“ Scum “ remark in The Commons.
Absolutely no surprise whatever that it came from the mouth of Corbyn groupie Angela Rayner.........deputy leader of The Labour Party no less.
It actually came out more like “ Thcum “ due to her slight speech impediment and Janet Street-Porter denture styling..........probably an ill advised choice of word for her to select given her general difficulty in pronunciation of anything beginning with an “ S “.
Can you imagine the furore if a male Tory MP had used the same term to a female Labour MP?
Boris got slaughtered for using the “ Humbug “ comment a few months ago.
To use the “ Scum “ word actually shows you up as someone who has a visceral hatred of someone and it’s indicative of a breed that purvey the Labour Party these days.
I thinks Rayner has got off lightly so far and that Starmer should ask for her resignation.
I thought the Deputy Speaker actually handled the situation well and really put her back in her tiny box!
Not a good look Miss Rayner.........you need to give your head a major wobble.
