Good for her. She's an amazing woman and a fantastic role model.

IsThePopeCatholic · 30/08/2024 21:52

I love Angela. She is a remarkable woman and a passionate politician. You go, Angela!

Jealous? Did nobody invite you on holiday?

CurlewKate · 31/08/2024 08:21

Good good-Rayner didn't go on holiday, did she? During the Parliamentary recess? Say it ain't so!

HermoineFairfax · 31/08/2024 08:33

AR on holiday and dancing does not bother me at all and shows she is human like the rest of us and it is holiday season.

But if this was Boris the knives would be out. Remember the sneery threads that went on and on in Chat, they would've crucified him for throwing the same moves as AR, for being on holiday, for being posh.

Socialist two tier commenting 😀

If it had been Boris, though, you could have put money on it NOT being a parliamentary recess!

And someone else paying for the holiday.

IClaudine · 31/08/2024 09:46

What Blossom and BIWI said!

Boris was on holiday at the start of the pandemic, wasn't he?

Edited as I was wrong about 2011, he did come back from holiday. Eventually!

LoudSnoringDog · 31/08/2024 10:38

Good for her.

This isn't something I can get worked up about.

Burning £50 notes in front of homeless people however......

HRTQueen · 31/08/2024 10:42

She is on holiday in Ibiza and from the videos on sm she looks to be having a great time

do we not go on holiday to enjoy ourselves

YesIthinkso · 01/09/2024 20:10

Aaah so Ange is allowed a holiday. But none of the Tories when they were in government. There used to be uproar if anyone dare take a vacation.

Mumsnet really fucks me off with it’s bias sometimes because it’s so left wing- it really is do as I say and not as I do.

That is simply just not true.

Can you point to threads where there was uproar over MPs being on holiday during recess and in the absence of an emergency situation?

There was uproar when Raab refused to return to oversee the evacuation of Kabul, despite being Foreign Secretary.

Raab: With hindsight I wouldn't have gone on holiday https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-58327088

And when Johnson took two holidays in a month while Parliament was sitting.

https://news.sky.com/story/boris-johnson-on-leave-as-pm-takes-second-foreign-holiday-of-the-summer-12673664

Rayner went when Parliament was in recess and there was no crisis for her to deal with. 🤷‍♀️

Dominic Raab

But the foreign secretary says the idea he was "lounging on the beach" as the Taliban advanced was "nonsense".

But this is patently nonsense! Any Tory (or anyone from any of the other parties) would have been allowed to take their holiday during parliamentary recess. Which is what Angela Rayner is doing now.

That’s not correct - there were Tories on hols this time of year and I remember the threads and the uproar on here… “ How dare they “ etc … yada yada.

Of course Ange is entitled to go to Ibiza and have her holiday - like all of us, but one rule for one and all that..

If you want to start quoting .. shall we start with Kier? And the video of him saying how pensioners mustn’t go hungry or cold in winter .. and how “ it’s not acceptable “

And yet here we are.. and the pensioners heating allowance is taken away as soon as Labour get in.

Its bollocks.

BIWI · 01/09/2024 20:39

Nope. You're speaking nonsense @YesIthinkso There isn't one rule for her and one rule for anyone else. (Unless you're a Daily Mail reader, of course?)

What’s that got to do with MPs’ holidays?

BIWI · 01/09/2024 20:40

Oh, and by the way it's KEIR. At least get his name right if you want to slag him off. Hmm

Not speaking bollocks mate. It’s fact .

The unions have Labour by the bollocks . That’s who.

Err, do you have any inkling about the history of the Labour Party?

I see you have not been able to provide any links to support your assertion that "There used to be uproar if anyone dare take a vacation".

Interesting that you use the word "vacation". Are you from the USA?
