I'm just against the idea of turning this situation into a popularity contest which it's rapidly becoming. |

That says a lot about the times we're living in all on its own, in my opinion. |

She's handled this situation well so far but I don't think that makes her the leader we need going forward, it doesn't change her myriad of mistakes. It's one incident and not one that will define either party going forward. |

I also disagree with the last sentence.
Most people will rise to the challenge in times of crisis but you see a person for who they truly are in the small moments when they aren't forced to act in a certain way. |

The language in this conflict is getting less and less diplomatic.
Williamson, defence secretary told Russia to shut up and go away. Russian defence ministry replied: "The extreme level of the intellectual impotence of the head of the British Ministry of Defence Gavin Williamson was clearly demonstrated today by his rhetoric - of a vulgar old harpy". Now, I don't know about vulgar harpy, but Williamson is not old. Also, Russian media is floating a theory that the Skripals were poisoned by the Brits in order to pick a fight with Russia and turn attention away from Brexit.

It's a shame you lack objectivity.

This is what I want from a statesman, not reactionary knee jerks or insults like Gavin Williamsons 'Go away and shut up'.... :/

not all russians are evil, just Putin and his regime
he is not suited for presidency, but then again neither is Trump so Russia & America are now similar to each other

Why, cause i firmly support may in this?
Suddenly anyone supporting may in this lacks objectivity? Wow, go back to your life hating, go back to laughing about a poisoning, go back to laughing about the possibility of a cold war. Judge yourself before others, some people need to look deep inside themselves.. Lack objectivity my arse. |

We are already in a Cold War. It was re-launched in 2014 over the Ukraine. This attempted assassination incident has just stepped things up a notch. Russia has been receiving sanctions from the West for the last few years. Why else would Putin be telling the Russian people that they are under attack from the West?

After a smidge of condemnation yesterday it looks like Jeremy is sneaking back to his original stance. I wonder if this incident and his behaviour towards it will be where he shoots himself on the foot.

The Guardian: Corbyn backed May’s decision to expel 23 diplomats, but suggested a financial crackdown on Russian oligarchs would be more effective.
“We agree with the government’s action in relation to Russian diplomats, but measures to tackle the oligarchs and their loot would have a far greater impact on Russia’s elite than limited tit-for-tat expulsions,” he said. The shadow chancellor, John McDonnell, also pledged to “hammer” money-laundering, saying that would be a more effective weapon against Vladimir Putin’s regime than expelling diplomats. He's basically saying what many said from day one of this nightmare. It may well of been the Russian government... an order from the embassy. It likely was but it could also of been carried out by any one of the oligarchs who reside here and therefore, until the investigation reaches a conclusion, I don't think anyone should be making snap decisions. Cold War is only called 'cold' because its not physical but a Cold War has the potential to become a 'Hot War'.

Corbyn would defend Putin.
Anyway Russia wouldn't be able to cope with starting a war because they have pissed off every single country they have no allies
