Just now Labour MPs prevented debate on a new law to protect children and single sex spaces.
Instead they used parliamentary time to discuss ferret name choices.
@Keir_Starmer is terrified of debate on safeguarding & his MPs actively work to ignore the concerns of constituents.

What does that mean ferret name choices? As in a ferret, furry animal?

I’ve had an email response from my GC conservative MP:

Thank you for your email - just to let you know that, further to your email, I have remained in London today in order to be present for the Private Members Bills.

When raising this issue makes Labour look like a bunch of gutless muppets wanting a fridge to hide in, do they really think the Tories won't now do this repeatedly?

Leafstamp · 15/03/2024 16:42

Labour are idiots. This is just more evidence that they don't care about women and child safeguarding. It will serve Labour right when (not if) the Tories exploit this.

FoulWrinkledWitch · 15/03/2024 16:07

Hell will freeze over before I vote Labour again.

Froodwithatowel · 15/03/2024 15:18

Clip of Sally Anne Hart saying in parliament that Labour were desperately trying to avoid the debate because frightened and didn't care about protecting children, and Truss has put up a message on X pointing out that Labour intentionally blocked this.

Revolting people. And that's 'socialism'. Or identified as, anyway.

Leafstamp · 15/03/2024 15:11

Agree with all of the previous posts about Labour.

MississippiAF · 15/03/2024 15:06

Never Labour.

Also to be remembered the next time the usual posters come on other threads to tell us why we simply MUST vote Labour to improve things for women and girls

domineastronomy · 15/03/2024 15:00

Absolute shambles. Disgusted with Labour.

Whether the Truss bill gets a reading or not, Labour's behaviour is noted.

Its a real concern for after the election.

Although if anyone from labour come here for a bit of electioneering, it'll be an interesting question to ask - why did so many of you block child safeguarding debate?

Labour are utterly hopeless and lacking commitment to women’s rights

Any idea that they want to protect women’s spaces and safeguard dc is defunct if they try this hard to not bloody talk about it

I’m more disturbed by them now than I was at 9am this morning.

I'm sure that LT was asked to give another date. Couldn't catch it though.

Yes she was. But the same thing will happen. There were about 10 bills postponed to the same date. Unless her bill is the first of the day. Will it be? 🤔

domineastronomy · 15/03/2024 14:50

Hopefully it'll be first up.

Yes. Labour I am Out. The question now is who do we vote for.

I don’t think it’s happening.

Labour have blocked it today

I am not ONE BIT SURPRISED by Labour’s behaviour. The Labour Party has lost its way because of its preference for postmodernist politics over class-based politics and as a result they have lost my good will and support.

Redrosetat · 15/03/2024 14:45

I’m hoping this is their version of an interval- an adjournment. If you look at the agenda..

Namechange285 · 15/03/2024 14:39

I'm confused, does this mean it's not happening today?

domineastronomy · 15/03/2024 14:32

Wtf is happening now?

domineastronomy · 15/03/2024 14:28

Do you think that a number of MPs are instructed to write a speech of say 40 mins then turn up to filibuster?

FoulWrinkledWitch · 15/03/2024 14:16

He knows exactly what he's doing, and so do we.
