Emily Thornberry is totally unsuitable as Shadow Defence Secretary suggests Matthew Steeples
This week Jeremy Corbyn, quite possibly the worst Leader of the Opposition ever, appointed quite possibly the worst ever Shadow Defence Secretary ever.
In choosing Emily Thornberry (AKA Lady Nugee) – a woman who patronisingly announced: “‘I actually have quite a lot more experience than people think I do – Corbyn did the predictable and shoved two fingers up at his critics but he also did the unacceptable and appointed a woman who not only is anti-Trident but also the recipient of a donation of £50,000 from Leigh Day, a law firm currently under investigation over its handling of claims against British soldiers who fought in Iraq.
In an attempt to justify her position, Thornberry, the Member for Islington South and Finsbury, continued by stating: “I don’t think being against nuclear weapons is that zany”. She then pointed out that she’d once been appointed an honorary lieutenant colonel while working as a barrister on courts-martial yet neglected to mention she’d also been forced to resign from a previous position due to sneering at an image of the flag of St George.
With her at the helm, all we would get is a might fine mess. In the unlikely event that happened, all one could say would be: “God help the Labour Party, God help the military and God help Britain”.

Someone should tell her to rod off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will let it be me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are so unfunny. You have no idea who she is.
By the way, I have just seen a picture of Rod!!!!
He has something very much in common with Thornberry: they both have faces that resemble bottoms….sort of shapeless, characterless and very ugly!!!!!!!!!!
It’s rather droll that the Moron of the decade makes his asinine comment on the ‘Moron of the moment’.
Peter. Stop it this instant. I counted fourteen exclamation marks. That’s more than your quota for 2016.
Glenmore, I am worried the buffoon Rod runs a cult devoted to the ! and has subliminally ‘got at me’.
A frightening prospect….
For God sake don’t mention the war, she can’t do any worse than Frau Merkel. The truth is the new hate speech. If you get to uncomfortably close to the truth you will get banned or prosecuted.
