Diane Abbott Accuses Labour MPs Of Wanting To Bomb Syria To Hurt Jeremy Corbyn's Leadership

Diane Abbott has accused Labour MPs who backed Jeremy Corbyn's rivals of plotting to vote in favour of military action against Isis in Syria in order to damage his leadership.

Speaking at a fringe event at the Labour Party conference in Brighton on Monday evening, the shadow international development secretary said "the idea you can have just a little bit of bombing is like being a little bit pregnant".

"I hear that there are Labour MPs, supporters of losing candidates, who think that by voting to support the bombing in Syria, they can strike a blow against our new leader," she said.

"And I say to them, the Labour movement will never forgive people who vote to put British troops in harms way because of internal Labour politics."

Don't worry... they will be protected by their huge cloud of guff!!!

Dianne Abbott has always been an idiot!

Nobody does party paranoia like the Tory Party. They should thank their lucky stars that it was Labour who saved Call me Dave's bacon on the same-sex marraige issue otherwise the Tory rebels who plotted against him would have had him on toast.

I remember John Major muttering away about 'bastards' in his cabinet undermining him at every turn.

Europe has still to come up for the Tories and then the fireworks will fly

And Dianes not wrong, and that would be a terrible reason to vote for war.

Correct

The reality of Islamist barbarity across the region will be the only real reason to vote for action... not some petty disputes within the petty minds of some idiot leftie twats and their overblown delusions of self importance...

It would be   
Someone moral-less enough to not want to try and fight ISIS, might let it sway them

it is a very stupid statement. Why are some not voting to is a better question?
why are they putting Corbyns personal power play above 'human rights/world peace/responsibility'?
