Re: June 8th General Election

I see that Labour and defence don't add up either - here's the white van Baroness saying one thing and the Shadow Defence Secretary saying another:

Quote:
Shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry was "wrong" to suggest Labour might drop its commitment to the UK's nuclear deterrent, the party's defence spokesman has said.
Nia Griffith told BBC Newsnight it was "already settled" that Trident would remain if the party came into power.
Ms Thornberry had suggested support for the missile system could not be guaranteed following a defence review.
Conservative Bob Neill said Labour would put the UK's "security at risk".

Looks like Abbott's understanding of party 'unity' is about as sound as her grasp of basic maths. I wouldn't trust a party led by a someone who's been a member of CND since 1966 and served as vice chairman and vice president with our nuclear deterrent anyway because if he gets in power all bets are off.
