and it's always the side which fights against our interests
TBF most of the time "our interests" are pretty shitty as a country, you could say he's tried to broker peace from the position of our interests, as a man who actually worked for the government, with those who the said interests tend to harm. Sitting down with the loyalists wouldn't really have been necessary if they're already on side with the UK government.

With respect, I knew someone would make this point, which is why I covered it in my original response:
Again and again, Corbyn's 'peace making' only ever involved meeting the anti-west side of things. He's met with every dodgy terrorist group going in Palestine - don't recall him ever sitting down with the Israeli contingent, do you? He met up with the IRA guys an awful lot - don't remember seeing him brokering any meetings with any loyalists, though, do you? His meeting with bad people only ever extends to one side of the debate, and it's always the side which fights against our interests.
