Why am I not surprised. You can never trust a Marxist, especially with the economy and the defense of our country. Hope all the useful idiots that voted for Corbyn and his sinister henchmen feel suitable embarrassment at their stupidity ��

The Press have let him have a little play whilst in opposition and will gradually increase the exposures as we approach the elections, leaving the right amount of time for all the Labour in fighting to peak

Left-wing politician met with diplomat from left-wing country, and gave him a NEWSPAPER CUTTING, one of those really high-level pieces of classified documentation. The current Czech authorities say there is absolutely nothing in this. Forgive me if I don't question everything I believe in over this.

That bit did make me laugh.

If this was a few hundred years ago, and if found guilty of treason, he would have been hung, drawn and quartered. Very messy.
Does the law at the time apply on this ? As the cold war was before 1998 does the hangman need to find his noose ?

If this is true....
He could put in court for treason and executed.
I would say put his head on a pike on London Bridge but it might scare the tourists.
No leave him alone we don't want martyr.

He could move to brighton momentum will protect him.:whistle::shrug::drama:

European Human Rights Laws prohibit the death penalty

The last executions in the United Kingdom were by hanging, and took place in 1964, prior to capital punishment being abolished for murder (in 1965 in Great Britain and in 1973 in Northern Ireland). Although unused, the death penalty remained a legally defined punishment for certain offences such as treason until it was completely abolished in 1998. In 2004 the 13th Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights became binding on the United Kingdom, prohibiting the restoration of the death penalty for as long as the UK is a party to the Convention

Desperate, deranged, Right-wing smears against Corbyn - yet some idiots will believe it, because it suits their anti-Left agenda.

When it comes to politics, NSC does seem to be full of permanently offended, goady, frothing-at-the-mouth, Right-wingers; working-class Tories. I have to check I've not logged in to the Sun or Express by mistake!

I've never met a socialist who supported the vile regime in the Soviet Union; it was the antithesis of equality and democracy. There was nothing socialist about the Soviet Union or its satellite states in Eastern Europe. The ruling elites ruthlessly exploited the workers, and lived a life of luxury while the workers starved - a Tory heaven, surely?

The Right have always used this smear though: wanting to live in a fairer society = being a Commie = being pro-Soviet Union.

It saves the Right from having to address the obscene inequalities, poverty wages, unaffordable housing, and crumbling public services that 35 years of Right-wingery and worship of the 'free market' have left us with, along with flogging off our industries and services to foreigners; very patriotic!

Fake news.

Oh, and this has been done before, back in 1924, when the Daily Mail was frantically trying to prevent the election of a Labour Government
