Labour MP tweets during two-minute silence after criticising Jeremy Corbyn’s bowing

Stay classy, Simon! [Image: PA.]

And look who it was: Corbyn arch-critic Simon Danczuk.

A Labour MP who criticised Jeremy Corbyn for “not paying respects properly” during a Remembrance Sunday wreath-laying ceremony has tweeted during the two-minute silence on Armistice Day.

Simon Danczuk, a persistent critic of the Labour leader, tweeted at exactly 11am on 11 November about going for a run in the hills around his constituency of Rochdale.

The Labour MP said he had meant to send the tweet earlier, however.

Rob Shuttleworth, of Sheffield, said: “If Jeremy had tweeted during the two minute silence you would have written an outraged article in the Mail.” Another, Stuart Gregory told the MP to “stay classy”.

Surely to Christ he would be better joining the CONservatives.. Because as each day passes his behaviour is getting more & more extreme.. And his sounding more like a CONservative than a Labour MP!!! I use to have a lot of time for this bloke, with his pursuite of the Lib-Dem MP Cyril Smith.. Anything he may have gained. He has lost completely since Jeremy Corbyn won the Labour Leadership Campaign & a clear majority of 59.95% or over 500,000 labour supporters!! Of which I am one!!
