Although I believe in community and are sympathetic to a number of Labour policies...I simply cannot get past the IRA support.

 

I will never ever vote for a man whose friends thought it 'just' to kill a three year old out buying a card for his mother...nor the poor lad who died with him.

I know people close to the victims forgave...but I never will.

 

I do not think I am alone in thinking that.

I reckon most parents with kids will feel the same.

So you are basing your voting preferences on something that you read on the internet that isn't true?

 

Doesn't that make you look a bit foolish?

So those two kids weren't murdered then?

 

Perhaps I am foolish to base my voting preferences on things I read, as perhaps I do not have such a refined credibility filter as yourself.

 

I guess however we are all foolish to some extent....didn't some loon suggest a while back, that we could still maintain some submarines as a deterrent, but save a few bob on the missiles?

 

Can't remember his name....

[melthebell 863]

Unfortunately he is perceived to have done so...reinforced by the company he has kept over the years.

 

Perception is everything.

 

At one point I perceived Tony Blair to be a new type of politician and was persuaded to vote for him...

Now I know better.

 

Back then I perceived politicians as generally honest people, who at least were trying to make the world a better place.

Now after shelling out for their flipped houses, broken pipes under tennis courts and moat drainage, I think otherwise.

Especially as they do not honour the promises they were elected on.

Call be old fashioned, but if I promise to do something...I do it.

 

They are all in it for the power and the money...why else would they study the subject at University, unless expecting some career payback?

 

Politicians should be born, not trained...

Give me a Dennis Skinner over an Yvette Cooper or a David Cameron any day...at least the guy knows something of the world outside politics.

So now you are saying that you wouldn’t vote For him because Jeremy Corbyn is perceived as a supporter of the IRA?

 

That makes you look even more foolish.
