Diane Abbott

I maybe putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with 5, I hope I am anyway

I wonder if there is any colleration between her resigning yesterday and our urgent need for center backs?

[staffordshire canary 0]

None what so ever !! She''s left wing !!

Her reading of the game is unparalleled and her fee wouldn''t be so bad so more money we could plough into revitalising scampi portions at the Gunn club

If anyone''s likely to add 2 plus 2 and come up with 5 it''s her.

She''s been left up the Waveney without a paddle. [+o(]

[Lessingham Canary 108]

More a case of "sent her back"

[Diane 500]

Are you bored Waveney? lol

She''d be injured for all the big games, you can COUNT on that.

Poor old Di hasn''t been the same since her and De Niro got divorced.

To be honest, I hope she put her darned cross in the right place today.

She would have made a good goal keeper at her size!! Maybe she could get a green and yellow wig rather than that dodgy one she''s using recently

We need to talk about Diane Abbott....

No political agenda from me. But sometimes we miss the person among the politics.

[SwindonCanary 457]

This is when she was supporting the IRA (Or so she claimed )

Thank you Double N for that article.

Not a front bencher but at least someone who has the nous to help from the back benches.

I''m sorry Swindon but you are almost fitting the ex forces stereotype of right wing racist.

[Fr. Chewy Louie 137]

No one congratulating her on her hold with 75% of the vote? Her own constituents obviously think she''s doing something right.

She''s conducted herself with amazing dignity considering the stuff she''s had to deal with.

Was the hypocrite well enough to attend her constituency vote count?

[Fr. Chewy Louie 137]

She just stood down from shadow front-bench duties as I understood it - she wasn''t house-bound.

[Herman 10,962]

35k seat majority. She''s liked by the people that matter.

What does it matter to you?

I apologise if I interpreted your post incorrectly but wondered why the pic and the IRA comment?

[Jerzy Krukowski 5]

Diane Abbott has long been the target for those who just can''t cope with the idea that a black woman could be more intelligent, work harder and be more successful than them. End of.

[Nuff Said 5,767]

I want to echo Badger''s comments Nutty. I''m a lifelong Labour supporter, but I had fallen into the trap like many of lazy thinking about her. That blog was a timely reminder to look past the easy judgement, genuinely moving. Even if you don''t agree with Abbott''s, or Jack Monroe''s, political views, you can''t argue that what she has achieved could only be done by someone intelligent, committed and hard-working. When you add in that she was one of, if not the first black woman to do so, it just exposes the haters as small minded and jealous at best, racist at worst.

[SwindonCanary 457]

why the pic and the IRA comment?   It''s because when Diane Abbott was asked about supporting the IRA. she tried to distance herself from claims she supported the IRA by suggesting both her hairstyles and views have changed !
