Keir Starmer at it again..

Reform are surprisingly very popular amongst the young.

You wouldn’t think this with some of the reaction of their supporters/members.

Hard to think of any other MP who has so completely shat on their own reputation. From being the trailblazing first black woman MP to this, a joke figure who cant open her mouth without putting both feet in it.

Oh I'm not sure she shat on her reputation, there was/is a certain element of society that were very happy to help her.

She’s fully embraced that help though.

Its not black and white though, if you'll pardon the phrasing. She can be a victim of racism *and* serially incompetent.

 

[Templeton Peck]

She gets a lot more abuse than most. One thing we're not short of is incompetent politicians.

 

[Templeton Peck]

Just read what she said and I don't see the issue?

She compared the prejudice faced by Jewish people to being ginger. She then apologised and got the whip back. Now shes essentially repeated the claim.

She cant even manage to be racist competently.

Seriously, what did she think would happen?

It might just not be in this article, but where does she compare it with being ginger?

 

[Templeton Peck]

I just listened to it. No mention of ginger.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

So was Vis actually comparing gingers with black people then?

 

[visage]

Her original suspension was for that.

Now, when asked if she looked back on the whole incident with regret, she said: "No, not at all.".

So she presumably stands by her original indefensible point.

‘Gingers’. Hmm.
