Overheard on the Twitter, Kerry McCarthy MP wishing that a drunk had been killed before he could ‘breed’.

 

 

Indeed, he might:

Shhhh !

I think we all know what would happen.

Commentators and columnists would refer to it as a stick to beat the man whenever they didn’t want to face an argument.

Political Scrapbook would bring it up for years to come whenever the Minister made a speech or if it was a slow news day for gossip.

In other words, we would have a reprise of the “George Osborne Experience”.

The last one of these I can recall was back in January this year when Iain Dale, far less prominent than a Minster or Shadow Minister was resisting having a drunken woman sitting next to him.

On that occasion there was a great Twit-kerfuffle and Abby O Reilly even wrote a (pretty good) 2000 word essay about it.

But never mind, Comrades, it was just a joke this time!
