Labour MP Stella Creasy, who represents Walthamstow, posts a video showing a parakeet in London and invites local viewers to share information. In the clip, she asks, “Have you lost a parrot in Walthamstow? Please share!”, and adds that the bird was “too big to be a parakeet.” The post draws attention and criticism online, with people mocking the MP for appearing to mistake one of London’s known parakeet species for an escaped pet. The video and accompanying remarks circulate on social media, prompting debate about whether her description was accurate and whether she misunderstood the parakeets that are commonly seen in parts of the city. Across the coverage provided, the central point is the same: Creasy shares a parakeet-related video with wording that suggests the bird may be lost, and that comment triggers ridicule from some users.
