The most devastatingly worded UK political resignation since Sir Geoffrey Howe's unforgettable political 'assassination' of Thatcher in the House of Commons in 1990.

|
|
By:

Her statement :
“I have made the truly agonising decision to leave the Labour Party after 55 years. “I can no longer advocate voting Labour when it risks Corbyn becoming PM.” The Liverpool Riverside MP added: “I believe that Jeremy Corbyn is not fit to serve as our Prime Minister. With a looming general election and the possibility of him becoming Prime Minister, I feel I have to take a stand.” And she told The Times newspaper that if he became prime minister “I believe that Jeremy Corbyn would be a danger to the country, a danger to the Jewish community as well, but a danger to the country too”. In a statement, Dame Louise said she felt Labour was not a safe place for Jewish people. She said: “Under Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership, anti-Semitism has become mainstream in the Labour Party. Jewish members have been bullied, abused and driven out. “The Labour Party is no longer a safe place for Jews and Jeremy Corbyn must bear the responsibility for this. “We cannot allow him to do to the country what he has done to the Labour Party. “The overwhelming majority of the Jewish community is fearful of what a Corbyn government might mean for Britain’s Jews. I share those concerns. “But this issue is not simply about the Jewish community. This is about the nature of our society. “Jeremy Corbyn’s seeming tolerance of anti-Semitism would embolden racists, poison our public debate and damage the social cohesion of our country. “My values – traditional Labour values – have remained the same. It is Labour, under Jeremy Corbyn, that has changed. “He has presided over a culture of hatred, fear and intolerance in the Labour Party. “But this issue is no longer just about the Labour Party – it is about the threat a Jeremy Corbyn premiership could pose to the country.” Dame Louise said she would not join another political party and hoped to return to Labour under a different leadership. Labour former deputy leader Harriet Harman described the resignation of Dame Louise as “very sad news”. She tweeted: “Thank you, Louise, for your terrific contribution to Parliament, politics and the Labour Party!” Liberal Democrat former leader Tim Farron tweeted: “I’ve known Louise for 30 years. “If there’s no place for Louise Ellman in the 2019 Labour Party, they are finished as a serious force.” |

|
|
By:
She is 73 she probably would not have stood again anyway
whether 73 or 43, anx she was forced out |
|
By:
No she resigned , she was facing no confidence motion and deselection , these things happen all the time
|
|
By:
Labour won't be bothered about a few Jewish voters, they'll bend over backwards and then some for for the more dangerous mob, plenty of votes there.
|
|
By:
Oh dear West Yorkshire liberation front puts his oar in
|
|
By:
Good riddance.
|
|
By:
she was facing no confidence motion and deselection
alt for forced out, anx |
|
By:
no she was facing inquiry she complained of antisemitism remarks and criticism of Israel in three branches , is criticism of Israel not allowed in this country anymore ?
|
|
By:
in Labours current climate - no
|
|
By:
lol dear me so are we all supposed to sign up to the zionist agenda
|
|
By:
let's say Abbott claimed her Party was racist at 3 branches; do you think she would be put up for a N/C vote & be facing deselection?
|
|
By:
From what i have heard and read it was looked into , look she does not like corbyn she did not vote for him in either leadership election , so she was already hostile to him , her letter of resignation is complete garbage , a danger to the country ffs , where is she planning to stand now Golders Green , yes i think we understand louise what your up to
|
|
By:
jeez anx, most MPs in your Party don't like him. Btw my friend; Golders Green is old news - Stamford Hill is the place. Not too far from Abbotts constituency actually
|
|
By:
No the truth is hornet its a stich up job , the Establishment fear a left wing Labour government so they will destroy corbyn and elect a Labour Leader that the Establishment and the tory lie machine approve of and somebody who does not threaten their money , power and priviledge
|
|
By:
The problem with socialists is that they have nothing and want to share with everyone.
|
|
By:
This has happened before and will happen again , so that you just have the same cabal running the country forever and nothing ever changes
|
|
By:
which would you rather see, anx a Tory government or a Labour one without Jezza?
|
|
By:
Historically socialism has failed in every country it that has been tried in, in the last century. Do we learn from history, apparently not
|
|
By:
Lol it would depend what policies were on offer , if you have effectively 2 tory parties i suppose you might as well have the real thing
|
|
By:
you've got that Yank numpty Sanders (interesting watch last night) trying to do what Corbyn will fail to do
|
|
By:
Corbyn and Mcdonnell are only reformists anyway , the way they have been demonised as revolutionary Marxists is laughable , they are not even that left wing or radical to be honest
|
|
By:
more Blair? Now i know you would hate that
![]() |
|
By:
hey Boxy hows your health?

|
By:

|
|
By:

or in Bidens case great grandpa might be more apt |
|
By:
