It warmed my cockles this morning,
Thursday, May 20th, 2010to hear that ex-MP for Hackney Diane Abbot, one of the few women in the Parliament and the only Black woman MP I know of (there was Oona King from a good few years ago) has thrown her hat into the ring to ballot to become theĀ new Labour leader after Gordon Brown stepped after the election.
She’s a sassy and highly intelligent woman who spars with another ex-MP, Michael Portillo on BBC political show This Week, every Thursday evening, with that host with the funny hair.
How refreshing seeing her amongst all the blokes, not that I don’t love you men, but, you know what I mean. I wish her the very best of luck.
