    There will be unsuitable appointments from all races that make up the parliament of a diverse population. Some will be bigoted and found out, some will be incompetent and found out, white, black, Asian, christian, Muslim, Jew. The question is which ones do we choose to highlight and why. The Brexit party had by far the highest number of controversial representatives making dubious bigoted comments but this seems to bypass many on here as they focus on the Labour Party. As already said, the Conservative leader has referred to picaninnies, bum boys and letter boxes and he is the leader of the whole life for backed by many on here. So why do you choose to focus just on these three, and of ethnic minorities, when talking about controversial mps?

    As already said, the in disappointed in the appointment of Shah but will keep an open mind on Kahn. His comments on Israel were 12 years ago and don't appear to represent his current views as far as I can see. Whatever party you are from I don't think you should be damned for your isolated comments that are not repeated and apologised for and I would hope that Starmer knows him well enough in his career to make this appointment knowing full well his previous comments. I'm willing to give them time and show what they can do. There are 30 appointments in the Shadow cabinet and whilst the extreme centrist minority such as Kerr will want any trace of the left excluded, thankfully Starmer is showing to want to encourage a genuine broad church in the Labour Party, the very thing the centrist plp mps said that Corbyn was not doing. I'm pleased that we are not swinging from one extreme (such as Corbyn was an extreme) to the other. I wish Khan and Shah well if they have truly learned and changed their views, and I wish them quickly exposed and dismissed of not.

    Ask yourselves why the people who actually do work in this country have turned their backs on the labour party? They should have rebranded 10 years ago.

    Why don’t we make anything in this country?

    Keep going on about people being dimwits and the like. You seem like a right intelligent individual.

    What are you doing for society exactly? Not enough handouts come your way. Is that the problem.

    The amount of people who expect their ar$es to be wiped for them is staggering.

    Keep safe

    Howdy if you are referring to mike miller with your comments. I know him reasonably well and...he is and he has

    He and the likes of his type are one of the reasons why we hopefully will now have people who will have the knowledge to fight this bug. Being useful to society is not just about producing and flogging things though yes thats important. You contribute i n your way to the effort and others do it in other ways.

    Everybody has a part to play in this crisis from people who just simply follow the isolation rules to those who make big decisions about it.

    It aint owt to do with arses wiping...

    Just a thought

    Don't blow a fuse owd lad...

    Take care...

    Is that my tag Roly.? You trying to make it stick? Haha.

    BTW I’ve voted Labour more times than any other party since 1983.

    Does that make me a liar as well?

    Just out of interest why is 83 the cut off? Was that the first time you could vote. What made you vote Labour? Thatcher was in full flight and Kinnock leader of the Labour Party.

    Not saying you haven't howdy if you are referring to my comments about Kerr. My issue with Kerr is that his opinions are inconsistent with what he says.

    FWIW I became pissed off myself with the Labour party under Blair. I am no acolyte of the Labour party myself but no other party has ever floated my boat. To me they are the best of a bad bunch..

    The world is crying out for a better political system in my eyes and I think it may be forced on us in a way by global issues. i would doubt if it would happen in my lifetime but it WILL come as a necessity because if it doesn't the human race will be knacked...

    RIP Has a tentative link to MM. He was a co-writer of the famous Four Yorkshiremen sketch.
