Why The Gloom?

I have been critical of Jackie Walker.

But there is a very particular recurring theme among the enemies of Jeremy Corbyn and of his supporters.

Jess Phillips got famous by telling Diane Abbott, who is old enough to be her mother, to "fuck off".

Phillips has since been installed as Chair of the Women's PLP (whatever that is, but even so) in place of Dawn Butler.

Those who feel entitled to flounce back into the Shadow Cabinet, which no one has invited them to do, wish to displace, among other people, two black women.

And now, Jackie Walker.

The anti-Corbynites have a real problem with black women. They need to be called out on it.
