I'm not under the illusion that my vote will make any difference either way tbh. It's just a minuscule mark of approval really. As far as that does matter, I'm not using it to approve of KeirStarmer.
Article is penned by John McTernan and appears to be offering a olive branch to the left still within the party hahaha:
KeirStarmer needs a Clause IV moment with a twist
lol they thought it was gonna be a week! think they just didn't like the queen/idea of the monarchy. this class in particular is very 'fuck the tories' tho not sure many know who keirstarmer is 😂
Conversely, all I'm hearing from long-term lefty women of a similar-ish age to me, 40-50s, is they are sick of women being thrown under a bus.
Notwithstanding Starmer's recent comment that a woman is an adult female and his apparent backtracking/U-turn on gender self-ID...
"The Labour leader...

It's not u-turns, he's recklessly donutting in the car park of the body public.
this is a lot of people who are clearly up for being in a political party

"
Labour Membership is now down 138,000 since Sir KeirStarmer took over as Labour leader."
Claiming its a factor (though really not in this case) would be okay but you said it was the only reason. Plenty of other things make housing unaffordable such as the cost of land, cost of construction & what people are being paid. There’s no utopia where if we just allowed building everywhere...
Oh yes, no incomers. I forgot your rule.
And KeirStarmer. And I fogot to mention four of the seven members of Lambeth Council's planning committee who voted in favour of the Tower. And the Mayor of London suppoted it, until he didn't. You're so tribal you think that if Michael Gove supports...
It's a critical point. People who oppose local development genuinely believe they're doing good. They can't see the harm they cause.
KeirStarmer gets it, and Michael Gove gets it, and they both make big speeches on the need for more development, but developments are all to often thwarted by...

The video he made ( post above) was the second time he had made this promise.
He is such an unpleasant piece of work.
...tory voters not bothering this time round, but they are more likely to turn out at a general election to stop 'that radical woke lefty keirstarmer' (or whatever the daily fail decides to call him)
the tories did worse in the 1993 shire council elections than they did in the 1997 shire...
I expect to see the Tories get a massive humping, followed by whatever is left of the party electing one of the hard right culture war loons. So we get a decade or so of Keir fucking Starmer.
It's fucking silly - there's loads of money around. Profiteering from covid, energy, water, railways, landlords, millionaires, billionaires ... Windfall taxes would pay for the first round of payrises/investment in infrastructure that we need.
