Keir Starmer's time is up

[brogdale]

Looks like young too many Ls has been on the pop

 

[steeplejack]

Labour sinking rapidly with the loss of all hands in Hartlepool

 

[Pickman's model]

Maybe starmer won't last as long as Corbyn did as leader

 

[Humberto]

Maybe starmer won't last as long as Corbyn did as leader

Or as long as you predicted to much attention seeking fanfare: Boris Johnson definately wouldn't last 100 days?

 

[Humberto]

You can take that to the bank

 

[Humberto]

Definately

I never said that

 

[Humberto]

What was it then I forget the exact amount of massively wrong predictions?

 

[Humberto]

You 'syphalitic slug'

 

[Humberto]

You 'slug scrotum'.

 

[tony.c]

Definately

You are 'H'?!

 

[JTG]

Anyone watching?
Wtf is millibandism?

It means go after the soft left as well as the left.

Might be worth remembering that it was the membership who pushed for a second referendum at conference and it was the membership who gave Starmer the job , by some distance. Admittedly Starmer lied in his campaign for leader, but his credentials were there to see.

It would be interesting to know what the membership think at this point

No denying that the membership was pro second referendum but who ran the second referendum campaign?

I dont know what you want the answer to this to be
Starmer?
Lots of people ran the campaign though, it had many hydra like heads

I think we're all seeing that aren't we?

 

[tommers]

Who could have predicted that deliberately fucking off a large portion of your voting base could have such dire consequences?

Sorry, seeing what?

What the membership thinks of Starmer.

What the membership thinks of Starmer.

Anti-Starmer Corbynites do not equal the membership. My impression is Corbynites were about half the membership at peak. Tens of thousands are no longer members. Membership polling about Starmer was 50% positive not that long ago. Curious what it is now.
Dont quote me on any of those figures

(That’s Corbyn’s deputy head of communications and strategy before the 2017 general election, for context).

Problem is Starmer won't resign because the real issue, IMO, is who he's listening to. The first thing his advisers and backers will tell him to do is not listen to the left. Don't listen to Novara/Owne Jones and for god's sake do not let Jeremy Corbyn back into the party. So they will calcify into further polarisation.

Anyway I'm off to cook an omelette.

Please don’t tell Sir Keith about your omelette. He’ll turn it into a shit metaphor.

My recollection was that initially there was no appetite within labour for a second referendum then suddenly there was a well funded campaign.

Go on....

 

[Cid]

Surely you would still vote for Sir Keir over Boris? I would choke a little on my own vomit while doing so, mind.

I think it’s a bit of an easier decision in an election like this… GE I might have nose-held, though in all honesty I probably wouldn’t have. Harder choice if my area wasn’t safe Labour, with a middle of the road mp. Thing is Starmer has been fucking awful on every level… that needed to have consequences for him. The wrong messages will be drawn, but fuck it. And fuck him.

Forgot about the whole voluntary donation to Labour through your union subscription thing. Contacted my union rep and told them to untick.

Remind me what happened to Labour's membership numbers when Corbyn was leader?

I don't think your union rep can do that for you, for obvious reasons. In my union you have to do that yourself.

maybe they don't trust jv to untick the right box
