Oh bugger it fooled me I bought him a rum and black after the programme.

Funny man. His politics and dress sense aren't my cup of tea but he's funny and has both an impressive intellect and admirable drive to make a difference.

I really warmed to him when he did all those marathons going through the pain barrier.

Replaces Christine Shawcroft, who stood down, after calling for a suspended member to be reinstated, despite his retweeting " International Red Cross report confirms the holocaust of 6m Jews was a hoax " ....

She was previously suspended for appearing at a rally defending disgraced Tower Hamlets Mayor, Lutfur Rahman, after he was found guilty of 7 counts of Electoral fraud....

Perhaps, a future leader of the Labour Party, or even future Prime Minister?

He's very witty and creative. Doubt he understands much about "real life" (as lived by your average Brit) though.

Tremendous idea. The lefts equivalent of Boris. The Joker of the pack.

I thought Dianne Abbot was the left's equivalent of Boris?

I doubt they'll give a toss. Labour's NEC, eh? Most people won't have a clue about what it actually is or does, or how its constituted, its machinations etc. Anyway, I don't blame them because it is extremely boring, tedious and deeply dull internal party politics ballocks.

Some people on here are true wind-upers. It's total embarrassment in my book, like when on Question Time Not a single thing going for him and another nail in Labour's coffin.

Should be prosecuted under Trade Description legislation. He keeps getting referred to as a comedian. Only one person in the whole world less funny and that's Russell Brand.

HatfieldClaret · Post by **HatfieldClaret** » Mon Apr 02, 2018 3:08 pm

Neither Izzard nor Brand are particularly funny. Both came across on QT as not very nice at all. Lots to say but vitriolic as hell if you didn't agree with them.

Eddie is he or Eddie isn't he can't make my mind up.

His career in comedy will suffer when people realise he's not as funny as Dianne Abbot.

There is a fine line between someone who is genuinely a man trapped in a woman's body and attention seeking. I think he falls in to the latter category.

BennyD · Post by **BennyD** » Mon Apr 02, 2018 5:04 pm

Personally, I feel it’s somewhat fitting; a joke of a person joining a joke of a party, with neither joke being funny.

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Mon Apr 02, 2018 5:33 pm

Saw him at the Mechanics a few years ago.

Not good.

Started with the preconceived idea that everyone in Burnley was a racist.

Went downhill after that.

With the country being run by clowns

Just a very attention seeking untable individual by his own admission. Good luck to him

Stayingup · Post by **Stayingup** » Mon Apr 02, 2018 7:07 pm

Not sure what he's actually meant to be Hazard. May have high intellect but does ramble on. He's not a politician. That may be good
But really is the best Labour can come up with. They've become a laughing stock. Fit in well then will Hazard

Stayingup · Post by **Stayingup** » Mon Apr 02, 2018 7:08 pm

Oops auto correct
Hazard should read Izzard

Labour really are becoming a pitiful and desperate party. The country is stronger with viable opposition.

That’s enough about Dustbyn, what about Isntard?

He’s been a bit hit and miss this season. On his day though he is comfortably Chelsea’s best player and was a huge actor in their last two championship wins.

That reminds me,It doesn't seem that long ago that Cameron was calling eurosceptics racists, fruitcakes, xenophobic little Englanders...Turns out he was talking about more than half the voting public. Big miscalculation, it's not clever to insult and ridicule people.

I really didn't like Izzard on QT. Lots of attemps at zingers instead of putting across an actual argument.

I really liked Izzard on QT. He single handedly secured thousands of extra votes for Leave during the run up to my side winning in EU referendum.
