| | Jack Thompson… Straw Man - Aelon.net |
 | | Sounds like good advice to me. So Jack, take it from me when I say to you that you might have good intentions (doubtful, you are both a lawyer and politician after all) but you are taking the wrong road with it. | | | Jack says my ideas are irrelevant because I’m a gamer, and therefore can’t have any ideas. | | | Yet what jack tompson is pushinf for seems more like a hatred against games, A topic that may not even intrest him makes a perfect debate to get noticed without getting a strong hate back at him for his plain stupidity and single mind paterns he seems so pleased to follow. |

| | UK Foreign Secretary Jack Straw rants against Trotskyism |
| | Indeed, far from being, “a prescient warning about Trotskyist adventurism,” “Left-Wing Communism” offers a startlingly accurate portrait of Labour functionaries like Jack Straw. | | | Straw’s letters have unintentionally drawn attention to this vital contribution made by the Communist Party to the Labour Party and Labour governments in the post-war period. | | | No leading British politician has ever made a similar statement, and it is extraordinary that a foreign secretary who has worked so closely with the United States feels free to do so. |
