It doesn't matter how Assad was seen prior to the war in Syria, guilt isn't assumed. Benefit of the doubt before the crime is committed and all that. You can't blame people for not knowing something was going to happen. That's not rational.

Possible nonsense and sorry to say so.

His human rights record from first taking over seemed to get worse.

Not barking up any wrong tree at all,you dive into any issue against Labour far easier than you do as to the Cons.

That's your right and choice but you'll find you will get disagreement as to the possible unfairness of that.

This is about Labour's manifesto costings anyway,Assad has nothing to do with that or in fact the Irish issues of decades ago.

To get back to the thread point,Labour's plans are costed,we have no clue as to even what the Cons intend to do or costings.

Yes Labour will possibly be left with a shortfall 'if' their tax plan changes don't meet the targets.
However even that shortfall is only likely to be 8 billion so not insurmountable.

The re nationalisation plans are what cannot be fully assessed as the timetable as franchises end will determine costs needed.
Whether nationalisation or remaining privatised, in the end according to the IFS, have little major effect as to growth and the economy.

Nationalisation would in the long run mean controlling more easily pricing for the services, remaining privatised will maintain the status quo more likely as now as to likely more rising costs.
That's the choice voters need to make.
