Diane Abbott XD (page 5)

freddo

I think Diane Abbott is a walking joke for the Labour party. She should stay where she is best. A backbench MP for an inner city borough of London with no further responsibility.

I personally didn't like Neil Kinnock/Tony Blair/Peter Mandelson kind of Labour very much and I certainly don't like Michael Foot/Jeremy Corbyn/Diane Abbott kind of Labour either.

It may not be popular but I liked John Smith/Robin Cook/Gordon Brown type labour. But they seemed to be in the middle in the swing from "loony left" to "Tory lite" and in the middle when it swung back again.

So pls tell me then why you are cheered up by her gaffes when you are feeling depressed? - I can poke fun at a woman without being sexist. I can laugh at a black person without being racist.

This shouldn't really be an issue.

John mcdonnell has made quite a few silly comments in his time too, do you lot think he is only in his position because he is a white man?

John mcdonnell has made quite a few silly comments in his time too - ah but he doesn't have Diane's comic potential, sorry.

do you lot think he is only in his position because he is a white man? - I guess this is what some hard-core feminists believe but I have my doubts. XD

Here is a funny clip involving a white man ...

Abbott and Corbyn were lovers back in the day - what a horrendous mental image that is!

McDonnell is a self-confessed Marxist.

It seems pretty common to have people rise up into significant political positions whilst being clearly unqualified for the role, the majority I can think of throughout history are white men so if we're going to blame skin colour/gender for unqualified politicians I would think we should blame token hand outs to white men first.

if we're going to blame skin colour/gender for unqualified politicians - I don't blame Abbott's skin colour or gender for her unsuitability as a top MP.

Go back and read my posts again.

Luhe, you agreed with Simon she was only in her position because she was a black woman, don't try to gaslight me.
