They must. We rightly expect far better of those who run our lives and make our laws. There has been some quite appalling, if not necessarily illegal, behaviour going on in Westminster for years and it needs to be rooted out whether it's the abuse of privilege/power, the expenses system or those of other political persuasions - both male and female.

Re: Labour MP's homophobic & sexist remarks
As this thread seems to be following the developing more widespread story, maybe it's time to change the title to something more appropriate and less party political.
Cheers

Re: Labour MP's homophobic & sexist remarks
Some leading Labour folks seem to be confused about when Labour found out about the allegations against O'Hara.

Nice try Dave but there's no balance round here !
I see the OP is still in denial and his browser is still stuck on the 'order-order' website (someone please fix it for him !). Just to balance things out here's another 36 culprits....

Re: Labour MP's homophobic & sexist remarks
Here's another list from that well known Tory mouthpiece:

More names will follow. We'll see who acts quickest and most decisively on this.

We already have old chap. One leader has suspended an MP, the other has so far done nothing. Was that not on 'order-order' ?

The IRA Terrorist Sympathiser and his other IRA supporting cohorts took some time to react, Corbyn also did not attend a sexual harassment meeting last week for one his own female Labour MPs, what gives ?

They did take time to suspend him and they shouldn't have. However the Tories need to do the same considering the outrage they had at Labour for this, especially since these allegations are worse. This problem spans all parties and professions.

Re: Labour MP's homophobic & sexist remarks
Agree, Damien, I take umbrage at Mr K’s opinion that somehow the Labour Party has the moral high ground here. They don’t and never will, while Corbyn, Abbott and McDonnell are running the comedy show, that is Labour.

In truth, I’m actually pissed off with both Conservatives and Labour. The next Election, be it 5 years or 5 months, I may have voter apathy.

No one has the moral high ground here as this problem is not just across the political divide but across many spheres of society sadly as is becoming clear as every day goes by as for too long some turned a blind eye to all this and pretended that these things were not happening but now the genie is out of the bottle l expects quite a fair bit to be revealed from now onwards.

Who does one pick as both are pretty bad IMO and at the end of the day as the voter has to pick the best of a pretty bad bunch sadly.

It's called 'zero tolerance'.

Re: Labour MP's homophobic & sexist remarks
Lots of questions about these 30 or MPs and when May knew. This could get quite bad.

This could get bad for a whole lot of people. Very few people seem to have come out of this with much credit to be honest.
