Good grief, it's incredible now how the media are presenting Abbott as more like a Mother Theresa of politics.

They were all clamouring against her before.

She has often caused problems and said controversial and at times offensive things.
Whether she stands again or not, the only thing about Diane Abbott is that she'll moan her way through the next parliament and much more than likely be embroiled again in offensive actions/ statements of some kind.
Or if she doesn't get to stand again, or does as an independent, then she'll carry on moaning anyhow.

It's laughable that the Cons, the media and political pundits are now lauding her as a victim here
She put herself in this situation by not controlling her mouth and her offensive thinking
No one else put her in this situation.

She also knows full well it is the NEC who'll decide if she stands again.
She knows Labour procedures with the NEC.
So untill they meet and decide she could do everyone a favour and pull the zip over her mouth for a change
