Labour Liability Diane Abbott Withdrawn From BBC Show

https://blogs.spectator.co.uk/2017/0...vanishing-act/

Diane Abbott was due to appear on the BBC Westminster Hour programme on Sunday but was replaced by Barry Gardiner.

After a series of "car crash" interviews and with her inability to understand the numbers, has Abbott now become too much of a liability even for the Looney Party?

Some of her previous car crash performances:

"Hair-raising Andrew Marr interview"

I'm glad I'm hoping this may be beginning of the end for her, we have better people in back rows who can do her job far better. I would say though her constituents seem to think she is great, so perhaps she's a better MP than front bencher.
