Keir Starmer's time is up

Well, this puts a wee bit of pressure on Durham Constabulary. Erm... the power to remove this mighty colossus of the labour movement. :thumbs:

Anyway, this was just about the only thing he could do and claws back a bit of the damage over the charge of hypocrisy. His bigger problem is that he's a useless tosser who thinks banging on about Corbyn is his best route to power. Getting ahead of the hypocrisy curve on party/pizzagate isn't going to affect that being a shit strategy.
 
Christ, Starmer is fucking shit.

For this super important press conference, which is clearly going to be all over the news, he spent more time staring at his notes than looking at the camera, looked and sounded completely insincere and is so boring I had trouble staying focused on what he was saying.

This is his big moment doing something daring and he looked like an 8 year old reading the introduction to a school play. Is that the best he can do? Did he not practice beforehand? Did no-one tell him?

So far I've figured this story is a load of bollocks pushed by the Tories through their mouthpiece at the Daily Mail to take the pressure off Johnson, but having watched the dismal Starmer's dismal performance I find myself hoping for him to get slapped with a FPN just so I need never have to look at his useless fucking face again.

Come on Durham Constabulary do yer worst.
 
The other thing about this is that Labour are now stuck in the same time loop as the Tories over lockdown breaches... will you resign... let's wait to see what plod says... will you resign... rinse and repeat.
 
Isn't this to ratchet up pressure on Durham police - now it's a resigning matter it's deeply political to issue the fine (especially given they let Cummings get away with it) and the police don't like that kind of political attention. So they are now considerably less likely to fine Sir Keith than they were this morning. A gamble but probably one which will work.
 
Tell you what, I bet Andy Burham is casting glances in the direction of Wakefield. Or is he too late? :hmm:

I think it was always a resigning matter - his previous rhetoric on Johnson's FPNs made it impossible to be anything else.

Maybe cos he knows he's very unlikely to get fined - so a risk free strategy and he gets the rule breaking stick back to hit Johnson with. But - Being Starmer - he will most likely twat himself in the face with it. Again.
Also - what a bunch of fuckwits - you'd think they'd have been very careful not to have done anything that might have looked like rule breaking - even if it technically wasn't. Especially as they must have known about the downing street parties - even if it was only strong rumours.
