She got mixed up, he apologised in 2017.
She was also talking about him not being a racist!
What are you saying about DA, is she somehow less of a woman or something, petty derogatory remark there.

What I am saying about Diane Abbott is she is pudding, forget the colour of her skin. The two questions being answered were about the Labour Party and antisemitism and Boris Johnsons " letterbox comments". Nothing to do with colour. She is not clever enough to sit on the front bench of the Labour Party, neither is Corbyn. I hardly think that using Diane Abbott to back up her argument is a winner. When was the last time I actually saw her give an interview. The more I do hear politicians talk the more I think they have nothing but complete and utter contempt for the voters.
I find I am asking myself one question. Are these politicians as good as we are going to get. If they are, then we are screwed for a long time.

? We are starting from a differnt position?? We are starting from total regulatory alignment and the issues will be where we diverge and where we tweak and where we keep the same. That is a lot easier than starting from 2 different positions on every topic and then having to end up with a third one. We can add to the mix the Canada agreement as an example on each area about what is possible. If there is a will this could be done but i am sure it will be very tough and there is a good chance of an exyension if Boris backs down a bit or, possibly more likely, he will force the issue and WTO here we come. i hope they are sensible and agree a deal as the EU has a huge surplus and would be crazy to be too aggressive to Johnson if he has a decent majority

Yes, yes, yes. And yet...Johnson sees no reason to believe a deal can't be sorted next year - indeed in less than 6 months I am reminded. No reason? Really? He'd rather be dead in a ditch than request an extension past 31st October. Clearly he saw no reason for having to request an extension either; when all who cared to look knew that there was very good reason. And so it came to pass.

You obviously have no idea about her education and her intelligence.:rolleyes:

Wasn’t on about the Abacus remark, that’s water off a ducks back, what is he insinuating by the comment “I would hardly brag about that” maybe he needs to educate himself on her record rather than believe everything he reads in the paper.
You don't need to read anything in the papers, just google her interviews, as recently as last month. In my view and many other people I have spoken to, I have not heard one good thing about her. But she is not the only one.

For whom the Boris Johnson interview on LBC this morning should be required viewing or listening - and those who eulogise Johnson should feel embarrassed by their leader/hero...

We should not forget that Ferrari is massively pro-Tory and pro-Brexit. I suggest that there is now not a chance that Johnson's handlers will allow him to being ruthlessly exposed by Andrew Neil.

"We should not forget..." Laughable! I didn't know Ferrari was pro-Tory/pro-Brexit. An EU company that might be subject to tariffs. I don't know who writes your script Hugh but its grit at the bottom of a bird cage.

Well said Paul. As I've posted several times, she has a first class constituency record and her work on a number of Select Committees and on mental health issues is up there with the best.

Maybe she is now at a level beyond her capability but as an MP, not a Front Bencher, I certainly don't question her ability.
 
Still foaming at the mouth then lads. Never mind not long to go now and you can start some real Tory knocking, I guess it wont all be bad though as Corbyn will be put out to graze and Labour can have a tribal meltdown before rebuilding into something credible (Hopefully)

Always the easy target Bri with the caveat all politicians are bad.
No different to the Labour all bad (and agree certainly some of it is) and tories constantly excused or deflect back to Labour.
Genuinely still waiting for anyone to put a decent case together in support of boris rather than, “I don’t like Corbyn” cop out.

Isn't that the problem though, choosing which party to vote for based on personality. When Corbyn speaks from the heart I like the guy, but that doesn't mean I like his overall politics. I also think the his lies are worse than the others lies doesn't look at the bigger picture. What is affordable? Which party has the better NHS/Social Care policies?

Equally, there are those on here who deflect back to the Tories - I see both sides on here doing it.

You'll make your choice, and it will be right for you, and I'll make my choice, and it will be right for me. And it doesn't matter whether or not I agree with you. Your choice won't be wrong because it will pass the benchmark/criteria you set.

This^^. she should stick to her constituency, but represent the UK in Europe and on the world stage. No.

I always thought of Johnson as some strange man/child throwback.
Now I think he is more child/man throwback.
Runs away when threatened and then gets his father to fight his case.
This abhoration is actually in charge of our armed forces.:(
Click to expand...

Once again you show your ignorance about what goes on in the UK

A: The PM is not and never has been "In charge of our ARMED FORCES"
B: Mr Johnson senior was an official guest of Ch4

Perhaps your dad should have given you a decent rounding in telling the truth.
 
Christmas Tip
Wait till 13th of December before buying presents.
Because if Labour win the election everything is free. 🎄
