I don’t follow. It’s their exclusive.That’s for Daily Mail written all over it.

Covered above - almost certainly will be sub judice but until such time that he is arrested and brought before a magistrate, it isn’t.This case will be sub judice
I bet shouting “ come here c u n t y” in the park is embarrassing?He named his dog after Jeremy Corbyn.
Well of course it wouldThese 2 comments come across as a bit like the 'she deserved to be raped because of the way she dressed / she acted beforehand' type excuses being made to justify an abhorrent action. They appear to be wild speculation at this point, being used to try to justify and excuse that sort of violent behaviour and to try to paint it as an acceptable form of action in the 'right' circumstances
If that really were the case here and there really were those sorts of comments / threats being made beforehand (by the victim in this case) then why not just simply call the Police and report it rather than resort to violence ?
I wonder if there would be the same view / attempt to excuse the behaviour being made if this had involved an MP from a different political party instead.
First elected to parliament in 2017.Another one of Keir Starmer’s high-quality candidates
er … did you misunderstand my post?Covered above - almost certainly will be sub judice but until such time that he is arrested and brought before a magistrate, it isn’t.
Edit: nobody has said anything libellous and have sensibly stuck to commenting on the content of the videos. Any speculation made has actually been in his defence, including possible mitigating factors such as provocation.
Sub judice would not apply at this time. The video is being shown and commented on by every major news source.
*sigh*. You’re a decent bloke but I really can’t be bothered with you sometimes. Have a good day.er … did you misunderstand my post?
I said it “will” be. I also said ”suffice to say l” as part of the same sentence - therefore the ‘speculating’ comment refers to me not wanting to speculate. I haven’t read the whole thread so have no idea what has been ‘covered above’ anyway.
Where did I accuse anyone of being ‘libellous’ or there was anything wrong with the video being shown
Your post was unnecessarily defensive and my comment taken out of context.
Ah apologies then. I misunderstood your post.*sigh*. You’re a decent bloke but I really can’t be bothered with you sometimes. Have a good day.
Being punched in the head is never a good thing, in a controlled setting with padded gloves or otherwise. I wonder how many of those who 'love boxing' would be willing to try it for themselves. The statistics for brain injuries/CTE are pretty grim and not always overt in boxers until much later in life.Prize fighters are skilled professionals, fighting in a controlled setting, rather than pissed up on concrete streets with no rules or oversight at 3am.
Fair enough for your view on boxing (I love it) which I completely understand, but I don’t think drunken street fights are quite the same personally, however fundamentally they seem on the surface
I think it's 8 suspended now with Rosie who left completely. A bit careless.So how many of the July 4th intake no longer have the Labour whip?
Agree. The next news will be his arrest.Just saw the later video on Sky News, gets worse every time you see it. Repeatedly whacking the back of the skull of a defenceless person.
Wanker.
Remind me to not comment on posts till I have read the repliesAh apologies then. I misunderstood your post.
Because you quoted me saying the case would be sub judice and that I didn’t want to speculate, I assumed your argument about nobody had been libellous on the thread or it was ok to post the video was directed at me.
edit - ie it sounded that you had taken my post it as a criticism of your thread (which it wasn’t !)
Bearing in mind Reform came second, albeit 15,000 votes behind, Uncle Nigel has already called for a By ElectionAgree. The next news will be his arrest.
The concern is any delayed impact to the victim.Agree. The next news will be his arrest.
As a labour member I am appalled and feel he should resign however I am old enough to remember John Prescott thumping someone again on camera the one Ness said she knew it was meant for her.
Prescott I do believe was not removed from his post did not loose the whip and remained a party member.
How times change
