his stances on so many topics is problematic politically
from what I remember labour's polling went up during the 2017 GE after this intervention - war isn't popular ! (quick check: LAB polling in low 30s at beginning may, this rose to 38-40 by end-may)
important not to let all the tumescent bombast in the press cloud this fact (though appreciate there are wider issues at stake in the current scenario, beyond domestic polling figures)
You know what, maybe stance wasn't the right choice of word.
Basically how he presents the position he is taking.
Take the examples give of the poisoning of the Skripals. His basic point made sense. But his delivery and need to balance all statements ends up weakening his message.
