Who cares about history?
I will not dignify D. A.'s remarks with a response! That is very humble of me!
Lalaland or 'Realpolitik'
"The first duty of any Government is to safeguard its people against external aggression. To guarantee the survival of our way of life. (M. Thatcher, 1976)" = Speech at Kensington Town Hall ("Britain Awake") (The Iron Lady) | Margaret Thatcher Foundation
Only one as dangerously naive as Jeremy Corbyn (in 1990) would disagree. "It is sad that the Minister and many Conservative Members seem to be pretending that the Soviet Union is our enemy. I do not believe that it has ever intended to invade western Europe. That theory was put forward by NATO and the Marshall plan. Today, they are once again seeking to raise the spectre of some Russian menace. A country that lost 20 million people in the second world war fighting fascism is not about to embark on a war against anyone." Source: First Day's Debate - Hansard - UK Parliament.
Do I need to mention Ukraine? Starmer served under Corbyn! And then there was D. Abbott (https://found21.blogspot.com/2025/11/blog-post.html).
We have such short memories! At least we have access to Hansard - at this present time that is!
