Diana Abbot Who Could Possibly Become The Next Home Secretary, Flouts The Law.

Whilst David Lammy asks why the rum wasn't Jamaican.

/// Reacting to Ms Abbott's apology, Tottenham MP David Lammy tweeted: 'Jah Rastafari! Why was the rum not Jamaican?' ///

Always best to keep it in the 'family' eh David?

Please don't call me 'sweety' it is so patronising.

If you had read my post I pointed it out that I had forgot to post the link, which happens from time to time.

And I have never read where you have criticised anyone else for not providing a link, so I can only assume that it is your childish way of taking the opportunity to have yet another snipe at me.

By the way I apologise for not asking how your dear Mother in Law is getting on, have you buried the hatchet yet?

[vulcan42]

What on earth has decency and common sense got to do with posting a link? In the pre-computer days and somebody said "I read in the newspaper..." did others say "get me a copy of the newspaper as until I read it I don't believe what you're telling me"?

[Rockrose]

I frequently ask where links are, and as you are stopping low to bring family members in, I cannot believe yours haven’t killed you off yet!

[Rockrose]

Sorry stooping

[mushroom25]

not sure that the consumption of alcohol on TfL services is actually illegal? at the time a consumption ban was introduced by Boris Johnson 11 years ago it was advised the ban was to be enacted by a change in the "conditions of carriage", rather than by any byelaws (although one was already in place on Croydon Tramlink). anyone not complying with the ban when asked to desist would be committing a public order offence - which is what would be arrestable, rather than the drinking, per-se....

….unless of course, you know different?

Unlike you towards your Mother in Law, they have never threatened to kill me yet.

[douglas9401]

I'm confused, is Rockrose married to Diane Abbott's brother?

I can't see how she's suddenly looming large in the thread.

[Rockrose]

Because Douglas Aog is trying to score points by getting personal

Wouldn't it have to be Diane Abbott's son, for her to be her mother in law?

[Rockrose]

AIG I have even told her to her face that she’s lucky I don’t drive her to Dignatas!

[anotheoldgit]

Rockrose

I am not being personal, didn't you once (under a previous username) make it widely known that you would like to **** your mother in law?

[Rockrose]

Of course you are making it personal! That’s your thing!
Oh and believe me my MIL dislikes me as much as I dislike her as she has told me many many times! But then maybe you think it’s ok to tell a room Fulton strangers that your DIL is a failure because she cannot carry a child to full term?

[Rockrose]

Sorry that should read a room full

[anotheoldgit]

Rockrose

Dignatas??? Can't find the meaning of that, only this and that word does not have a direct translation in English.

Dignitas is a Latin word referring to a unique, intangible, and culturally subjective social concept in the ancient Roman mindset. The word does not have a direct translation in English. Some interpretations include "dignity", which is a derivation from "dignitas", and "prestige" or "charisma".

The spirit of the law was to prevent rowdiness. I've no objection to minor misdemeanours such as sipping a can of M&S mojito, being overlooked; so long as they don't start singing or something.

/// But then maybe you think it’s ok to tell a room Fulton strangers that your DIL is a failure because she cannot carry a child to full term? ///

How on Earth could I have possibly known that, which I agree is totally out of order, but it still doesn't warrant a wish to kill her.

[anotheoldgit]

Old_Geezer

Perhaps they should ban singing or 'something' then Jim?

[anotheoldgit]

Sorry Old_Geezer, I got you mixed up with Jim360

Ok as your being obtuse I will break it down!
After a particularly nasty tirade about fat people, gays and blacks I threatened to take to a place where they put down old folks!
There that will give you something to feast on for the next year!
