The centre-left are a bit more favourable to it as we had with Blair and as they have in France with Macron and Hollande before him.

I don't really want us to get involved because this is how major conflicts start - one incident in a far off country which we have no direct involvement with but affects the global balance of power. I do accept that in the case of chemical weapons we do have a bit of responsibility though

^ Well said.

tbh I think it's more likely to have been done by "moderates" or rebels in Syria than have been staged.

Thanks, Chuff.

I'm not buying it. Two witnesses could have been bought.
But this bit is very curious:
Quote:

Russia hoped that international monitors from the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), which is due to investigate the circumstances of the incident, will help establish the truth.
Russia needs to make up its mind on OPCW. They questioned OPCW's conclusion on Novichok in Salisbury. So OPCW was "wrong" in Salisbury but will be believed in Syria?

Two thoughts/facts:
1) she does not deserve online abuse (as in actual abuse, like racism or misogyny) being sent her way on Twitter or elsewhere
2) she is an absolute joke of an MP, and especially of a Shadow Cabinet Member, and embarrasses Labour almost every time she opens her mouth

Abbott does the labour party an enormous disservice consistently and the fact that Corbyn considers her a viable home secretary shows clearly that he lacks judgement.

Abbott's comments about the thread TOPIC were brought into the thread which makes any response to them RELEVANT - joshing or otherwise.
