Brexit media watch

Wonder what else the extremists are looking to scrape. My guess is all of it over the years.

Oooh, forgot to link to the story. Apologies

A little story for you, lifted from twitter:

I used to be union rep. So it was my job to point out to the boss, crowing over the huge chunk of overtime he'd just offered us, that 1/5 of his workforce were on stress related sick, after doing too much overtime! That was HM Inspector of Taxes in the 80s. Pre WTD, under Tories. By this time my colleagues weren't even cheering any more when they were told another tranche of overtime was available. That'll be the situation again under this lot; work us into the ground, no sick pay, no benefits and pay for medical care.

There's a great video of Diane Abbott talking about Brexit on the Andrew Marr show today on the BBC iPlayer.
I think it's pro-Brexit, it's difficult to tell, but it's probably misleading.

Although this isn’t about Brexit, I think that it is indirectly related as many of us agree including many Tories, that the type of headlines that we are getting from the far right press has “allowed” and encouraged the hate and bilecso prevalent .

David Lammy has put onto twitter an email which has threatened him with murder a la MP Joe Cox.

Whilst others have received rascist Christmas cards and other foul communications.

Brexit and the rejection of immigrants have released these latent fascists. It is time they were put back in their box.

Dianne Abbot has received more rascist hate mail than any other MP. I admire her strength to deal with such dreadful stuff.

I do too ww
I don't admire her poor performance as a politician though.
I don't admire her hypocrisy in sending her son to City Boys school.

I don't see that as hypocrisy. She wants good schooling for every child, and her party will work towards it. In the meantime, faced with the mess the Tories have made of education, she does the best she can for her child. He only gets one chance, he can't wait till the system gets fixed.

I don't think it's a problem with the system at all in her area. London schools are regularly reported as being the best in the UK. There's certainly no Tory mess where she lives - he could have attended an outstanding academy.
I think you'll have a hard job finding anyone who thinks the system is broken in London.
That's why I see it as hypocrisy.

Interestingly, he ended up at Cambridge like his mum and is currently working at the FO on EU exit and bilateral strategy.
