Abbott Replaced

[scooping]

Ill apparently

[Smowball]

I've only just realised that Abbott and Corbyn used to be in a brief relationship about 35 years ago.

[vulcan42]

Oh, come on, the labour party isn't going to say she has been replaced because she was incompetent.

[anneasquith]

AOG on this subject you have been a gentleman.

[Smowball]

I've just read Talbots 09.32 link.

Thank you anne, I always try to retain my gentlemanliness, but at times on here one is forced to "do has the Romans do".

[anneasquith]

Jordy, you don't believe DA could be ill I take it ?

[jordyboy14]

no i do not think she is ill he should have sacked her

[Mamyalynne]

I have no idea if she is ill or not but of course it gives ammo to those fond of an asterisk or two who may have better access to her medical files than I do.

Not fond of email/twitter pranks either but that's the World we live in today.

[-Talbot-]

You would rather ignore the truth, Mamya?

It is incredible that she fell for it and looks like the real reason she has gone.

If she is so ill to have to step down from her shadow cabinet job ... will she still be standing for election?

[Mamyalynne]

I'm ignoring nothing, I have no time for the woman and don't know whether she'll stand either.

[-Talbot-]

Well I have plenty of time to listen to this kind of story.

A woman who potentially could have become our Home Secretary falls for the old Nigerian Prince scam ... that is no fault but her own and even by her sky high standards of idiocy this is premier league.

Just heard she says she is standing in the election ... her 'illness' isn't that bad then?

[Zacs-Master]

She's not Ill! She admitted as much in the prank. She even said her diabetes wasn't reason enough to stop her appearing on WH.

[hellywelly4]

It does seem to be a very convenient illness.

[HansUrbancka]

Now where did I hear that D.A. either feigns sickness or waves the Racial Prejudice Card.

Hans.

And Lyn Brown, another people's champion, who charges the taxpayer for rent on a flat near the Commons while she has a house only a few miles away. No boring commuting for her.

[dannyk13]

According to the news at 2pm it is only a temporary replacement while she recovers from her illness.

Snowball: The lovely pair enjoyed a motorbike trip to the workers' paradise of East Germany, doubtless to gain their first lessons in Marxist economics.
