    I lived through the Troubles. I was in London during the [IRA] bombings. I know what a terrorist organisation is.

    That’s a very good point actually, what we typically think of as terrorism is acts of violence against people, not property damage.

    The next election in the UK will be fascinating to watch.

      The only people terrorised by property damage are rich assholes… So makes sense that the definition widened.
