Jeremy Corbyn Didn't Want ISIS Leader Killed
Fortunately, not everyone can be so easily bought with his false promises.
Jeremy Corbyn faces landslide election defeat as voters say he's 'too incompetent'

I do not believe in killing either; but sometimes it is needed. It'd have been better if he'd been caught alive but too risky.
Corbyn is incompetent, but so is Johnson and Johnson is dangerous.
I can't believe you are talking about 'false promises' - Johnson has made a career out of it. If his lips are moving he's almost certainly lying.

It is difficult to believe that anyone would have the brass neck to call someone else dangerous when comparing that person to Corbyn.
The chances are that Boris will let the Brexiteers down if he gains a majority and this would be damaging for the UK but the UK might as well put on a suicide vest if Corbyn and McDonnell gain power.

I have no idea what "British values" refers to here, given that the UK is made up of 4 different countries, and many different regions and communities within those countries. Not to mention a multi-cultural society developed over several thousand years (bloody Vikings!) .
I suspect that "British values" is really a euphemism for English nationalism, the "Little Britain" mentality.
No thanks.

As Anne rightly says -
Tom Bower has given his book an interesting title: ‘Dangerous Hero’. I would say he is half right. Dangerous yes, but no hero, certainly not to the majority of British people.
Two of Corbyn’s long term allies are repeatedly referred to in the book: John McDonnell and Diane Abbott.
Abbott’s anti-British views have been well publicized. The book quotes her as stating “every defeat of the British state is a victory for all of us”. McDonnell is little better. An avowed Trotskyist, he was a supporter of Trotsky’s “permanent state of unrest” philosophy. What this means in short is that in order to bring down a society, one must create endless problems, stir up division and hatred, pit one against the other until the system collapses, then rule over the rubble.

Nonsense. Its Johnson and Farage who are guilty of sowing division with their crude populism. Its reminiscent of the 1930s.

I used to know some National Front types a long time ago, they used to talk about "British Values". Interesting.

They are not in the same league as the Corbyn lead Labour Party.
The current Labour Party is reminiscent of the 1930s.

I know that anti-Semitism is not a British value, which is much more than can be said about some on the Left.
No one that even considers voting for the Labour Party has British values.

I haven't heard the SNP talk about "Scottish values".

The only thing I could think of that one could claim are UK values are Jude-Christian values given the history of the UK. State Church and all. However this does not really apply to the citizens these days given being religious is not a requirement for citizenship.The UK removed a lot of it's laws regarding religion and citizenship. Anti-Catholic laws for example made it illegal for a Catholic to hold a government office.
A lot of groups claim values. GOP do. Dems do. It isn't something unique.

Before WW2 antisemitism was normal in the UK. Now it is looked down upon. Values change.
