Diane Abbott maybe would'nt get home secretary job if Labour won?

[Northern Monkey]

She recently had another embarrassing interview on Sky News and now is backing out of events saying she's ill.
Sky were speculating that Labour have been trying to keep her off the airwaves before the election.

Honestly if she was'nt going to get the position i would be much more confident about my Labour vote.
Could it be a possibility?

'VERBAL DIARRHOEA Diane Abbott pulls out of BBC election debate at the last minute after being ‘taken ill’ following disastrous interview on terror after London Bridge attack
Radio 4 confirm Shadow Home Secretary will not appear on Women’s Hour this morning with Labour replacing her with Emily Thornberry
But Ms Abbott’s no-show comes off the back of her toe-curling experience opposite presenter Dermot Murnaghan last night.'

'She was left red-faced when she failed to answer a single question on a series of recommendations to keep the capital safer from terrorists 48 hours on from the London bridge attack.'

[joeysteele]

There's never assured positions, it may be a reshuffle would be done by Corbyn.
There is speculation Mrs May will be doing one,possibly even moving the Chancellor too who has been markedly absent near all through this campaign.

I doubt Abbott would be Home Secretary actually,I'm not that sure she even would mind not being so.
In light of the terrorist attacks,Corbyn and other Parties are re assessing plans.

It's like all Parties saying no deals if there's a hung parliament.
There'd have to be to govern.

However elections throw up odd situations, I think it more likely than not that Abbott would not be Home Secretary.

What a disgusting descriptor, is this a news item?
She never seems that prepared for interview and when it's with the more hostile to Labour stations really she does need to be particularly on the ball.

Leave it to Thornberry, Gardener and Sarah Champion, she was amazing here..

Yes,From one of the more highbrow media publications

Oh and Sky News were discussing it.

Would she do better than the home secretary we have now?... Who could do worse might be a better question :laugh:

Better to trip up than outright lie.

Well if you're going to criticise Labour for something then you have to expect that the Tories will also be criticised if they are also guilty of the same things. That's generally how discussions work, Kazanne.

[Kizzy]

Yes let's get some perspective, corbyn attended a march in 1984 where some IRA members might have been present .... and may directly funding terrorism now (allegedly)?

:/

[smudgie]

Theresa May, as the Prime Minister, has dealings with the Saudis, they are our allies, helping us to reduce the amount of terrorist attacks in this country with their intelligence.
On the other hand, Jeremy Corbyn fraternised with and supported the enemy, the same enemy that was blowing up innocent men, women and children not only in Northern Ireland but in the cities of England.
We are not at war with Saudi, the IRA were at war with us.
Quite a difference in circumstances.

[Brillopad]

Corbyn and Abbott - talk about a disaster waiting to happen. Man the blockades.

They are not our friends.

'Saudi Arabia is also the regime that threatened the UK with “another 7/7” and the loss of “British lives on British streets” in 2006, according to court documents. Prince Bandar, the head of the Saudi national security council at the time, allegedly threatened to withhold intelligence if UK investigators didn’t drop a corruption investigation into the regime’s arms deals.'

Meanwhile, the Tories are delaying the release of the findings of an inquiry into the foreign funding of extremists. The government said it would release the findings in 2016. But now, Theresa May’s government says it won’t make it public until after the election. And a Home Office spokesperson admitted that officials may never publish it due to its “very sensitive” contents.'

'People suspect that the report focuses on Saudi Arabia. Mainly because the state ideology of the kingdom – Wahhabism – is the same one that inspires groups like Daesh (Isis/Isil). And the country has spent approximately $100bn spreading this ideology around the world. At the same time, members of the country’s elite have long supported extremist groups.'

It would be a wise move if they got rid of her.

If Hillary Benn was leader, I'd maybe vote labour. I just don't trust the people they have in the shadow cabinet. I don't trust May and her cabinet either, but she's more middle ground, than partisan on one side.

Let's not forget that Corbyn's past dealings are not isolated incidents but very frequent ones throughout his career. Here's the latest that Guido Fawkes have exposed today: https://order-order.com/2017/06/06/corbyn-addressed-hundreds-of-al-muhajiroun-members-at-rally/

Jeremy Corbyn addressed a rally including hundreds of members of the banned extremist group Al-Muhajiroun, Guido can reveal. In May 2002 Corbyn gave a speech at a highly controversial anti-Israel demo at Trafalgar Square, attended by former terrorists and supporters of Hezbollah. A contemporaneous report by the communist Weekly Worker newspaper says up to 300 members of Al-Muhajiroun were present. The newspaper reported that some were dressed as mock suicide bombers and others chanted “gas, gas Tel Aviv”. This is from the extraordinary Weekly Worker* report:

“Al Muhajiroun held placards reading ‘Palestine is Muslim’. They chanted, “Skud, Skud Israel” and “Gas, gas Tel Aviv”, along with their support for bin Laden. Two would-be suicide posers were dressed in combat fatigues with a ‘bomb’ strapped to their waists. This section accounted for no more than 200-300, but they made a noise far out of proportion to their numbers… The rally was also addressed by Labour MPs Jeremy Corbyn and George Galloway.”

Al-Muhajiroun is a proscribed terrorist organisation which was led by the infamous radical Islamists Omar Bakri Muhammad and the jailed Anjem Choudary. Several of its members have committed terrorist attacks and the group has been linked to the 7/7 bombings, the murder of Lee Rigby as well as dozens of other attacks and plots. London Bridge attacker Khuram Butt was a supporter of Al-Muhajiroun. What was Corbyn doing anywhere near them, let alone addressing an audience which included 300 of their members?

*The Weekly Worker is pro-Corbyn so this cannot be a “smear from the Tory press”.

Diane Abbot was dreadful on sky news she clearly had no idea what she was talking about while claiming to have read the report. The thought of her as home secretary or any other prominent role is really worrying. Why do they keep sending her to do interviews? It's embarrassing.

It would be a wise move if they got rid of her.

If Hillary Benn was leader, I'd maybe vote labour. I just don't trust the people they have in the shadow cabinet. I don't trust May and her cabinet either, but she's more middle ground, than partisan on one side.

I'd be very tempted by Labour if Hilary Benn were leader.

Well, she has not stood down permanently, she could recover from her illness on Friday and take up her position. Who is her replacement, what are her views, so many questions. Its a very strange set of circumstances to occur on the final day of polling.

Of course, i do wish Dianne a speedy recovery, I don't think she is the right person for the job, but I wouldn't wish any illness on her either.

Yeah true,Lets just hope he has more sense than to put her in any position of responsibility.Although they've been good pals for years apparently.

And obvs I wouldn't wish abbott any ill health just don't want her in government.

That's a bit unfair. Anti-Zionist Jews and and anti-Zionist people just don't side with the Zionists (Jewish or not). You don't have to be far left to disagree with what Israel is doing to Palestine.

Much like labours Brexit secretary Sir Keir Starmer then? The guy everyone forgets about when May starts bleating on about how its her or Corbyn to be doing the negotiations. Its Keirs job, not Corbyns.
