The comparisons with Barrack Obama are inevitable.

Both had black fathers who abandoned them.
Both have law degrees.
Both are disastrous on immigration.
Both get an easy ride from the press.

Obama has been lionised here in Europe,he is above criticism,he even managed to win the Nobel Peace Prize whilst engaged in three separate wars.
The fawning press here called him elegant,beautiful,an antelope and most nauseatingly a rainbow.

If you want a glimpse of the future listen to Edwina Currie on Question Time with Will Self discussing the preening Chuka.

Not surprised

That song he released in 1997, that goes 'I get knocked down, but I get up again' was bloody abysmal.

Says a lot about the Labour party, another career politician in it for all the wrong reasons, and had no concept of being in the limelight??????, but would like to be Prime minister one day, FFS. Still he can always go back to his old job soliciting money from people.

if he is gay then why on earth, in this day and age is he hiding it? Why's he being so anal?

I wonder if the person who threatened to expose something will honour their promise not to do so now he has stepped aside?

^ The scrutiny refers to their personal and private lives.

Given the level of intrusion these days, I wonder why anyone bothers to get elected to high office.

The signs were always there.  Chuka Umunna has always been an emotional prima donna and likely to bail at the first hint of pressure, his departure a small measure of good news for a beleaguered Labour party.  Not that they'll make the most of it, of course, self-destruction seems to be a speciality.

Joking aside if it is because he's gay then that's sad. I wouldn't have voted for him because I think he's a snake oil salesman. I don't care who he sleeps with though. Within reason. If I saw him the graveyard at night with a shovel I'd have to think twice.

Well if Chuka (who wants a leader with a name like that) really has pulled out because he doesn’t want it publicised he's a closet fudgepacker then don’t think he’s that clever for tossing his helmet into the ring in the first place. All the candidates so far seem to me to be perennial losers especially that chipper Northern idiot who drones on and on about the NHS in a strange accent.
