Laugh. At someone with mental health issues?

[bednobs]

why? is it funny?

[SparklyKid]

It is funny because he went to a private school to avoid mixing with the wrong people. That ended well, ho ho ho.

[bednobs]

you are an idiot.

[SparklyKid]

Quite right bednobs, he is an idiot.

[jno]

I'd have thought you'd empathise with someone with mental health problems

[Patsy33]

Anyone can have mental health issues. Doesn't matter what education you've had.

//You Have To Laugh Really.///

Only if you are a particularly spiteful individual.

Abbott may have been hypocritical in the extreme when sending her son to a fee-paying school......but I am sure *no* parent would wish their child to suffer from mental problems and no other human, surely, would delight that any parent had a child with mental problems....

[ToraToraTora]

"he went to a private school " - you must have that wrong, his mum hates private schools and grammar schools, she tried to close them down, she would only send her child to a comprehensive, surely?

[Bazile]

So no one that's ever gone to private school has ever been in trouble with the authorities ?

So no one else , whether black white yellow or other has ever had children that has been in trouble ?

Why don't you just come clean and admit the purpose of this post - i.e. it because it's Dianne Abbot's son and you hate her

Yes you do give a good impression of being a prat here

[SparklyKid]

This the son of a wannabee home secretary. Jack Straw had a similar problem as I recall.

[douglas9401]

'Mental health issues', a catchall phrase used to excuse bad behaviour, especially when dealing with the wealthy and entitled when they stray from the straight and narrow and get caught.

[jackthehat]

Yup.....delighting in the problems of the children and using them as a big stick to beat the parents with.

Go you....

[ummmm]

He was being treated in hospital.

[pastafreak]

Can you sink any lower...laugh???

As for sending a child to private school,its a parents responsibility to get the best education possible for their child. If local schools are not up to scratch,then private it is if they can afford it. (There's usually help for those who can't)

[hereIam]

douglas, yours is the best post on here as far as I'm concerned.

[anneasquith]

Verging on the really nasty now. Forget his mother, forget who he is. Possibly a young man with mental health problems , it appears he has/ is having treatment.

I agree - but Diane Abbott thinks the rest are fine for .... the rest. Hypocrite.

[SparklyKid]

I have no knowledge of the mental state of her son. I just find it amusing that someone who aspires to be Home Secretary will be embarrassed by this.

[jackthehat]

Ho...ho...ho...ho...ho... :o(
