[Diane Abbott 'sorry' for drinking mojito on TfL train The frontbencher received supportive messages in reply to her apology with one person writing: "I've never felt more represented". The snap of the shadow home secretary began doing the rounds on Twitter after it appeared in The Sun, which showed her sipping from a can of M&S mojito on a Transport for London Overground train - which is banned. The Labour frontbencher tweeted an apology for drinking the minty alcoholic beverage, which is made with white rum and lime flavours.] https://news.sky.com/story/diane-abb...train-11698667 |
Drinking a can of mojito on a train being front page news is embarrassing.

Oh who cares.
Is she a terrible Shadow Home Sec? Yup. Does she embarrass Labour whenever she's on tv? Often. Is she a good local MP? Probably, she's been doing it for decades. Does it matter if she had a drink on a train? Nope. Not unless she was abusive in her drunken state, which she wasn't. |

if mp's dictate the way ordinary people behave, then they need to follow the same rules. It may not in itself be the biggest crime, but it's just another example of the hypocrisy shown by so many mp's

Absolute queen. It was a bank holiday and the sun was out. Normal queen

Who doesn’t enjoy a mojito or two when the sun is shining?

Sure but not on that Train Line she is a MP mean't to set a good example. |
Hardly like she was drunk and disorderly. But hey if it distracts people from the real news it's serving its purpose.

Rees-Moggs could shoot someone in the face on live national TV and The Sun would only condemn him if his victim happened to be white. Most tabloids with influence are owned by or have ties to Murdoch at this point and he'll make any news that makes Labour look bad front page news whether it's worthy or not.

setting a terrible example |
I really can't wait for the new advert.
It wasn't just a canned cocktail... it was an M&S canned cocktail... |
What an evil bitch!
|
A true representative for the people :clap1:

Aww good on her :joker: Living her best life!
Christ some comments online you'd swear she'd kicked a puppy! :omgno: |
I actually didn't know it was illegal to drink on trains? Every train I have been on has had some peopl drinking as far as I remember, generally loud and lairy too which I doubt Abbott was. I also am fairly sure I remember some of the trains having a bar! Not a bar bar, but a little one, usually in 1st class..but available for all :S

On this TLR line the ban has been going for 11 years |
She isn't that bright.
Should have bought a bottle of other stuff,drank thst first then emptied this other drink into that bottle. Suggesting it was only pop. If anyone thinks people don't get around not legally drinking on trains, they are mistaken. At least she did hers openly. Although hardly the crime of the century. I'm not going to condemn her on this. Absolutely loads get away with this all the time. It's a bit of a draft rule in my opinion anyway. |

The woman is a liability. Forget drinking on a train, it's her political track that makes her look like the dickhead that she is. Like many politicians - on all sides - she'd never get a real job in the real world. |
There are signs up everywhere, if she wants to break the law that is up to her but its hard to take her seriously if its one rule for her and another for everyone else, I can't say in many years of travelling on London trains I have ever seen anyone drinking alcohol apart from very occasionally and they are usually drunk

I agree shes a bit of a mess in general. However, I find the massive massive uproar about this incident to be a bit..over the top. But most criticisms of her seem to be generally. Shes a **** politician.no doubts about that, but the abuse she gets is..a bit much IMO |
