The new Dianne Abbott appreciation thread
Discussion
She, along with Corbyn, is the best advert for a continued Tory Government and their lack of awareness of how a "2nd party" is supposed to hold the ruling party to task is amazing and worrying at the same time. If Labour had a leader who was more of centralist "Blair" type they'd have swept the Tories away by now.

I saw, and very nearly bumped into, the fragrant Ms Abbott today, behind Liverpool Street station. Can only imagine she was looking for the duty free shop and her boarding gate.
She was probably leathered. Diabetic you know. But no stranger to a bottle of vino or two then a slap up curry. Burwood said:
I'd love to see an itemised list of every penny claimed on expenses. I think all MPs expenses should be an open book, right down to that pie and chips.
Is there any reason why they shouldn't publish on line their expenses ? At least we would know every penny spent would be thoroughly checked and questioned.Burwood said:

You pretty much can on the website. It has a list of expenses and has a header for expenses under £1 and over £1000.Diane is clearly a coffee fan as she expensed a coffee machine for ~£192 and £121 for coffee in May. That’s a lot of nespresso capsules!
