Having a hyphen in your name is an import issue it seems:

But it is written as Long-Bailey on her Twitter page (although her handle uses an underscore instead).
Yes that's because twitter doesn't allow hyphens in the username, you are forced to use underscore if you want a "separator" character in there. Stupid BBC!

Indeed. In my job, I spend a lot of time manipulating data using software that will not allow certain characters in fields and/or variable names, and often spaces and hyphens are not allowed, and so they have to be replaced with an underscore.

An example of the insanity that Corbyn and his ilk have unleashed. On the one hand well done to Jess Phillips for condemning it, but funny how she and the other candidates were awfully quiet about it until now.

Yep, the very definition of antisemitism is to hold jews collectively accountable for the actions of israel

When this was pointed out to the many corbynites supporting this BoD initiative, their defence was that because the BoD does not represent ALL jews, it's not holding jews collectively responsible, just those represented by the BoD. The 'logic' is simply mind warping

The logic is terrifying, morelike. I'm no fan of the Tories under Boris. But, these people are dangerous.

Just imagine what the reaction would be if you asked them whether Muslim organisations should be held accountable for the actions of Iran or Saudi Arabia.

Might be due a Parrot but you do realise that is a fake website made to look like The Mirror?

I was accused of not including genuine pictures of Rebecca Long Bailey in my recent candidate picture list.
Here she is at the invisible marrow judging competition she recently attended.

Ta..

The original link, wasn't displaying quite like the real Mirror site and I have seen other fake news websites playing this trick (mostly around Bitcoin Scams)

Or maybe she is showing how short two thick planks are.

Lisa Nandy has just been on Andrew Neil. I thought she was one of the more intelligent candidates before that.

She is as stupid as the rest of them.

She's not bright, I don't think she's that bad though. RLB, Phillips and FourBelly are another level.

TinyMouth RLB pulling ahead of Max Headroom in latest polls apparently

How long is Lady Hyacinth Fourbellies going to bother to waste her time and everyone else's, staying in this two horse race.

Anyway more importantly why are they replacing Jeremy ?
He has shown by his concern about the racial coverage of Meghan Markle that he is still an incredibly important and relevant politician.
By this time most ex leaders are way away from the limelight - not this Jeremy
