Wes Streeting shouldn't have responded but did so.

I just doubt anyone however would expect Wes who always criticised Corbyn all through his leadership to say anything helpful or even pleasant about him.

My point is with the person who oversees the debates and parliamentary procedure.
Namely this Speaker.

Corbyn is not a Labour MP at present, he sits as an Independent and hasnt the Labour whip.
So WHY this Speaker knowing the Labour front bench attitude to Corbyn then asked the Labour front bench what was he on about.
That's what's out of order and my point.

I can throw your comment back at you however.
As you are a supporter strongly of Corbyn and also holding a strong negative to Streeting.
I'd be saying the same had the Speaker talking directly to Wes had he then asked Corbyn what was he saying.

The Speaker isn't there to put fuel on anything where he knows personal division may be.
Corbyn was talking to the Speaker, if this Speaker couldn't hear what he was saying he should make it that he COULD and actually out of respect to Corbyn NEVER involved any other MP or indeed MPs from any Party in parliament.

I'm sure all those tories didn't like each other either, and yet they've been classed as bullies. Corbyn has way too much class to have taken the same approach as Wes, as his actual tweet on the matter makes clear.

If a tory had said what wes said, then Starmer would be calling Sunak weak for not sacking him, but because it's Corbyn it's allowed.

The responsibility is not the speakers, it belongs solely to Streeting.
