Pillorying Corbyn is beyond disgraceful. Rupert Murdoch is the leading exponent of this muck-raking obsession. His despicable gutter-press Sun is a “pompe à chiasse.”
Such grotesque pantomime is truly shameful; to equate this vulgarity with ethical governance under the rule of law, is a monstrous depravity ~ nothing short of mob rule and extremely reckless.
When the coherent facts eventually emerge, it may well unhorse the current UK regime. Tant pis!
All the noble leader of ‘Her Majesty’s Most Loyal Opposition’ is demanding, are the minimum requirements of accepted jurisprudence, adherence to obligatory due process and scrupulous compliance with all relevant & binding protocols. So…..
Adopt the correct procedure!
Show us the evidence!
Honour our treaties!
Be accountable!
Thank you, David, so very well stated!
Hope you’ve been well. Cheers!
