Someone let Brendan O'Neill off his leash in the Telegraph

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/05/30/lloyd-russell-moyle-was-parliaments-worst-mp/

Fwiw I don't think LRM is the worst MP, there are many other more deserving candidates. I also agree with PP when they speak up about the good stuff he did as an MP. But the stuff that blotted his copy book with me is entirely on him. No-one forced him to say or behave in the misogynistic ways that he did. Unfortunately, it's likely to be what he's mostly remembered for.

Lloyd Russell-Moyle was Parliament’s worst MP

The good people of Brighton Kemptown truly deserve better than a sanctimonious twerp who encapsulates the worst aspects of the new Left

Ironic that Brendan O'Neil, himself very much a Lexiter, is criticising LRM over Brexit. Yes, it was a really shit idea, Brendan, and you may think it's the finest flowering of British democracy, but I can't agree.

lcakethereforeIam · 30/05/2024 15:26

The Brexit criticisms were wasted on me too, but I very much enjoyed the rest of the article.

Appalonia · 30/05/2024 17:28

Oh that article was beautiful to read, thanks for posting!😂

IwantToRetire · 30/05/2024 17:31

It read to me as though Brendan O'Neill has been storing up well document instances and examples about LRM posted on FWR.

Could almost swear some of it was word for word!

I wouldn’t be surprised if there is a lefty purge going on. I keep hearing people like Alastair Campbell saying that KS is more ruthless than people realise, perhaps he is!

I agree, I think there is some very tactical work going on here. They've saved all the receipts and are defenestrating people at exactly the right time, when there's no way they can get back into the system before the election.

Although it may piss off a few hardliners, I also think that the act of being hard on Corbynites is also designed to appeal to wavering voters who are afraid of Labour being too left wing if they get in.

duc748 · 30/05/2024 17:52

Been watching similar behaviour from Left and Right of the Labour Party all my life. Labour leadership 'acting tough' in the run-up to an election.

ValueAddedTaxonomy · 30/05/2024 18:03

God. Much as I am glad to see the back of Russell Moyle, I see nothing to admire in that vile Telegraph article.
"Labour was once a party of real men." Fuck off Brendan WhoeverYouAre.

I don't know what the allegation is. I suspect that Keir Starmer is having a tidy up of people who are likely to cause him problems - which this guy is.

Angela Rayner may want to watch her back then....

I see various of LRM's achievements have been noted. Let's add that he's God's Gift as a representative to every obnoxious male school bully still nursing a grievance over his schooldays because the girls in his class were able to retreat to the girls' toilets to escape his harassment.

Every time I see someone say that mixed-sex unisex toilets would be okay for women in a workplace where no strangers were present, I think of LRM's pattern of intimidating behaviour towards female co-workers across both parties.

In fact his grotesque behaviour towards Miriam Cates - was in fact directly after she had been discussing men in female toilets, and how she’d been scared / intimidated.

Pity KS couldn't have shown some mettle beforehand over LRM's behaviour towards Miriam Cates and Rosie Duffield.

BlessedKali · 30/05/2024 22:57

Anyone who so vehemently encourages the breakdown of safeguarding, and puts on such an obvious dramatic show (a lie) in doing so, I believe, has nefarious ulterior motives. And when it comes to the breaking down of safeguarding around children, it is a red flag.

I do wonder what the complaint from 8 years ago is regarding. I have my suspicions.

SinnerBoy · 31/05/2024 02:51

I see that Angela Rayner has taken Sir Cowardy Custard to task for trying to get rid of Diane Abbot and Fazia Shaheen. I wonder if Angela has much future now?

Floisme · 31/05/2024 07:08

I'm pretty sure the deputy party leader is an elected position so Starmer can't do much about Angela Rayner. If I remember correctly, he once tried to move her from her shadow cabinet post and she jrefused to go!

EasternStandard · 31/05/2024 07:11

I can’t imagine Rayner going. Starmer is hardly going for strong ones with Abbott and co

Easy pickings and hiding somewhere over it all

Yes, I agree.

Someone upthread said there was an issue with this person saying something which could be considered antisemitic. I expect that Keir Starmer is doing an antisemitism house clean. Should he get elected, he will have to make statements on Israel / Palestine.

He isn’t very interested (really) in misogyny.
