Delighted to be back in the Countdown studio after another enforced lockdown, BUT this latest lockdown has given me an opportunity to consider my future life and I’ve decided it’s a good time to step down at the end of my contract in the New Year.

As an Anglo-Irish lapsed Catholic, raises to abhor bigotry, I am astonished at the blunt assaults and trickster arguments fired at my friend and colleague

@UKLabour
You’ve admitted you have a problem with Antisemitism. Your leader has admitted you have a problem with antisemitism.
One of your councillors is twisting my words to my employer to suit her own agenda.

This is either just sloppy Labour admin or it’s a cynical slight I suggest it’s the latter. As an Anglo Irish lapsed catholic raised to abhor bigotry, I urge non Jews to stand up and loudly voice their disgust at the abuse levelled by anti semites at our fellow Jewish citizens.

Hands off Jo Brand. I doubt there is a more decent,kind and honourable woman in the country. So she slipped up and then apologised, not something that members of our third rate class are prone to do.

When the sticky stuff hits the fan and we realise the extent of the Brexit disaster, Boris and the boys who sold us the lies to steer us into this mess will have quietly legged it to teach in obscure US universities, well out of harms way. We won’t see them for dust.
I genuinely do not understand how the men at the centre of this mess are allowed to be unavailable. Johnson, Cameron, Gove are the central players. If they were minor celebs caught in a sex scandal they would be run to ground. Our journalists seem to be craven puppets.
