Are you referring to the Shadow Home Secretary's car crash LBC interview? Completely clueless!! She is the epitome of the loathsome career politician!

Most politicians are worthless in my opinion, however big D. A. abuses the privilege. At best she is incompetant, at worst she is an abrasive bullying know-nothing.
Billy Connely had it right. You shouldn't vote, it just encourages them!

She's a total dope and she was Corbyn's lover at one stage; a well matched pair.

I came on here to start a thread about this, but Andy beat me to it. If there was one person who could cause me to u-turn on my pledge to vote Labour it would be Abbott. I struggle to find the best in her.

She is beyond stupid

The Labour Party is looking to raise money by charging a 'mansion tax' on garden sheds and greenhouses. Anyone with a garden shed or greenhouse will have to pay a one-time £100 tax, or £200 if you have both. With an estimated 10m sheds in the UK this should raise a minimum one billion pounds, enough to fund 1,000 new police officers. Or 10,000. Anyone guilty of knocking down their shed before the tax is in place will have to pay double.

Good luck with that one. Would be utterly impossible to enforce / prove. Are they going to send around some sort of squad to check people's property? Google Earth is out of date (and I doubt would be a legally enforceable way of checking anyway). You can't really charge someone £100 for a shed they brought 10 years ago. What if it's knackered, missing doors / panels etc and isn't being used a shed? So many variables. Won't happen.

As for Labour in general. You could pay me and I still wouldn't vote for them.

I'm not surprised.You would have to be completely pi%^ed or on some heavy medication to try that.Preferably both before you would even attempt it & more importantly so you would have no memory of it afterwards.

Cringeworthy. I knew she wasn't very bright, but this is even worse than I'd imagined. Making it up as she went along.
Couldn't divide 10000 by 4...got 25000, 250,000, and 2250 Thick.

Yet fancies herself as Home Secretary?

It's fantastic, with such an utterly clueless moron as Abbott as Labour's idea of a Home Secretary how is anyone going to vote for them.

Labour are a laughing stock and anyone who leads the party and appoints that monstrosity as shadow home secretary has already killed off their own political career.

I find her more loathsome than Ken Livingstone and that really takes some doing.

"Misspoke"! To be fair, everything that comes out of that cake hole is misspoken and can never give a straight answer! Prepare for Labourgeddon if they get in!

Arguably her GMB interview with Piers Morgan was as shamefully embarrassing as the Nick Ferrari effort. Yet despite this there are still people who will vote for that numbskull and her useless leader. Holy ****.

I can't make my mind up which is the scariest thought:

1.The people who keep voting her in.

or

2.There is no one better to beat her.

He was being a bit of a pr1ck to her though. He's just as loathsome as Abbot - and that smarmy condescending witch to his left isn't much better.

Not defending Abbot, she's an utter clown. She's Labours Boris Johnson.

No he wasn't? He started off decently and asked her a simple question that she should have been able to answer. She didn't so he started pressing her.

That interview was a total car crash - I actively detest that woman - always plays the race card, and just whines constantly..... "myself an the constituents of Hackneeeeyyyyyyyy......" aarrgghhh!

Dead Ringers on R4 portray her brilliantly - "Jeremy, Jeremy....."

Any one who votes for Labour in this election must be insane - although having no credible opposition to any party is not good for any of us sadly....

He didn't give her a chance to answer, she started to stumble (which is her fault admittedly) and he just attacked her without allowing a reply - with Reid smirking along side him.
