Cronyism?


I see in the news today that Diane Abbott has been appointed by Jeremy Corbyn as the new shadow Home Secretary. I was surprised to see Ms Abbott promoted to such an important job, I've always disliked her approach to politics and also her media attention grabbing sensationalist style. Her opinions on topics such as race and religion are very different from mine although I sense it's probably difficult to gauge what she really thinks, a more fake smile would be difficult to find (even in the house of commons). Being surprised I did a bit of research on her and discovered that she had a relationship (which by all accounts sounds weird) with Corbyn back in the 70s just after the break-up of his marriage; then the penny dropped.
