I've checked if there's already a thread and couldn't find one...
If you're a Labour voter how do you feel about AR's comments this weekend (calling Johnson scum etc)?
I find her exasperating. I can't stand this gov or Boris by the way, but her manner of speaking is so bloody unprofessional! She thinks two wrongs make a right and that just because he's said something terrible things it gives her the right to do the same. I'm trying to teach my toddler not to take this approach in life!
Poor Kier Starmer - the Labour Party is so unwieldy he is unable to call her out on her inappropriate behaviour as the Corbynistas will come out fighting, so all he can do is distance himself from her comments. She's handed Boris so much ammunition for PMQ's.
Other sensible shadow cabinet are doing the same whilst privately despairing of her and rolling their eyes.
She is too aggressive in her tone and constantly sounds like she's picking a fight. You don't see Harriet Harman speaking in that way, even when she's incredibly passionate about an injustice.
AR is making Labour a laughing stock and she has no place on the front bench in my opinion. It's a shame as I really respect how far she's come in terms of overcoming her dysfunctional upbringing which she's talked about. But she is not a good role model if she thinks shouting and being aggressive is a professional and appropriate way to debate.
What do others think?
