Q. what does the treatment of much maligned MP Diane Abbot tell us about the Labour Party?
Maurice Mcleod suggests quite a lot, and its not so good....
And just in case you've forgotten, in the run up to the 2017 election nearly half of all offensive & abusive tweets sent to female MPs (and this was a lot of tweets) were sent to Diane Abbot.
So, now it looks like the Labour Party is joining in with the Trolls (albeit more subtly).
