David Lammy’s Geography Gaffe

[webbo3]

\\During a debate on Syria on Monday afternoon, Lammy insisted to fellow parliamentarians that Libya was ‘next door’ to Syria, noting://
\\Having just come back from the region, I am sure that she will have heard Gulf allies raise the issue of Captagon and illegal drugs that also propped up Assad’s regime and flooded into Gulf countries. We continue to monitor that. None of us wants Syria to become like Libya next door – fractured and vulnerable to different terrorist groups. We will do all we can.//

Good job he's not the foriegn secretary.......

[naomi24]

And he's been appointed to represent this country.  He just about sums up this government.  A complete and utter embarrassment.

As foriegn secretary

[naomi24]

Indeed.

[ToraToraTora]

....and he's the brains of the outfit! PMSL!

[albaqwerty]

The man is a buffoon.

[ToraToraTora]

he's the male version of the abacus!

 

[naomi24]

He needs to be given the order of the boot - and now!

This is the man who on Celebrity (!) Mastermind thought Marie Antoinette won the Nobel Prize in 1903 for inventing penicillin,  that Georgia’s Rose Revolution happened in Yugoslavia, & that Henry VII came after Henry VIII. 😂

Good job he's not the foreign secretary.......

no irony on AB please, ( rule 16)

I am sure he wished to draw the parallel between Libyan chaos ( ten years at least) and the possible future of Syria

Perhaps Lammy should be renamed -  Lame-y

 

[Peter Pedant]

Does Lammy have a degree or is he like the Chancellor of the Exchequer ?

[fender62]

not just lammy though it's the whole front bench, yvette cooper meeting german side on migrant law, notice all the people on her side writing stuff at the same time to look busy on camera..

[Old_Geezer]

Thank goodness he isn't Foreign Secretary... can you imagine ?

 

Eh ? What ? You're kidding...

[Paul22118]

It is self evident that Lammy is unfit for the role of Foreign Secretary of UK. The man is an embarrassment to his government and us all.  My greater worry is the KS appointed him and continues to support him.  This is not leadership.

look up I for Irony ( yeah yeah I know this is AB)

Chrissakes Trump ( everyone's darling) thinks Ukraine is part of Russia

The bar of buffoonery and ignorance is obviously a very flexible thing for the folks on here. 😅

Lammy says something stupid. He's stupid.

Someone we like says something stupid. He's great. In fact the more stupid things he says the greater he is.

🤣🤣

come now, surely the Abbot of the right is Priti Patel and her magic "three hundred thousand, and thirty four, nine hundred and seventy four thousand" number? An utter embarrassment, of course, but strangely none of the acute commentators on this thread seems to have had a word to say on the subject.

Make Arithmetic Great Again!

The only thing Lammy can find is his mouth.  Fork clearly has no problem there.

The man is an embarresment not matter how the lefties above try to dress it.  The UK is now an even bigger laughong stock.
