Corbyn did well there. None of his answers were particularly memorable, but the challenge in these interviews is to appear cool under hostile questioning and avoid saying anything damaging, and I think he managed it better than May.

Uh...? "Corbyn would keep doing what we're doing" is a very weird line of argument: https://twitter.com/Conservatives/status/868171259808550915

PriorMarcus posted:I love Corbyn. He's my favourite political leader in years but he's insistence on giving nuanced answers and trying to having a thoughtful discussion doesn't belong on an Andrew Neill BBC One show. He needs to have a mode that is more direct and fierce. Giving nuanced answers radically decreases your chances of saying something stupid that can be turned into a gotcha soundbite. Add that to the fact that you've got to be pretty hardcore into politics to spend half an hour on a Friday night to watch some twat interview a politician twat & I'm not sure there's actually a huge amount of ground to be gained, just a chance to gently caress up. goddamnedtwisto posted:Twitter's finest minds are on the case of Islamic Terror: Same account from later on https://twitter.com/KGHohenstauffen/status/868093178930487297

Corbyn is getting no such lenience. i think may came out of these interviews looking worse even if her questions were softer corbyn looked controlled, may looked defeated. the mask cracked with may. he kept his cool in an incredible manner. of course, how much that matters is unknown yet because how it gets reported will set the narrative for how the interview went, because even though it is on the BBC in prime time, many people won't have seen this interview and will instead read or hear about it tomorrow.

He's none though, no one who lived through that period of argentine history would use the stupid term "dirty war" to refer to the last dictatorship. It's not a term anyone uses except maybe the worst kind of ex-military garbage or Videla-worshipper internet tough guys (there are quite a few of those unfortunately and their rallying cry is "we were better off under the dictatorship").

One thing reinforced by the Andrew Neil interview is that the main lines of attack on Corbyn are still the IRA, Trident and what other Labour MPs have said about him. The manifesto and the campaign so far have given his opponents nothing to criticise.

So Neil said ISIS existed before the Iraq war. Now everything I look up seems to suggest that is completely wrong. Was he just mistaken?

Apparently while Corbyn was being interviewed Fallon was getting royally owned by Guru-Murthy on Channel 4. He gave him a quote about foreign intervention that Fallon thought was from Corbyn, when it was actually from Boris Johnson.

Turns out arming secular socialists and protecting them against our own allies in the region was the answer to defeating ISIS.

ISIS was formed in 2006 during the Iraqi insurgency. It was formed from a number of pre-existing groups and you could argue that some of those existed, in one form or another, prior to the invasion of Iraq but ISIS itself is unquestionably a product of the Iraq war.

No it's a poll commissioned by the Sun, not of Sun readers. We're still 8 points behind and likely to lose seats.

Most right wingers I've come in contact with in my life have been isolationist in some respect. It's liberals you have to watch out for. Whatever animus the hard right has towards the filthy foreigns is generally confined to those within our borders, but liberals want to bomb democracy into them wherever they are in the world.

That isolationism is quite old, and part of the reason America was so slow to join the second world war. I guess modern politics has somewhat skewed the perspective a bit if it seems surprising.
