Also, it would have been nice if Parliament had spent the time on something important such as, perhaps, Brexit.
Seemed to me like the Tories were using it as an excuse to waste time...
Oh, and I think he said "woman", not "people". And I think he's probably right.Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

And potentially a by election coming up after this one was found guilty today of perverting the course of justice.
Something that could equally apply to our PM after delaying last weeks vote?

Its not a popular view, but I think if you dont contrbiute to the community as a whole you should not get the vote.
No I dont mean the person injured at work or in a car crash etc, I mean the work shy shirters who would vote in idiot after idiot and bring the country to its knees and the taxes through the roof.

You should read "In the Wet" by Nevile Shute. He thinks about voting systems and proposes the "7 votes" where, as you progress through life, you accumulate more votes (every one has a vote at 21, you get another for education, for a certain salary and so on.
Nice idea but probably still open to abuse

Listening to Dianne Abbott on R4 just now defending Corbyn was hilarious.

Not only did he not go for the full, René Artois "You stupid woman", which could have been comedy gold, he had to go away and come back with a piece of paper on which an apology had been written for him.
Bercow's reaction to Vicky Ford wasn't pleasant.

In 2015:
"Corbyn has called for an end to "personal abuse" in his first speech to the Labour Party Conference as leader.
Mr Corbyn urged delegates to "treat people with respect" and said there would be "no rudeness from me".
"Cut out the personal abuse, cut out the cyber-bullying and especially the misogynistic abuse online and let's get on with bringing real values back into politics".
So a hypocrite like the majority of MP's, which most of us knew already.
I just can't understand the Cult like hold he has on his Momentum followers. Much like Trump and his supporters. He simply can't do any wrong in their eyes.2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

That would be your translation or your opinion, which I respect as you should others.
