Not taking Starmer's word?

Starmer has a vendetta against Corbyn from what it looks like to me.

Why are people voting for people not up to the job
Well in America, a lot of their voters didn't like the Democrats best candidate and voted for Trump instead.

The NEC DO have to rubber stamp ALL Labour candidates included in the list.

However it's a formality usually so of course she will be.

Quite frankly I'm sick of hearing about her.

I haven't checked her age but she's been around since God was a child.

She's gotta be heading for 80.

Quit now and enjoy your retirement!!

BBC aren't supposed to accept tweets without the time stamp/tweet information. Maybe they got it all sorted out in the end and it did turn out to be genuine as a guy from the BBC was part of the discussion I saw yesterday. I'll have a look to see if I can find it.

She's 70 Gusto.
71 in September.

As for that tweet that was quickly taken down.
It's still not known if the tweet came from Abbott herself or one of her staff on her account.

Either way, I still don't see why on earth she even wants to fight an election for Labour with Starmer as leader.
So why be hypocritical and stand.

Honestly I'm fed up to the back teeth hearing about her now.
If I was in authority, I'd have the NEC block her standing.

She's more a liability than an asset , in MY view anyhow.

I'm.glad she's in a safe seat because I for one would refuse to go and leaflet or canvass for her.
Not a chance.

You’re so fed up of hearing about her, you’re commenting on her multiple times a day when you could very easily stop and not interact with anything to do with her if she bothers you that much

Luke Akehurst could probably do with commenting on, if we're looking for dodgy labour candidates. I can draw up a list of many other candidates being parachuted into safe seats out of fealty to Keir leader

You don’t need my permission, but it was a suggestion, if she bothers you so much don’t interact with anything to do with her, nobody is forcing you to listen about her or interact with things about her, you’re doing that yourself while claiming to be completely fed up with her, the normal thing to do in that situation would be to distance yourself from anything to do with her, rather than continue to rant about how much you hate her every chance you get

We’re not allowed to talk about how racist he is because we’ll get people calling us antisemites again

Accusing me of being an AS seemed to peak in 2019, so I'm used to it by now.

Except you're wrong in that I don't hate Diane, never have

However I hate how she's gone on with this fuss over this week when she more than anyone else KNOWS the workings of the Labour Party and the NEC too.

Does your statement however apply to those who hate Starmer then as well.

Should they just avoid talking about him too.
If according to you I should as to Diane Abbott.???

Didn't realise it wasn't the mods who told people what to post, on whom and when or how much.
Must be a rule I've missed reading there somehow.

Accusations of antisemitism have lost their potency now, especially on this hellhole, considering all you have to do to be accused of it is to not want Israel to kill anymore children

Yes, if someone was carrying on about Starmer, as you have been about Abbott, ranting about him while simultaneously claiming to be fed up of hearing about him, then yes, they should do exactly as I just suggested you should do, the same with the people who harp on about certain royals despite claiming to not be bothered by their existence

Then to avoid annoying you further.
I'll now leave this thread to you and others to say whatever YOU ALL wish, when and however too.

Have a good day.
