[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 Last edited by arista; 20-04-2019 at 08:50 AM. |

POW! BLAM!

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

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.
