  1. The way in which she sat there, nodding inanely, as the Farmer dismantled her nonsense, was revealing in itself.

  2. At least she has learned how to nod.

  3. Presumably Lisa and her ilk can claim the cost of food back on their expenses, so it really doesn't worry them whatever harm they do to the peasantry.

  4. Past history. But the supremely ironic thing is that, had the mines not been closed, people like Nandy would have been campaigning for the closure of the mines.

  5. Or, having heard her performance over the years, of much else.

  6.  @lindsaymckeown513  Unfortunately, it seems to stem from this strange belief within the sixth form debating society that is the current government that those who are not natural Labour supporters must be punished. As the former advisor who recently commented expressed it, 'Labour should do to the farmers what Thatcher did to the miners.' Ignoring, as these people tend to do, the inconvenient fact that the Thatcher government actually closed half as many mines as the (Labour) government preceding it.

  7. ' Members of my family who are farmers ' If you say so :- Lisa Eva Nandy was born in Manchester on 9 August 1979, the daughter of The Hon. Luise (née Byers) and Indian Bengali academic Dipak Nandy. Her maternal grandfather Frank Byers was a Liberal MP who later became a life peer in the House of Lords. Lord Byers later served as the Leader of the Liberals in the House of Lords from 1967 to 1984. Nandy grew up in both Manchester and Bury. She was educated at the private, fee-paying Moor Allerton Preparatory School, before going to Parrs Wood High School, a co-educational comprehensive school in East Didsbury in Manchester, followed by Holy Cross College in Bury. She studied politics at Newcastle University, graduating in 2001, and obtained a master's degree in public policy from Birkbeck, University of London. Nandy worked as a researcher and caseworker for the Walthamstow Labour MP Neil Gerrard. After that, Nandy worked as a researcher at the homelessness charity Centrepoint from 2003 to 2005, and then as senior policy adviser at The Children's Society from 2005 until her election in 2010, where she specialised in issues facing young refugees, also acting as adviser to the Children's Commissioner for England and to the Independent Asylum Commission. She served as a Labour councillor for the Hammersmith Broadway ward on Hammersmith and Fulham London Borough Council from 2006 to 2010. As a councillor, she served as shadow cabinet member for housing. Nandy was selected as the Labour parliamentary candidate for Wigan in February 2010 from an all-women shortlist. At the 2010 general election, Nandy was elected to Parliament as MP for Wigan. Thereafter, onward and upward within the Labour Party, among a wider group who, like her, had no experience of the real world, and even less interest in it.
