A short but insightful piece on American Thinker. An extract:
One politician who used Gove’s joke for her own ends was the Labour MP Jess Phillips. (Phillips once said that the equivalent to the mass sexual assaults by Muslims in Cologne occurred every week –- by white men — in a single Birmingham city-center street.) She’s well-known for being purer than pure when it comes to these issues. That is, she virulently anti-“Tory” and also a massively self-conscious feminist and self-selling politician. She wrote:
“Michael Gove just left the studio without his dignity.”
In other words, Gove’s joke has been used for political ends and/or for moral grandstanding.
Jess “Motormouth” Phillips is a disgrace to the British political system, a gobbie Brumie who will probably be ‘Trotskised’ the minute the revolution she is pushing for takes place. Even the Comrades can’t stand the self-promoting hack, who crowbars her way into any dispute with the subtleness of Janet Street-Porter. If only there was a theme song entitled “First up against the wall”, we could play it whenever she came on TV.

Nice to know I’m not alone in hearing the sound of nails on a chalkboard whenever she’s called to speak in public…
