Re: General Election called

Sorry Eric, much as I respect your opinion(and vast knowledge of many things), distance means that you have no grasp of the real situation over here.

The malice of the Labour campaign was palpable and for Jeremy Corbyn to make political hay of the failings of Theresa May when she was Home Secretary was plainly despicable(in light of the recent terrorist activities here)...but then what do you expect of a man who lauded the IRA and voted against every single terror law since he became an MP in 1983.

The labour party in general has nothing to be proud of..and the austerity measures were largely because of the fiscal inefficiency of the last Labour government.

I am not sure when you left the UK, or if you have visited recently...but it is a very different place.
So forgive me if I have to disagree with you on this one.


anyway how are you?
