How not to win elections, eh?

[cassa333]

Yes.

That was easy, what's the next question lol

[Baldric]

Looking on the bright side, at least Labour is now stating it's intention to bankrupt the Country before an Election takes place.

[fender62]

what i do not get is, do they actually think the public supports such a move, do they not see the state of public services and the public's unrest, they milked the cow..now they want to milk the bull.

[Togo]

To be fair she has added them up and there are only 2.

[dunnitall]

Well said Baldric.....the voice of common sense. As for D.A. What can one say....erm....hope the grim Reaper is on her tail..... Can't be fairer than that. Some peeps don't deserve to co exist with decent folk....

[ToraToraTora]

"is this woman insane" - yes! she's completely radio

[dunnitall]

Agree TTT....think she always has been.

[Jackdaw33]

As she will never become Home Secretary I see little cause for alarm. Just the ravings of a nutter. She and Corbyn are well matched.

[cassa333]

Is she still making these stupid pronouncements because she is 'ill' again or just another stupid pronouncement?

Either way she needs to take a sabbatical. Or may be not. With her in residence everyone can see what will happen...

[david small]

Surely this can’t be blatant stupidity. Are they in cahoots with the Tories? This deliberately shooting oneself in the foot is tiresome.

[NoMercy]

She's not the full shilling, but then neither is Corbyn.

I can't help but smile as I imagine what Mikey's reaction would be...

[waterboatman]

Now there's a thought NM! :o}

[Deskdiary]

I don't think she's insane, but I do think that Abbott's problem is she is thick.

She has been promoted way way beyond her meagre abilities and I find it truly shocking that if Labour were to win the next GE that she would be the Home Secretary. Diane Abbott in the third most important job in Government - the very thought terrifies me. Tokenism.

[emmie]

sounds potty but she and Corbyn would do it im sure, just what the UK needs, more people, barmy and totally without any sense of the rights and wrongs of accepting more people than we can handle.

[naomi24]

Open the floodgates to immigration, destroy the economy, have major companies heading for the hills, censor the press. Vote Labour. They’re all potty. What’s not to like?

[ummmm]

I can't take that woman seriously. Bonkers.

[naomi24]

I like Togo's answer at 19:43 Wed. :o)

[youngmafbog]

Oh dear, at a time when we need a strong labour party to hold Tersa the Appeaser to account what have we got?

Comrades COB, Abacus Abbott and John 'I like the IRA' McDonnell

[New Judge]

But as I have said before, there are large numbers of people in this country who will vote Labour, whatever they propose. Many of them seem to be of the belief that bankrupting the country will only affect the "Rich Tory Toffs" whilst they themselves will remain unscathed. Many of them believe money is provided to them by the government with no idea where it comes from. Many of them have no grasp of economic principles. An ever increasing number have no idea what it's like to live under a real Labour government (last seen in 1979). We should be under no illusion that the prospect of a Labour government is by no means out of the question just because they have Dianne Abbott as the shadow Home Secretary because many who will vote for Jezza have no idea what the Home Secretary is or does.

With the Tory Party failing to enchant its traditional voters (in fact, positively disenchanting many of them) thyere is considerable cause for concern.
