OK, I'll make it simple with one example: THE FALKLANDS WERE INVADED.
What use were nuclear weapons there ?

So you think the Falklands should have nuked Argentina?When did Argentina become a nuclear power?Did the Germans ship some of their A-bombs over on one of their special Nazi flying saucers?

So we get rid of nuclear weapons and Iran,Pakistan,North Korea,Israel,etc will all follow suit?

The majority of the world’s countries don’t have nuclear weapons and they seem to get along just fine.

That wan't the question, you buffoon, the question was :
An answer being, The Falkland Islands.
If you want more, then have a read about the 1999 Kashmir invasion (both sides with nuclear weapons).
I would like to see the evidence that the Labour Party is any less or more Anti-Semetic than the general population. Recent events seems a less than subtle smear campaign orchestrated by the Tory supporting press and Anti-Corbyn/LFI members in the Labour Party. I think most people of capable reasoning will see this regardless of their feelings on Corbyn's suitability as leader.

Labour would be stupid to put in a long - term replacement now. They should bide their time until the autumn when Deal or No Deal will be sorted., then they should ditch Corbyn and have Tom Watson in as caretaker and let him change Labour's position to a Second Referendum. After that point they should bring in Starmer or Umunna.

Tom Watson and his traitorous cohorts won't even be in the Labour Party by then, they will be in their new Centrist party led by their messiah Chucka Immuna
If anyone is interested in understanding how Israel interferes/influences British Politics and weaponises anti-Semitism then have a watch of this 4 part undercover doc. First part here https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ceCOhdgRBoc&t=1269s

Tell me how they are relevant if the nation has been totally destroyed?
Your examples of attacks on nuclear countries are by individuals and small groups not foreign govenments with massive firepower.
If you believe that no other country would ever want to invade us then you have to ignore all the history for the last thousand years. There have been so many wars in the last 60 years on this planet but nobody has said "I know let's invade Russia, America, France, China or GB." Yes there are countries that get by just fine but most of them have very strong alliances with a nuclear power. Alliances don't last forever though so it's a mistake to relay on them.
An imbalance in power if not in your favour is a massive gamble.

Don't know about the along just fine bit. Internal and external struggles almost all over the globe.
It would be great if nukes could be un-invented, but whilst aggressive adversaries of the free world have them or are working towards having them, a deterrent must be maintained.

And you really are a patronising ********. FYI India was the country invaded, has nuclear weapons and didn't use them.

India were not attacked with nukes,they were attacked by a bunch of fanatics trying to provoke a full scale war.But India has a professional military,and thought let's have a bit of practise,wipe out these amateurs,job's a good 'un,home for tiffin and polo by teatime.Absolutely no need for nukes,or to sink the Pakistan Navy.Sorry if I come across as patronising,the services can make people seem that way.

The extent of anti-Semitism in the Labour Party, and just what the applied definition of it is, is largely unknown. I've personally never witnessed it from Labour supporters- although I am in no doubt it is present (so I don't need examples).
This will roll on and get deeper though. I suspect less because of the problem itself and more because the right wing press have a large bone.
It seems ironic that Corbyn, a dedicated campaigner against racism all his life, is being pilloried by a press for whom subtle racism is an ongoing pastime.

Completely agree. Tories aren't great but Corbyn is a disaster. Really horrible nasty old school communist .

I think those in politics on the left need to take a very hard look at themselves and not blame the right wing press.

It just shows how certain people are using this as simply a tool to hurt Labour, if they were really concerned they would be against any kind of racism

Corbyn is as pro Brexit as Rees-Mogg and Farage. He wants closer ties with Russia. Russia doesn't want a strong EU.
The Irish border question will help another of his aims of a united Ireland.
Corbyn wants to hand the Falklands 'back' to Argentina, despite Argentina never owning them in history.
The Tories are a big fat mess at the moment but so are Labour.
