Earl Aelfheah Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 There are some suggestions on Twitter (from reported conversations with a Labour MP), that she may have been diagnosed with a serious, long-term condition. I guess more info will come out, but perhaps we should hold back on the judgement for now.

Jules-and-Boo Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 eitherway, she is currently/ permanently not up to it and was causing problems by representing her party.

JohnL Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I have a suspicion it is something real (and anything mental is real to) and haven't felt she's 'right'.

robbin Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Diane certainly seems pretty vacant. It's difficult to call though as she's not the cleverest at the best of times and her tendency to bulls@*t under pressure just makes her look particularly slow. I think she's just full of it and this is a cynical and somewhat desperate move by Jezza, but I may be proved wrong about her being ill.Yes rah - good spot - it is the DM link (pretty obvious though!). If you Google her name and 'kicking a blind man's dog' that what comes up. Not sure of your point, although I could imagine you intended some sort of innuendo? It goes without saying the DM would lay it on thick with a trowel - naturally. That said - it appears elsewhere and she sounds pretty damn rude and up herself!

Huggers Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Diane is a Cambridge graduate and has always been very articulate. I think we will find she has something horrible going on. Mind you the menopause made me forget my own name.

steveo Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 You're right Sue but illness or no illness, she might have been Home Secretary tomorrow, and still might at some stage. In the light of her recent performances, surely that should concern you Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/155555-concern-for-dianne-latest-update/page/2/#findComment-1144179 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it does prove that no matter what background and chances in life, one can progress to to the highest level.But she does not have a firm grasp of her brief (laziness?) which is why she fails miserably when confronted by a competent interviewer on a one to one basis.She was fortunate to get dropped into a safe Labour seat by virtue to her close links with Bernie Grant and and others. This also fitted with Labour's desire for more diversity. Then of course there is the JC intimacy.She is a hypocrit (e.g. private schooling) and an anti-white racist.Does not have a grasp of economics or even a head for numbers. She parrots idealogical slogans because she does not have the ability to think politically on her feet.Changes her political views as frequently as she changes her hair style.Somewhat of a liability.

rendelharris Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 rahrahrah Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> This thread is really distastefulYep, and well done Sue for posting that article. No great fan (of Abbott, not Sue!) for many reasons - hypocrisy over private schooling, unnecessarily inflammatory stances on many issues, excuses for missing challenging votes etc - but there's clearly something now wrong with her either mentally or physically and the clusterfuck bullying has been pretty ugly. I do think Corbyn should have noticed this and sidelined her earlier.But you know, I'm sure we've all seen or been on the end of bullying in the workplace and know how just one person can reduce another to the edge of a nervous breakdown or beyond, getting daily abuse from thousands, of the vilest nature, like that...can't imagine it.

You think it might be libel to point out someone who speaks out strongly against private education but sends her own children to one of the poshest most expensive private school in the UK?
