One of the most extreme deranged MPs out there. Russell-Moyle has been clearly never been fit for parliament and needs to get mental health help.

Weasel does a u turn, embarrassing for him

Not good enough. Keir_Starmer if you don't have the bottle to get rid of him then put a bloody muzzle on him - women don't ever want to see the POS again.

Got 4 more years of Lloyd russell as my local MP. 😡😡😡😡😡

The Independent is ignoring the tories' lies and shambles in another outright attack on an MP who's seen as left leaning. The paper got RLB's scalp, now another is in the offing. I guess the click rate is far higher for anti-left stories. Are they missing JC, favourite target?

Oh that’s that bloke who doesn’t come across unhinged at all.

Too late. Can’t unsay what’s been said.

This is Labour.

Not this 'we will fight them in the streets' idiot again. He stoops lower than a toad's testicles. What does Starmer see in him to put him as a shadow spokesman?

Q: Shouldn’t he lose his job? RLB was sacked for something that was perceived to be offensive to a large group of people. What this man wrote was more clearly offensive to a much larger group of people.

If people spent as much time trying to find positive solutions instead of making negative arguments this could be fixed by now. Most businesses are creating unisex cubical bathrooms and family change areas where everyone changes in cubical but all together. Problem solved.

I suspect this little sh!t had a little message passed to him by the lawyers of jk_rowling People who have 'position' wh libel her are worse than reckless. She is no politician. Her reputation for integrity is held dear...and she has deep, deep pockets.

Remember what we are up against10April Planes on there way right now to Heathrow from New York. No testing no 2week quarantine. Australia has this in place 53 deaths we have nearly 8000death . Same at Channel ports Ferry ports going nonstop!!! No testing!!!! Ask Priti Patel why?

Why should the labour party apologize for making accusations that are par for the course for their ideology?

To forgive is Devine.

Labour are now a racist party full of and led by pathological liars.

JK Rowling is a disgusting bigot and nobody should apologize to her.

This man shouldn’t even be a Labour MP - he’s absolutely toxic, he’s vile

Labour MPs’ fury with ‘deluded’ Rebecca Long-Bailey over antisemitism row exposedREBECCA LONG-BAILEY was sacked by Labour leader Keir Starmer yesterday in a fresh wave of fury over antisemitism - but this is not the first time the former Shadow Education Secretary has been criticised on this topic. A pity the Labour Leader didn't act the same with Jimmy Savile when he was in charge of the CPS, he would have saved some kids....🤬🤬🤬 Usually when theres this much backlash it turns out to be true eventually Let’s face it, he needed a reason to get rid of her. She was a far left liability.

Editorial: Labour lost its integrity over antisemitism – sacking Rebecca Long-Bailey will bring it backEditorial: This is a political as well as a moral matter. Ignoring it would have neutered any attacks the party leader makes on the behaviour of those in power Seems a bit rich coming from the paper that published the article that got her sacked. In the little movie below, a former Israeli minister explains how the Jewish lobby around the world explores the industry of 'anti-semitism' Utter bullshit. And Rebecca Long Bailey did not do anything which could remotely be construed as antisemitism.
