Keir Starmer's time is up

It's only Afghans, Yemenis, besides we've got memes now. And cats.

'Unshakeable support' = grotesque partisan profiteering for the masters of war that poison the planet and stamp on it's weakest.

You said that already.

 

[Humberto]

You said that already.

So?

 

[Dom Traynor]

So?

I'm just curious as to why you repeated it?

 

[Humberto]

Because it needs discussing in light of Starmer's clearly myopic and frankly destructive comments. Or not, others took issue.

 

[Humberto]

I mean this would go without saying even 5-6 years ago (what would? That it would need discussing)

 

[Dom Traynor]

It was being discussed wasnt it? No need to quote yourself.

 

[Humberto]

I reiterated

 

[Humberto]

And only by me in the face of, what?

 

[Humberto]

OOHHHH

 

[two sheds]

everyone agreeing with you?

 

[Humberto]

Sorry too stupid. Can't make response

 

[Dom Traynor]

U OK hun?

Well here's a clincher: skwakwbox who I honestly don't usually look at but are going to be the impartial source on this

Johnson says Starmer ‘nothing to do’ with Savile decision – but is he right?

Starmer: no denial of involvement in Savile decision – nor naming anyone else who was – though FOI shows he was at least aware After pressure from his own MPs rallying to Keir Starmer&#…

Note this: Starmer didn't respond to Skwawkbox despite a deadline of 5pm that day.

I think we all know the reason for this

On the subject of Skwawkbox they seem to have confused the film set of The Crown with reality:

Another union may disaffiliate:

ASLEF union threatens to cut ties with Labour as Starmer's row with Left grows

The move by ASLEF to sever its bond with Labour comes as Keir Starmer clashes with Unite's Sharon Graham over funding

Yeah I am aware that it used to have a largely working class membership in the past, but I would still not count it as ever being pro-working class. I mean this is a party that once forced working class people into labour camps for starters, and sent troops against striking workers etc. But as you say - it's always been a capitalist party.

The Labour Party was fucked by the middle classes before it even started. I blame the Fabien Society.

I'd actually think even less of Starmer if his stated position was to go crawling back to the EU like some snivelling cur.

Oh good - some rare indication of what Starmer's Labour actually thinks about something. Just a shame it's such inept, futile bullshit.

Labour will look at ‘naming and shaming’ scheme for people convicted of buying drugs

Yeah stealing policies from Richard Nixon is clearly the way to a shiny new future

 

[Cerv]

is this entirely just an attempt to be able to apply it to Boris Johnson once he's out?

 

[Serge Forward]

There are just no depths to which Labour will not sink. What's next? Bring back the birch?

Congratulations to drugs for winning the war on drugs

Stupid and ineffectual. Just like Starmer's Labour Party, so entirely in character.

Honestly don't get how this is supposed to work. When I move into an area am I supposed to go around saying, "Hello, I'm your new neighbour and I'm legally obligated to inform you that I got done for buying an eighth of skunk"?

I can see two main reactions:

"Erm, OK, whatever?", or

"Do you still have your dealer's number?"

 

[pesh]

I'd be pretty ashamed if all the people that know me were told I couldn't even buy drugs successfully.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

another one to try and make the daily fail readers think that maybe he's more nice and respectable than most labour leaders (before they go and vote tory anyway)

 

[ska invita]

Starmers whole pitch is going to be based on CRIME and how he's basically a cop and theyre going to turbo it up and make out the Tories are rule-breakers.

 

[PR1Berske]

That's reminding me of Blair's "march them up to a cash machine" policy

 

[two sheds]

Well if it's popular with focus groups who are we to argue?

 

[SpookyFrank]

Not even actual crime though. Not even dealing drugs ffs.
