Will the Boris Johnson "punishment beating" tape damage the Tories?
Boris Johnson, who was sacked twice by employers for dishonesty, is on tape arranging to have a journalist beaten up.
So far, he has kept a low profile during the election campaign. I am surprised the tape hasn't damaged the Tories much yet.

Probably because it is over 4 years old.

They had that conversation in 1990. Jeremy Corbyn has been grilled about what he said about the Falklands war 35 years ago. And conspiring to have someone beaten up is a crime.
It is a little different. Having someone beaten up is pretty bad, but supporting terrorists and those looking to attack Britain is far worse.

BoJo is an idiot, at times.
Corbyn's views and affiliations with terrorist organisations jeopardises the security of the entire country.
And, can you imagine having Diane Abbott as Home Secretary

The British army themselves are terrorist.

Another person who doesn't know what terrorism is!

The same right wing morons who bash Corbyn about being associated with the IRA are now defending Boris because it's "4 years old".
Tories are the most hypocritical and sanctimonious morons around.

The way the british army acted many times in the past makes them just as bad as terrorist.

Well, accuse them of War crimes, not terrorism.

Are you insinuating that one Jeremy Corbyn is? Because you are terribly mistaken. Viewing the other side of a conflict is what makes a great leader, the US and UK are not always the Hollywood heroes the press make us out to be. Case point, 'in no way is there an excuse for the acts at Manchester' [loose quote from Corbyn] then May responds with 'there is no excuse for terrorism Corbyn', bang, it seems Corbyn is making excuses for terrorists, a Prime Minister would not lie! Hmph.
Regardless, selling arms openly to a nation using them in warfare linked to terrorist activity, ie. Saudi Arabia is more 'in support of terrorists' than anything Corbyn has done. Do some research beyond the Sun, BBC, Daily Mail etc., as hard as that may be these days.

Jeremy Corbyn has never supported terrorists.

He has never been affiliated with terrorist or proscribed organisations.
He is not a thug. Boris Johnson demonstrably is.
