Ok, the upside down person had the forethought to orientate the text on their outfit so it could still be read by others.
That's some solid message planning right there.
Diane Abbott suspended as Labour MP.

Is that thatcher, or were cartoonists limited to a certain number of faces in those days?

Don't know what you mean.
I was just asking what you meant about her being "loony left"?

My Diane Abbott memory is watching her in the Hackney Empire during a refuse worker dispute take to the stage in full camouflage outfit, adopt a strong estuary accent and speak about struggle.
I had only heard her previously on Radio 4 Any Questions where she seemed terribly received pronunciation (nothing wrong with that) so the transformation was quite a shock.
Apparently she was a good constituency MP and she is definitely well known in the area. My current Tory MP is an absent ghost.

Is the loony left in the room with you now?

So, what you're saying is that Starmer will be appealing to the racists? It's not as if he isn't doing that already by appearing on telly and in photo ops draped in the Butcher's Apron.

One or both of us is confused. Are you thinking that because I used the phrase "loony left" I must be a copy of the daily mail from 1985? That's not what it is.

I never suggested you were a copy of the DM. Many people who don't read that paper also use the phrase.

This is a right old mess of Labour HQs making. They knew an election was coming and could have resolved it one way or another.
Obviously Labour supporters are appalled at her treatment. It's entirely political how badly she's been treated.

Who the fuck is this woman on newsnight at the moment. Talking about having engorged breasts because she hasn't fed her baby.
Starmers fault apparently.

This entire event appears to have been a very cack-handed attempt by Starmer et al to engineer a "dignified" goodbye, and they may have succeeded had they said in January, "here's the whip, now please promise to step aside and you'll be Baroness Stoke Newington by the summer"
Holding on until the last minute has only strengthened the view that the machines dislikes her personally, wants to handicap her personally, and wants rid of her quickly.
Labour managed five days gaff-free in this campaign. Now it'll be shadowed by the words "Diane Abbott" for a good few days yet.

Good one, but what's with the snidey year 10 bullying?
For fuck's sake "She's loony left, and she was meant to be gone before the election" does not represent my perspective on things. Sometimes you can look back at a post and think you could have been clearer, but I'm struggling in this case to see how it can have be misconstrued.
In any case, if people genuinely have misunderstood, what would be wrong with asking for clarification, rather than the cryptic replies and smug victimisation?

You can easily clear up the misunderstanding by saying you were being sarcastic when you used the term.
We've already had one drive by poster describing her as "nuts".
He seems to genuinely believe that.
Am guessing you used the "loony left" term to parody that sort of detractor?

More or less. I was characterising the view of the labour leadership. Which I would think is obvious, unless I approve of what they're doing. And yet, whatever other unsavoury opinions everyone clearly thinks I harbour, it ought to be clear from comments I have made in this thread that I don't. You didn't read them? Fine, but why are you sticking your bully nose in then?
It's not the misunderstanding that bothers me, it's the incredibly unseemly instant pile on (Pickman's excepted, he's just like that). It's like having the fucking Labour party pouring over your tweets.
Have a word with yourselves.
