What Labour Party Members say about Jess Phillips
A petition of over 1000 Labour members asking for her to resign
"We wish JESS PHILLIPS to resign as MP of Yardley, as she does not represent our constituents views and our wishes. She has been verbally abusive to minority representatives, and denigrated Birmingham as a city of pernicious sexual abuse. Her actions have not be conducive to the reputation of Birmingham and the constituents of Yardley. As the democratically elected leader of Labour Party, she should have supported Corbyn, not resigned. Keep Corbyn. PHILLIPS Resign.

"Which ironically, is just one of the reasons why I harbour nothing but contempt for Phillips. I am not a fan of Diane Abbott, but the way in which Phillips has built her 'career' in the media on the back of having a fight with her and bragging about it to The Guardian all who would care to listen in order to feather her own nest with the extra-parliamentary activity that strinity describes, lapping up praise on social media from rum characters that dislike Abbott for reasons that have little to do with political differences (not to mention getting involved in petty squabbles with student activists), makes her to me a very disreputable character."
