Sean 6,309 Posted June 12, 2017 Thought Diane Abbott should have her own thread.Lots of rumors of ill health and some bizarre media appearances recently (although she has never been one not to put her foot in it) but some of her appearances could be indicative of something being seriously wrong with her.Her colleague Barry Gardiner says she is coming to terms with "a long term health problem".Could be something or nothing.Has currently stepped down from her role as Shadow Home Secretary.Any thoughts people? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Youwanticewiththat 611 Posted June 12, 2017 Aye - she said in her leaked emails she had diabetes - but I'm guessing she has Alzheimer's. Hand in glove with Type II. Teresa May has Type I (diagnosed about 4 years ago). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
msc 18,421 Posted June 12, 2017 Thoughts? Something is up, legit, but I don't know what. The enclosing of ranks from her friends and the genuine worry from others is a bit ominous, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,309 Posted June 12, 2017 At first I thought it was just that she is incredibly stupid but I am starting to think it is a bit more than that especially the slowed speech.She has always talked slowly but now it is getting so slow it is suspicious.Mini stroke maybe? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I read Barry`s words in the papers I assumed it was a cover but he sounds genuinely concerned here.Either that or he is a bloody great actor! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Youwanticewiththat 611 Posted June 12, 2017 O wotshisname Peter Falc? Fawk? Falk - he has the Alz Heimer's - if I remember rightly. Had a friend, similar age to La Abbott who went from diagnosis of Early-Onset to Dearly Departed within 18 months - grim all round. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had a friend, similar age to La Abbott who went from diagnosis of Early-Onset to Dearly Departed within 18 months - grim all round. Wow, that is fast! Did your friend have a symptom that was uncommon, besides the usual ones? (Just curious and worried about that disease. I am the youngest of my family and most of my friends and many people I know are already showing the common symptoms. Very sad.) Thanks if you can answer.

That was my thought too, I thought she was just really dumb (she worried me most about a Labour Government) but I'm thinking maybe early dementia or Alzheimers, particularly with how concerned her colleagues are.

Sean 6,309 Posted June 13, 2017 Yeah she does not look nearly 64 years old.Big question is whether or not she is ill or we are just noticing her innate stupidity to a higher degree as she has worked her way to near the top of the political ladder.That police speech does seem to show she is getting lost.

msc 18,421 Posted June 13, 2017 The ranks have closed, far as I know. Ulitzer's poking about online - see if they know anything? They were pretty good chasing up the Kaufman smoke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 12,558 Posted June 13, 2017 I don't know is the basic answer. The only reason I knew Kaufman was ill was I noticed he hadn't attended Parliament for 8 months then I asked a Mancunian who would know and he confirmed he was ill. As for Diane, she seemed absolutely fine at her count on election night... seems to me she's just thick as shit. Still, her majority rocketed in Hackney. She got 75% of the vote. Evidence if needed that in places like Hackney, you could put up a dead donkey and as long as it had a red rosette, it'd win. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
