Labour under these clowns will destroy many British businesses.
Unemployment will rise rapidly.
Inflation will race quickly into double figures. Productivity will diminish and Local Authorities will become inefficient bloated monoliths again.
They would take any forces out of the middle east, because Corbyn laughably believes ISIS when they blame the recent terrorist attacks in the UK, on UK foreign policy.
So ISIS say get your forces out, do you seriously believe Islamic terrorism in the UK, in Europe and on every continent on this planet will stop ?
This isn't a difficult one for you sunshine or even for your teen idol Corbyn to answer.
Why do you think ISIS want UK and other forces out of the middle east ?
What do they get out of it ?
What happens to the middle east with only ISIS and other middle east warring factions left?
You are aware of the proximity of Syria to Turkey and Turkey to the rest of Europe.
This isn't just a 2 or 3 year plan. The plan will take as long as is required 20 - 50 years or more.
For younger people who have a tendency to think about immediacy rather than long term plans.
