Re: How did Marxist Bob pass his vetting test?
Indeed Denis served, and a hot time he had of it in Italy, but this is about political loyalties. A lot of Communists served, and with great enthusiasm once Hitler was having a go at cuddly Uncle Joe. One can't write about Michael Foot yet, either, because he's still alive.
Later we have a generation of CND traitors, still with us. If I had been the brains in the Kremlin I would have been so happy for the UK to spend squillions on the deterrent, knowing that those in charge of it would never use it. NB Wilson banned MI5 from investigating MPs, and with good reason from his point of view.Dr Johnson: 'Any man thinks less of himself for not having been a soldier, or not having been to sea.'

Vote for the FlagrantViolator party! Our motto: a chicken in every pot, and an icepick in every Trot.
Some third-wave feminists prefer not to call themselves feminists, as the word feminist can be misinterpreted as insensitive to the fluid notion of gender and the potential oppressions inherent in all gender roles, or perhaps misconstrued as exclusive or elitist by critics. Others have kept and redefined the term to include these ideas. Third-wave feminism seeks to challenge any universal definition of femininity.

Re: How did Marxist Bob pass his vetting test?
Nice one, unfortunately we don't have the ice pick option available for Marxist Bob Ainsworth. Difficult to know if he poses a threat to national security, one can only hope he spends his time leafing through Laura Ashley magazines, dreaming of his next home makeover at taxpayers expense.

Doesn't matter what politics Ainsworth has, he is a moderate compared to the lefties in the higher ranks of the civil service MOD/Treasury

Re: How did Marxist Bob pass his vetting test?
I am just trying to work out what is left of Trotsky and Marx, presumably you meet up with the BNP? Rather difficult to understand that last post mushroom. Remember, allegedly, Marxist Bob A did not have his candidature for International Marxist group accepted because he was, errm, too extreme!!
Oh well, nice to know a communist cabal is running Britain..

Though not so credibly as Denis - not much going on in South Africa and Rhodesia back then. Ahh well...'They also serve who only stand and wait'. Originally Posted by BuggerAll
