Tomb


Diane Abbott says Jeremy Corbyn's idea of a hot date was a trip to see Karl Marx's tomb
 
Diane Abbott has revealed Jeremy Corbyn's idea of taking her on a hot date was a trip to see Karl Marx's tomb - as she tells all about their love affair...

But in her new autobiography the MP has derided the future Leader of the Opposition for his complete dearth of romance - which seems to have sent her spiraling into complete boredom.

The Mother of the House describes the young leftie as '99 per cent absorbed in party politics', with the only interesting thing she remembers the dull youth doing being growing vegetables in his garden.


I'm not sure what to say about that, so I'll finish there and carry on making the evening meal.

It's fish.

"the only interesting thing she remembers the dull youth doing being growing vegetables in his garden."

So in a way, he did make the earth move for her.

Sam - but she didn't notice and a glorious romance withered and died.

I wonder what he grew? Red crops e.g. radishes, lollo rosso?

A K Haart said...

dearieme - ha ha , exclusively red crops I imagine. I expect it has been a common experience for him to find everything he cultivates has bolted.

A new euphamism? "Tombstoning". Akin to "Ugandan Discussions"?

Doonhamer - it could become one, although there may be suggestion of Marxist Wilt too.
