Makes no difference who is in power, one of Her Majesty's Senior Coroners requested the review. In legal terms that's the same as being requested by a Law Lord. You don't ignore those requests...
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Guns dont kill people. Dads with pretty Daughters do...!

"The EU gun ban will come into force in the UK in early 2019".

Anyone else remember how before last years EU referendum various sectors of the shooting community were pushing people to vote leave so that we'd be well out of the EU by the time the new EU gun law came into effect?

Do you really think Comrade Corbyn and his Leftist mates will allow you the freedom of firearms? The vast majority of his supporters and his looney shadow cabinet are enthusiastic about taking everything off of us.

Comrade Trotsky was quite clear that the workers should be armed to overthrow the state if it deviated from the correct path. Comrade Corbyn has not followed the correct ideology in this matter if he and the other comrades seek to ban weapons.
Careful now/that sort of thing

Not sure what Labour would do. 'Conservatives', however, have history.

yup of being pushed into a ban (by Labour) in the run-up to an election they actually lost, followed by Labour increasing the scope of the ban to include .22 rimfire pistols (not in the original ban as considered legitimate sporting equipment)

Stalin you mean? He was not a fan of an armed populace, not much doubt on that.
