Tory ministers involved in the cross-party Brexit talks were impressed (to their surprise) by Rebecca Long-Bailey. Public about to get chance to judge for themselves at #PMQs

She would greatly benefit from taking elocution lessons though

Solicitor Rebecca Long Bailey became Labour MP for Salford and Eccles at the 2015 general election - the election which led to Ed Miliband's resignation and Jeremy Corbyn's surprise victory in the Labour leadership race.

An early supporter of Mr Corbyn, Ms Long Bailey was quickly promoted to the position of shadow Treasury minister.

Resignations following the EU referendum in June 2016 led to her becoming shadow chief secretary to the Treasury and eight months later she became the shadow business secretary.

She was on Labour's negotiating team during the doomed cross-party talks over Brexit.

This will be the first time she has stood in for Jeremy Corbyn at Prime Minister's Questions.

agree nellie. Watching the 2 numpties pretending to be offended & outraged weekly by a slight raising of voice; was cringing

McDonnell is a fan, Angoose. Whether that's a good thing or not is not clear though

fake outrage becoming more and more common these days

i was quite friendly with a feisty young lady from Ordsall? Which isn't too far from the areas she represents. She was half Indian & truly beautiful. But could she swear I heard words never before spoken to my innocent ears. I bet RLG could repeat them looking at that performance

It's a bit of a toss up as to who has the more annoying whine between Rebecca and Martha Kelner (sport reporter at Sky News)

must agree Martha Kelna is dreadful.

aye she'd take some beating (literally)

She's the idiot who appeared on question time and flat denied there was a link between mass immigration and a housing shortage. Flat earther more like, you are either 1. Dishonest or 2. Incredibly stupid to deny such an obvious link.

Last thing we need is another politician who will cold deny obvious facts and reality and spend her time petty point scoring...

Angela Rayner sitting beside her is probably thicker but its a close run thing.
Shows you poor the standards are in the SNP when Kirsty Blackman was their stand-in.
As for Bercow he does seems to feel the need to get himself noticed.
