Hopefully the clear Mrs May will be gone on Friday as well.

Sorry....some explanation needed.

She's having a bit of time off campaigning because she's "ill".

 

[bha100]

Is she suffering from verbal diarrhoea?

 

[Mo Gosfield]

Oh no!!.....not another one gone to Newcastle!!!

 

[simmo]

Is this the first case of a home secretary being removed from office BEFORE he/she gets the job?

 

[Marshy]

its a vote winner for labour moving her aside whatever the reason.

She's being replaced by Lyn Brown as Shadow Home Secretary.

Needed to be done for many different reasons. Should have been done earlier of course.

I note Boris is still around though.

Corbyn's statement read that she was a "taking a break from the campaign", I doubt she will ever return to the role. Could be a real vote winner for Labour.

The campaign has less than 24 hours to run. Just when will she be returning to the campaign?

Is there nothing Labour can't fix?

But is it in there manifesto?

This is very obviously a signal that - in the extremely unlikely event that Corbyn will be forming a government - Abbott will not be playing any central role.
Should be reassuring to all of those who's main (only) argument against Labour seems to be 'but Abbott'

I was talking in terms of the role in general. She won't be returning to the role of Shadow Home Secretary or in the very unlikely event of the Tories not winning an overall majority, she will not become the Home Secretary.
