Marmora Man Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Friends of mine are selling these elegant T shirts to make a statement about our esteemed MP - Harriet Harman. Should you be interested in purchasing one at a bargain price of ?9.50 - PM me. You could always use HH's image to polish the car or dust the house with!

willgo Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Don't forget some of us have the misfortune of being 'served' by Irritable Bowel MP. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/4417-harriet-harpus/#findComment-142195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanMacGabhann Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 it is rather more tasteful than the halcyon days of Tory rule when back in the early 90s one noturious ED resident had an obscene tshirt depicting Lilley and Portillo indulging in... well... let's not go there Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/4417-harriet-harpus/#findComment-142213 Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDOldie Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Surely it's Harriet Harperson, she enjoyed one of the best private educations money can buy, educated at the independent St Paul's Girls' School and the University of York. Has not voted on a freedom of information act. Voted for introducing a smoking ban. Voted for introducing ID cards. Voted for introducing foundation hospitals. Voted for introducing student top-up fees. Voted for Labour's anti-terrorism laws. Voted for the Iraq war. Voted against investigating the Iraq war. Voted for replacing Trident.This is all from Wikidlies, but I'm sure it's correct. Talk about the nanny state!! By all accounts a very nice person, well educated, us working class people like that.

SeanMacGabhann Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 not sure all of those count as Nanny state EdOldie (and I'm for at least one of them) ... but the general point remains a good one!

SimonM Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I am not quite sure why you're all picking on Lady Harman. Surely her voting record is no different to any other government member? And as far as her education goes York Uni makes her positively plebian compared to the Oxbridge Mafia surrounding her on both sides of the house..Guilty confession....way back in the days when the local Labour Party was based in a terrace house on Grove Vale I had the opportunity to run Ms Harman over when she was trying to cross the road (no Pelican Crossing there then!). But as she was heavily pregnant at the time (I did say it was a while ago) I thought it would have been bad form to jeopardise my no claims bonus in such a caddish manner....B) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/4417-harriet-harpus/#findComment-142306 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllforNun Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 met the woman at her surgery, very nice, bleeding hardworking and has more conviction and backbone than the entire council executive put to together. I asked her if we could use the anti terrorism laws on said members of the council over their robbery of the Nunhead regeneration money and its plundered interest, she thought it was great idea and would look into it. Expect a knock some time soon. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/4417-harriet-harpus/#findComment-142321 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marmora Man Posted October 24, 2008 Author Share Posted October 24, 2008 Answers:1. No sales yet - but ready to sell to any buyer.2. Not sure myself why the cat"ty" references except that some people find Ms Harman something of a sourpuss.3. The Miaow reference takes up the catty theme but - again - I'm at a loss to explain.

Brendan Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I could probably flog some to the people I work with MM. They?re a bunch of wonks who speak about politicians in the same way normal people speak about rock stars. Can?t walk around Westminster without them pointing at and gibbering about every obscure MP they catch sight of.
