Oh for goodness sake, can't this ridiculous man just bow out gracefully as he heads to retirement at the next election.
He has talked little sense since being elected as an MP and now he wants to go down saying even more stupid things. Is anyone really that interested in anything he has to say now anyway. |

Some women just like some men too may take longer to think about war and its effects but no gender is any better or worse as to such issues really in my opinion. |

I can't believe people can come out with the most overtly sexist, misogynistic nonsense on here and not even get a warning.

how sexist are women ONLY shortlists eh? how anti democratic is that ?
the man hating rubbish thats peddled as truth on question time should be looked at by the equalities commission...some female mps have claimed male mps are responsible for wars and women mps are more peace making and would get rid of wars....except the real politic the actual facts show the female mp voting records are 98% in favour al wars in the past 20 years. more sexist man hating feminist lies |

kick a man out for having an opinion? why dont you try russia or korea, you may enjoy their censorship and destruction of freedom of speech. women can say what they like about men and do always. they blame all men for all wars and female mps claim if women had been in charge thered be no wars. complete sexist lies which you and others choose to ignore. additionally in some parts of the country a man is not allowed to run for office, because hes a man, simple as that. you call that democracy? its 100% anti male sexism in its purest form. yet you and others choose to ignore this too. by the way 98% of female mps voted for all the UK wars of the past 20 years. peacemongers lol yeah right.

Hi the truth,also happy to answer you but doubt you will like the answer,here goes. I just don't like the guy,he rarely likes the leaders of his party,he often goes against their policies but with no alternative answer to them. For me he is a bit of a loose cannon and the sad thing is he just cannot come up with logical alternatives. For me, he rambles and bumbles on about nothing in particular,some of my family are in his constituency and they find him hard to track down as their MP too. The comment above is a good example of him just firing off without thinking as to offending people generally and his colleagues too,and for most of what he spouts off on,he is ill informed on and also he hasn't researched properly. He just simply rubs me up the wrong way I guess, I think he was fortunate that he got into Parliament at all,I give him credit for holding the seat for so long but I think he has probably been one of the most ineffective MPs in Parliament. His main problem has always been for me his attitude with that smirk on his face that for me signifies insincerity. I would also actually think it is a relief to the Labour party that he is standing down now and I doubt if Parliament will in any way at all be the tiniest bit worse off for him not being there after 2015. That is why I say good riddance. Parliament possibly more now than at any time since the war,need people of conviction, determination and the ability to set out to really change things for the better,highlighting the positives and not always being negative. For me Austin Mitchell has never been such an MP. Last edited by joeysteele; 21-08-2014 at 08:04 PM. |

Not to speak on joey's behalf, but probably because he's a liability. Simply having a penis doesn't automatically mean you're a great, fair, learned politician. And he's definitely not.
