" that Abbott is blustering and incompetent and has voted 30 times against increasing the authorities powers to fight terrorism, the person Corbyn has put in charge of anti-terror brief.

One of the leading calls for her resignation was Steve Hilton, David Cameron's former director of strategy. So not only Labour.

What happened to your claim that you'd no longer post on this thread?

I'd sooner believe a newspaper which has certain standards it is required to meet for its reporting rather than you.

I'd rather we had appropriate funding for the Police whoever is in charge - Tories are offering more cuts on top of those over which they have already presided. Without adequate Policing simple things like following up on reports from communities where they are suspicious of those who have expressed extremist views gets missed as there is simply not the manpower. Snooping on everyone's emails isn't the answer.

Mrs May just cares about her own job.

By any normal standards she is responsible for these cuts but its worse as she ignored advice that they were not safe and she was ruthless and scornful to senior advisers.

Ministers must realise that they are responsible for their actions and accountable.

A PM can be 'bloody difficult' but you must have judgement.

Enough Mrs May

I am beginning to wonder if you have anything between your ears apart from hot air. we ALL know that it is not all lies and that Corbyn has mixed with some of the most evil enemies and terrorists against our country. I and many ex serviceman actually saw Corbyn on his soap box alongside people like Gerry Adams and Martin McGuiness many times whilst serving in Northern Ireland spouting off that all dead British servicemen was a good thing. Why we were told never to shoot the three of them I will never know. All three of them BAD
news. Corbyn needs to keep his mouth shut about our security as he has tried to disrupt it so many times in his life. Even his own party MP's know his past and would dump him if they could. He is a danger to everyone in the United Kingdom.

 


Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky.

He should know better than say that as Cameron cut all departments money to pay the deficit that Labour left the country in when they got kicked out. May had no choice than to cut down on police as other departments like schools had to cut down. It all boils down to Labour spending spending spending and running up a humungous debt which we are all paying for now.
At the moment the government are recruiting more policeman, more armed forces and at the same time putting more money than ever into counter terrorism which is a thing "our man Corbyn" would keep quiet about. I am afraid this country does not have a secret money tree and all things cost a bomb these days and we cannot just go out and buy it. I am against all the billions we spend on overseas aid but having looked into it, since Theresa May has been Prime Minister she has made it clear we will not send just money BUT personnel to these countries to train and oversee the expenditure which was never done in the past so perhaps we will see something for our money.

And I am only reporting what I have heard and read and I don't read any old 'Rag'.

The budgets have been protected and budget increased for 1,500 armed Police.At the end of the day it is NOT just about numbers but Police powers as well and how they operate.And I stay by what I posted earlier regards Corbyn and Abbott.

Regards Corbyn and the Police, some years ago when he was a senior Labour councillor in Haringey, the local party put up a poster in its office depicting Policeman as pigs wearing helmets. Later the 'Socialist Campaign for a Labour victory" of which Corbyn was a founder publised a manifesto "The capitalist Police are an enemy of the working class". I'm afraid these abhorrent views have shaped much of Corbyn's political career.

Finally, I said I would NO longer post on this thread - just HAD to respond to all the hogwash. I shall now NOT view any more on this thread so won't feel the need to respond and consequently will NOT do so.
