I find nuclear weapon questions dumb.
General Election 2017 | Cabinet reshuffle: Hunt re-appointed Health Secretary for record third time
- Thread starter altodevil
- Start date
So you're saying let's put up with this Government because Brexit and to hell with the consequences? this is why May pushed the election button to spread panic knowing she can use that exact line of thinking.
This twat: " It concerns me that you wouldnt you kill millions of civilians"
BURN THEM ALL
Not sure how nuking anyone first makes us any safer.
Corbyn should have asked him if he meant he'd want him to use first strike
Right so we shall be the ones to die instead
"Heaven forbid a Corbyn government" 
Madness. Why aren't people with that kind of view seen as psychopaths?
Some people clearly think that firing a nuke back somehow stops the one being dropped. I'm really not sure why they think this.
It's a silly question but he's dodging it.
I wouldn't say he's been poor, but the audience is much more balanced compared to the Cambridge nonsense on Wednesday night.
Corbyn and May have both been ok with their delivery, but I think May edges it because she's come across more sincere.
Indeed. It's a daft question.
He's messed up on this question
What the feck is it with these nuclear weapons questions? Urgh. So bloody ridiculous. China using nuclear weapons against the UK? Come off it. Utterly ridiculous.
The place is full of warmongers
I don't think a lot of people would agree with that...
Sorry to say but May has done better in this debate
Ten mins on this now.
Yup. Really struggling now.
Iran
British nationalists. Racists.
This is Britain's right wing.
This is Britain's right wing.
This will be the headline tomorrow - disaster.
Well done woman!
What an angel
"If you had been zombified by the nuclear fallout would you be strong and stable enough to drive Trident in to the centre of the earth and press explode?"
He should have just lied.
Irritatingly Corbyn has missed an obvious answer to the question they are trying to needle him with, which is that even if you are imminently threatened by a nuclear weapon how does bombing them prevent that from occurring? It doesn't. It's just millions of eyes for millions of eyes.
Not sure how that helps to be honest.
He looks a bit rattled from that nuclear question.
If he just says, I'll use it in retaliation, the question goes away. 99.9% (touch wood) he'll never have to face that problem.
Well said. "We won't vote for a man who says he won't kill millions of people".
The woman in the audience hit the nail on the head.
"Mr Corbyn will you promise to use the nuclear deterrent, which is still somehow being named a nuclear deterrent despite it not deterring anything if you have to use it?"
Any decent human being should be at the prospect of using them.
That nuclear question was easy to deflect. But he made it tough.
Oh well. That issue knocked the wind out of him totally.
bullshit
Says everything about UK politics that we spent almost 10 minutes on nuclear weapons. How long on climate change?
