Jeremy Corbyn forced a vote to pause Arms Sales to Saudi Arabia but he was defeated 283 MPs to 193 MPs. (50 SNP MPs supported his motion)

As opposed to idiots who mindlessly praise Castro despite having gay concentration camps, or sorry >"Le gay concentration camps" if that makes it easier for you to ignore it, because of "muh socialist utopia". And no, you're the one guilty of whataboutery: I made the point that Corbyn was hypocritical and inconsistent in opposing certain leaders but not others, which prompted you to start talking about the actions of one of the leaders I named, but when I started talking about the actions of one of those leaders you suddenly started talking about Britain in the 1950s and saying that I was guilty of wataboutery? And please explain, what have I misunderstood? How have I 'misrepresented' history? I never said the UK or other countries didn't have bad records on gay rights. Sure, other people and countries did similarly bad things; but Jeremy Corbyn hasn't then talked about how wonderful those other people are, and so they don't really have anything to do with this. My point the entire time has simply been that it's hypocritical to denounce some dictatorial regime's, but to support other's because they share your political outlook. Thank you for finally admitting that no, those gay people weren't Republicans and you were wrong; but do you still not see that people could possibly be opposed to the sort of regime that would just be able to put people in concentration camps without being "crooks"?
