As much as I despise most labour MPs, I really can't believe that any of them mocked this Tory cerebral palsy sufferer as being some kind of spastic as is being reported in some quarters. Surely it was just general jeering, I don't know. Anyone seen the footage?

I've not seen the footage but I can well believe it. House of Commons is a classic bullying jeering bear pit.

WHS.

I read once that when female MPs stood up they used to shout "melons" and make cupping gestures.

Not as bad as mocking someone for celebral palsy, but these people are meant to run the country.

So CUK General would be good training then?
