"We have to get rid of these so we need the torture guy back" isn't really selling it to me. But then I'm not interested in the red team winning just for the sake of it tbh

his politics aside (which i gather are shit) he's also just a bit...miserable

heres one of him smiling

i dont mind that if its matched with a serious attitude to get some real shit done, but I gather thats not really him either
seems like replacing one mopey middle manager facing a midlife crisis with another

Burnham = hair of a Lego man

Fucking spellcheck

I think you mean Confucius spellcheck

The Times is up Keir Starmer, or something... do we have a "why the Times is going down the pan" or "The Times' time is up" thread?

A monster battle, Keir Kong versus Corbzilla

It is rumoured that the Labour Party has invited a television crew into its innermost circle to film a fly-on-the-wall documentary about Keir Starmer, in the ho

Burnham at least has some basic political skills and comes across well on camera. He has the ability to talk to voters like he's an actual human being not some alien SW1 lifeform. I don't trust him for a second but he'd at least put a bit of fight back in the party. And as for why he was so shit in the past - he's clearly been on a political learning curve since 2015. He is a lot more impressive now as a politician. That isn't to say I think he's moved leftwards particularly, he's clearly just an opportunist, but I've seen him compared to Biden in terms of a centrist politican that could work with the left rather than prioritising its utter destruction. But I think it's more likely he will join David Miliband in the club of almost-leaders and miss the boat.

Those figures are clearly all Corbyn's fault for not turning his vaccination into a photo opportunity in the same way Johnson and Starmer did.

Is there no end to the man's evil...

Burnham is gormless.

Anger as Starmer joins calls to restrict access to Primrose Hill

Campaigners say Labour leader should not follow ‘Tory agenda’ over night curfews at north London park

Going for the all essential gated community vote I see.

Wanker.

Whoever is advising him is either trolling him or us. I can't decide.

This is such a pathetic decision to attach your name to and it can only make you look bad, even if only among a tiny community. I can't see this being something that will galvanise support. Like visiting Theresa's bigot church.

Still at least he's more electable

its unthinking authoritarianism, this is who he is. The rabble there to be constrained, the wealthy homeowners to be placated. Thats his instincts.

OMG that's a description of me in my twenties! I ticked every box there, back in the day. Wasn't in the Labour Party though.

I like 'lefty' being on the list. Wouldn't want them in labour party

That list makes Labour sound way cooler than it actually is

That list is classic Briefcase Labour.

Even for ten years ago those terms seem rather outdated. Dungarees, pot, even CND. Almost looks as if it were c&p’d straight from the eighties

More like what 90's corporate Labour types thought members were like in the 80's?

tbf the Labour right are still petrified of Militant from what I can tell of the last five years.

apparently the book is discussing the Labour Party of the 1980s, not the 2010s Labour Party

it was only 14 times so morgan could equal auld paxo's record.

the truth is that sir keir starmer has never taken drugs and he fears if this became widely known his reputation, lacklustre tho' it is, would take a hit from which it might never recover.

Talking of drugs, has anyone else ever had a hit from which they never recovered?
