oddly quiet!

Well when you’re ill….

” Abstaining would have been the right thing to do IMHO and given that wasn’t practical a migraine was the right thing to do.

Still a nasty racist, but on this she’s done the right thing.”

Surely the right thing would have been to resign from the shadow cabinet as others did? Then vote according to conscience.

Not impressed with an MP who would take a sickie rather than vote or abstain. But can’t say I’m surprised with her.

i am never impressed with MPs who abstain
Your job is basically to vote on things

The sickie abstention is even worse.

“Surely the right thing would have been to resign from the shadow cabinet as others did? Then vote according to conscience.”

If she wasn’t one of the Leader’s only allies, then yes.

Good old conviction politics!!

Good old Dianne. Do as I say, not as I do

At least she’s consistent

If she wasn’t one of the Leader’s only allies, then yes.

Not allied enough to vote with him though?

Derick ‘Degsy’ Hatton on This Week just now – the socialist supporter of arch socialist Corbyn – has clearly being having Botox, sat there in his Paul Smith suit. I’d put my house on him having a driver waiting for him when he’s done

Power to the people eh comrades…

binners – you spout this bollocks as if a) we wouldn’t agree with you and b) the alternative we’ve currently got is better.
But no matter – you go away thinking you’ve scored your point.

Ed Millipede to the front bench/shadcab apparently.

More unpopulism?

Are we reaching a tipping point – like in the same way every Manchester resident will have at some point been the guitarist in The Fall, before being sacked by Mark E Smith – that every single Labour MP will have been Foreign Secretary before resigning in exasperation at Jezza?

Quite worried about Diane, fine at 5pm Westminster function then struck down before the vote on the most important issue of the last 40 years. 3 line whip too. Back in my day we called it skive-alitus

Any word of Diane?

"Can you bring us any word – to a worried nation?" a distraught Andrew Neil asks Harriet Harman "Give her all our best wishes"

Goodnight from This Week

#prayfordianeNighty, night don't let the Brexit bug bite, says Andrew Neil about Diane Abbott

Posted by BBC This Week on Thursday, February 2, 2017

The only tipping point is rightwing bollox on here. I’m leaving everyone to it til there’s actually something new to talk about.

“I am just going outside and may be some time.”

Wrap up warm, dazh

I am sure there is a point hidden in there somewhere THM – is it you are not funny?

So we are left with the RW and binners then should be fun for you all

Perhaps it was Dianne’s turn to be the guitarist in the Fall? And as her colleagues filed through the division lobby, she was scowling at Mark E Smith for ****ing around with the bass on her amp?

I thought she held the amp?

Have you seen Jezza’s tweet on Brexshit?

Good piece on Labour’s problems from Lisa Nandy, Labour should be a party of patriotism not placards

http://m.huffpost.com/uk/entry/uk_5895fdf6e4b0a1dcbd029a2a

Good piece

Obviously you would think that Jamba as she’s back to the ‘we should be more like the tories’ solution. Have people like her not learned anything from the past two years? Do these labour MPs really not have any better ideas than ‘we should be a little bit more racist’?

What’s new dazh, I missed it?

#flouncerevoked

What’s new dazh

Certainly nothing in that Lisa Nandy piece of self-promotion. The new thing is that which hasn’t yet been mentioned, which is the fracturing of Corbyn’s inner circle in the form of Diane Abbot’s hypocrisy.

#flouncerevoked

A simple pause waiting for something of substance to discuss rather than the childish loony left stuff.

It’ll certainly be interesting to see how Ms Abbot’s migraines are next week 🙂

I think we touched on dear DiDi last week

Jezza did so a while ago.

Every day is a school day, to Sir Keith and Baroness Chakrabati I should add Lady Nugee 🙂

Diane Abbott you should be ashamed. Nick Bowles attending the A50 vote after receiving Chemotherapy.

Jammers darling, with regards to Diane’s debilitating illnesss….

Remember when you were at school, someone uttering the phrase “I’m sorry sir, but the dog ate my homework”

My suspicion is this migraine might prove to be very very contagious in both parties as this Brexit shambles becomes more real.

Apparently Nicky Morgan has caught it, but due to her apparently being in possession of a brain (a rarity in the present Tory party) and a pair of kahunas, she also developed Tourette’s, directed at the whips. 😀

So rumoured that hes picked a resignation date?

meanwhile, it turns out that Tory councils do get a better deal

I was surprised at the sudden surrey referendum climbdown

Anyone half expecting him to vote against the Labour whip tonight, just for old time’s sake ?

It looks as though the government has bribed a Tory council, which is a pretty big deal in my book. Somehow, I suspect this story won’t get the attention it deserves.

Kimbers, ransos, it’s not just any conservative run council either is it? Look who the local MP’s are- couldn’t be more embarrassing (putting up council tax 15% to mitigate central government cuts and impact on local hospitals) if they hired a skywriter and wrote it in lipstick on Eric pickles’ naked form.

Theresa dismisses it as ‘fake news’ – I am curious how else you read the smoking gun those text messages to not come to similar suspicions to Labour and the Graun.

Also hugely funny imho how these texts got out into the public in the first place. Cue massive scary memo to everyone in in Surrey cc about confirming phone and email details before discussing sensitive stuff. Which I hope will also get leaked for our minor amusement too.

Clive Lewis jumps!

Readying himself for a tilt at the leadership?

Poor old Di, looked totally foolish on sky news

But good to see that she is looking better
