Corbyns Momentum

Eleothan, you flatter me but I really think you need to get a life , searching for old posts is so sad. Try scrabble on line

As usual, you appear unable to address any of the points I have made but revert to your usual tactic of making rude and personal remarks.

Eleothan, I have no intention of replying to your post, I have said many times, I will not feed the need for the Corbynites here.

So funny, Annie. You start a thread about Corbyn and then have no intention of replying to anyone's posts.
How sad.

"Bercow dismisses call for emergency debate on Clive Lewis as 'absurd'

At the weekend the Conservative MP Nusrat Ghani said she would be applying for an emergency debate on the Labour MP Clive Lewis using of the phrase “on your knees, bitch”. (It was obviously a dubious joke, but for various different reasons a coalition of people took offence, and bizarrely it ended up as a story on the News at 10.)

In the Commons John Bercow has just described Ghani’s proposal as “absurd” and “inappropriate”. He clearly did not even allow Ghani to make an application for an emergency debate in the Commons. He was speaking in response to the Tory MP Amanda Milling, who tried to raise the matter as a point of order. Bercow was quite dismissive towards Milling too, telling her she could try for an adjournment debate. "

This afternoon in parliament.

However, he has agreed to have an emergency debate tomorrow on Universal credit.
What a sensible man, even if he is nominally a Tory.

No, I started a thread about Corbyns Momentum and an offensive comment by a labour MP at a Momentum fridge meeting.

Connection - Labour MP, offensive remark, Momentum members who cheered the offensive remark,

Not Boris Johnson, a blogger called Fawkes, Owen Jones and countless others who had no connection with the Labour Party or Momentum. The most qnumber of posts were in favour of the offensive remark , end of,

I agree, Annie, end of.
It was a non-story anyway, as Bercow said twice today.

No, offensive , vulgar comments by an MP are not a non story , I don't care which party, he was crude and foul mouthed, I accept not by your standards Jen but definitely by mine,

Goodness durhamjen, I expressed my 'disapproval' about CL comments but - the very idea of a parliamentary emergency debate about it is total nonsense. Thank goodness for common sense and proper behaviour from John Bercow. If comments from people like myself could fuel that kind of I'd withdraw them, much as I'd like to have the free speech opportunity to be an old fuddy duddy.
On a brighter note, does that mean the tories are feeling the pressure , I do hope so. I heard JC on the lunch time news in a parliamentary comment about Groundhog Day when discussing TMs approach to Brexit. He sounded positive and confident - good.

I wonder where those aghast Tory woman MPs were when DD was so offensive to Diane Abbot? I expect he was just joking so that’s all right then?

Tory MPs were sitting behind May when the Scottish Tory MP sitting by her arm mouthed the words "You bitch" at Yvette Cooper.

Nothing happened then. I suppose that was parliamentary privilege.

David Mundell, it was.

Did you complain about that, Annie?

The sheer hypocrisy on here is jaw dropping. By all means hold MPs to account for disrespectful/ unacceptable comments about women but have the morality to hold ALL MPs who do that to account and not just those on the left.

Maybe that's a topic for a different thread?
I get fed up with threads about momentum and Corbyn being hijacked like this.

Who said it was a disrespectful comment about women ? He said it to a man, male or female makes no difference , it was obscene .

In my opinion, not in the opinion of the majority on this thread . Could be I don't mix with people who speak in such an obscene manner, but it's my opinion and I am entitled to it, just as others are entitled to find it acceptable

This thread was started as has been said just to have another
go at a Corbyn and Momentum - again. Tedious, boring, nothing new to say.

Then why bother to post ?

Exactly Annie. If you're not interested in the topic, don't post!

Eleothan even went searching for old posts of mine, strange thing to do for what is classed as a non story by those who have posted the most , most odd

Take it as a compliment Anniebach!

Chewbacca, searching for old posts than copying and pasting them is sad , quite worrying.

Probably means that they haven't got anything better to do Annie. Try thinking of them as your fan club!
