She announces today's column will be her last as she has a new job.One of the worst columnists in any British newspaper, she writes about British politics from 3,000 miles away in the US.I wonder who will succeed her ?

If they're such nobodies, why are the Corbynistas waging war against the BBC because one of them agreed to resign on The Daily Politics? Surely there are far more important issues to rage about. Or are they not such nobodies after all? (Yes, I know about the deleted blog etc. There are still many far more important issues ... unless the Corbynistas were just looking for an excuse to try to bully the BBC into even weaker scrutiny of Corbyn and Co and somehow see that is a very important accomplishment to aim for.)

Hey Veri...

Interesting points, I spend an immense time on social media (my job), and have been amazed that the most intolerance, stereotyping, single-mindedness and indeed bullying appears to come from the supposed Corbynistas, it'll be interesting to see as this trend becomes more identified and evidenced, how the Corbynistas will maintain their delusions of holding some sort of moral high ground over us mere mortals.

She didn't sound as stupid as this on Question Time last week!
Can you really pick up an accent in a short period and then loose it just as fast?

Highly unlikely. She's a sly opportunist, but a complete intellectual lightweight from what I've seen and read.

She should go back to writing bestselling chick lit type novels as Louise Bagshawe.

Never liked her since her risible performance on HIGNFY, for which she was rightly vilified.

Let's hope she also gives up her dreadful Question Time appearances.
