Weren't those aims a direct result of us invading and stealing their country by force?

I don't condone the IRA & obviously it's hard to separate the two when people want to score points like you are. However the only way to peace was always going to be JC's way, rather than how the Conservatives wanted to play it out.



Are you saying that if two distinct groups support the same cause that they can't be distinguished between? Because we know there are some xenophobic leave supporters, what does that say of the rest? Are they xenophobic sympathizers? You can't have your cake and eat it.

Thatcher sent JC as a clandestine to start behind the scenes talks with Sinn Fein ...

Isn't the content true, as shown in other publications? So try playing the ball and not the man please or can't you do that because you know the ball was true?

Some of the content may be true, I'd need to check in detail, but the "journalist" is extremely biased and cannot be considered neutral, he's a Tory working for a Tory paper. His sources are hardly neutral, a DUP MP for example.


I wonder if he reported on Maria Gatland?

Andrew Paul Gilligan is a British policy adviser and journalist, currently transport adviser to the Prime Minister

After resigning from the BBC, Gilligan was offered a job at The Spectator by its editor, Boris Johnson, who had been a key supporter of Gilligan during the Hutton Inquiry. Later that year Gilligan joined the London Evening Standard. He was named Journalist of the Year at the British Press Awards in 2008 for his work on the London Mayoral elections, described as "relentless investigative journalism at its best".

In January 2013, Gilligan was appointed as the Cycling Commissioner for London by the Mayor, Boris Johnson. Accusations of "cronyism" were made following the appointment as Gilligan was considered instrumental in toppling the Mayor's main rival Ken Livingstone

Corbyn does seem to have a fixation with terrorists. I can’t help thinking that he gets a vicarious thrill from associating with them.

Except he doesn't and hasn't. Or do you have some (reliable) source to support these allegations?

I'll answer for you, no you don't.

The BBC is incredibly biased but it's a good source to see the other side. I don't like the idea that my TV license goes towards the tripe they spout but my wife enjoys to watch TV and I wouldn't deprive her of her simple pleasures.

So you're ducking my point that they are a news organisation which appears to have a (maybe unconscious) bias for Remain?

Unconscious? I think the bias is very conscious, and very obvious no?

I think it may be unconscious. As in, it's so 'blindingly obvious' to the media luvvies that Brexit will be a disaster/Armageddon/disturb their pleasant way of life that everything they hear, think or say is through a Remainer prism without the need for conscious thought.
