I thought MPs were bound by some standards of behaviour?

Yesterday the leader of the SNP at WM called his peers 'rabid gammon', which was shocking, but what I found more disturbing was Llloyd Russell-Moyle's verbal attack on Miriam Cates (clip above).

I actually found his behaviour frightening and alarming, and can't imagine how it must feel to have that venom directed at you by a colleague - let alone the slanderous accusations made.

Is it possible to make a complaint to the Labour Party about his behaviour?

Seeing it spill over into "real life" has given everybody a shock I think.

I thought this and I hope it has.

I’m so glad this creepy weird behaviour has been called out today

I'm glad to see so many people finally going WTF. The TRA s have been behaving like this for so long. Seeing it spill over into "real life" has given everybody a shock I think.

I've said this before but Honestly the only reason i keep paying my membership is so they have to listen to me when they make the mistake of ringing me to see if i would stand as a candidate or to get me to vote for someone. It's worth the money for that alone.

But I'm rapidly not seeing any way forward for me and the Labour party with the way it is at the moment. It's to ill. The rot is too deep. They need to go scorched earth and start again.

Between this, and the "eat shit" chants aimed at Starmer (at a "protest" with someone who's done 30yrs for seriously violent crime), I can't see how it's not a gift for one of the Sunday papers.

Plus LRM and his idea that schools should teach minors how to "safely" auto asphyxiate. And all their insane statements like this of Whittome's (also at the "eat shit" event):

And the female MPs who claimed not to really know what happened to Duffield in Parliament this week.

And Creasy and drag time:

And Nandy and the rights of male rapists to be incarcerated with women:

Come on journos, this is like shooting fish in a barrel. And I haven't even listed the SNP or the Greens!!!

I honestly can't see how he can be allowed to get away with his behaviour. It's not just us on here going what the fuck. It's everywhere going what the fuck isn't it.

Wonder if the obnoxious little bully is still proud of himself. Bet this isn't getting the Twitter reaction he thought it would.

Yes, that's way beyond normal behaviour. I did notice Paul Bristow sitting close to Miriam Cates, it's a fucking abominable state of affairs in 2023 that a female MP needs a fucking male escort in the HoC.

Sack this shit.

Thank you Paul Bristow MP for putting yourself between Miriam and that deranged lunatic. If Starmer doesn't act after this he can whistle. It really is shocking behaviour.

I’ve just used the form posted on this thread to complain. First time I’ve ever done anything like that, but was disgusted by his behaviour!

SinisterBumFacedCat · 20/01/2023 18:48

Jesus how does he still have a job?

ResisterRex · 20/01/2023 18:33

2023 and women MPs need male colleagues to protect them from angry male opposition!

What a shit show!

I appreciate Paul Bristow MP for noticing and putting himself between Russell Mole and Miriam Cates but fuck me, shouldn’t be necessary! It’s her workplace!

I know it's a weird one. I'm glad he's noticed the threat and the risk and put himself between Lloyd and lloyds target, but they are MPs in Parliament. In the 21st century. It's so what the fuck? I'm just gobsmacked. I'm glad i hadn't known about this when i did all my complaints.

The guy that tweeted that it's the guy that's sat next to Miriam putting himself between Lloyd and her once Lloyd had crossed over isn't it? I've got to get my eyes tested this year!!

Of course it is I've just read the text in the tweet instead of peering at the pictures.

Builders' sites yes. Had the same. But this is an enclosed place of work (place of law!) covered in cameras. What possessed him?!

This was supposed to be one of those awful memories we all have from 30+ years ago

Honestly I think the vast majority of men would never have dared behave like this back then. Or thought to. It's not the vast majority now, but there's a worrying large enough contingent - and that contingent seems to be increasing in number.

Oh I know i think i did then say some, but i did get more than my fair share as a 16 year old in construction. I honestly can't believe we are back to that shit and worse!

It's not just uneducated idiots anymore though it's supposedly professional educated men entrusted to represent the wishes of thousands of men AND women.

DanseAvecLesLoups · 20/01/2023 17:53

I submitted a formal complaint to the labour party earlier. The man is odious cunt

If the physical attempt at intimidation by moving towards her and staring in an attempt to use his physical size and power to intimidate her, then surely that's a workplace disciplinary offence...

It has to be against the HoP Code of Conduct, surely? The more attention this gets, the better. None of the news sites seem to be reporting him moving to the opposite bench, to intimidate Miriam Cates. Not even the Mail.

DevilinaCardigan · 20/01/2023 16:46

I've complained about him to the Labour party. I made the point that I wouldn't be able to vote for Labour if he is the candidate. prick

A PP said - Sadly with the state of things he’s unlikely to be ousted any time soon- the constituency consists of uni students, Brighton’s gay village and several deprived areas that are getting shat on by the Government on a daily basis.
True, but his area also cover smaller villages that are more traditional than Brighton. My mainly families and rather conservative (small c). At our local primary school there was an outcry when they tried to set up gender neutral toilets. Parents were NOT happy and no one even mentioned the word 'trans'.
