This "thing" is the epitome of a generation that believes their point of of view is correct and that anything that vies either left or right is wrong. He does not have the commitment to become a journalist and thus spouts abusive trite to justify his self importance. Anyone with half a brain knows exactly what he is about...an offensive bigot.


Well said sir, that can happen on here as well. Sometimes we just have to aggree to disaggree, and let it go and move on.

When you put it like that, from what I can see he'd fit right in on here.

I can't quite believe what bile some people post on here. Seymour's comments about Simon Weston are completely unacceptable and do not represent anything but that writers own views, but that hasn't stopped some bloggers on here tarring virtually all left wingers with the same brush. No evidence is given to support such claims but when did evidence or reasoned argument ever matter?

Has anyone actually looked at what Simon Weston is supposed to have responded to? This is a right wing rant against Jeremy Corbyn cooked up by the Telegraph based on comments made by Corbyn over two years ago, that don't actually represent Labour Party policy and also don't state that Corbyn wants to hand the Falklands over to Argentina. He simply suggested that seeking negotiated solutions to international problems is better than fighting wars - but then printing the reality behind some concocted rubbishing of a left wing politician would be a step too far for our right wing bigoted press.

As for gassing anyone who expresses views you might disagree with, that's a comment that is beneath contempt!

JM721 is not a "right wing" poster!

With regard to your support of Corbyn's stance on "negotiated solutions, rather than fighting wars"... in 1982 we had no choice - Argentina invaded the Falklands and refused to leave despite being told to do so by the UN.

In 1939 Neville Chamberlain tried your approach by "appeasing" Adolf Hitler and securing Peace in Our Time

Hitler reneged on his promise and showed Chamberlain to be a naïve, dangerous politician that nearly led us to defeat by the Nazis.

Thanks heavens Winston Churchill was there to pick up the pieces.

Corbyn is dangerous too - he naively believes that abandoning our nuclear deterrent is a good thing whilst unstable countries like North Korea and Iran continue to arm themselves.

It is ridiculous to compare Chamberlain's response to Nazi aggression to the Argentine invasion of the Falklands - we did have a choice in 1982, and the US were originally against the idea of a British war to recapture the Falklands.

The willingness to go to war that is often displayed in the UK (particularly by the right wing press) seems to ignore the humanitarian and the political consequences of war. The wars in the Middle East, the instability in Egypt. Iraq, Libya and Syria and the refugee crisis we are now seeing are all the direct consequence of western aggression and warmongering. But it seems that those arguing for a peaceful resolution are considered to be the dangerous ones! What kind of twisted logic is that?

This post is just meaningless rhetoric which has nothing to do with reality.
So if a foreign power fancies a bit of your land, you just let them have it do you ? Or maybe you ask them politely to give it back.

Do behave.

JM's "gassing" comments were inappropriate IMO, regardless of whether in jest or irrelevant of whether he was right or left wing (and I don't think he's either).


Hoof, we are in 2015 not 1982 .The fact we once had little option but to use military action against aggression by a right wing military junta is no reason to suggest negotiated solutions are not desirable,where achievable,rather than fighting wars.It doesn't mean they will always be achievable in each and every situation but to suggest they are not desirable is just plain silly and knee jerk knocking of the maker of the comment (Corbyn) rather than the actual substance of the view put forward.War is a last resort, not a desirable outcome.

viz.negotiated settlement in N Ireland.

viz. negotiated settlement emerging between Kosovo and Serbia

viz. negotiated settlement between Indonesia and East Timor.

Don't be such a patronising prat. You might try reading what I wrote. As for fighting back against invading foreign powers, that's what so many countries have tried to do against Britain over hundreds of years, most recently Iraq. But as others have very sensibly stated, war should be a last resort but sadly that's not usually the case.
