Keir Starmer's time is up

As I had previously thought, other Labour shadow cabinet members didn't get penalised for going off-message. Rachel Reeves didn't.

Funny, that. :mad:


Earlier this week, Ms Reeves gave an interview in which she said the party no longer backed renationalising the railways. Labour later clarified that renationalisation remained its policy.

Tbf, in the 80s, the idea of AI seemed glorious. By now, I think the writers will be taking into account our experience of automated tills.
 
this is where my 'working on local elections' knowledge comes in...

don't just draw a small spunking cock next to one candidate or in the box where you would put your X for that candidate

the ballot will be taken out of the pile for referral to a higher-up - sometimes these are interpreted as being a vote for that candidate - I have seen this happen, much to the other candidate's chagrin

PLEASE...
either draw a massive cock across the whole ballot

OR

put a cock in every box so that it is patently unclear who you are voting for - eyethankew
Wholly concur with this, but will offer this small, additional observation. If there is one candidate that you don't mind the chance of getting your vote (eg. Binface) then you can put the spunking cock in all but their box and then smugly put the paper in the ballot box safe in the knowledge that you have caused lengthy mayhem when the ERO brings the agents together to argue the toss about the spoilts. Some fucker will claim that the lack of spunking cock counts as a valid vote :D
 
I'm almost in awe of how politically inept Starmer has been. Johnson has been given the boot by his own party, the Tories' succession process has been a toxic clusterfuck, the economy is tanking, Dover is a Brexity car park, and millions upon millions of people are starting to realise that they are not as comfortable with the status quo as they thought (fuel, food and energy bills); all Starmer had to do was not give anyone an excuse to make the prevailing narrative about "divided Labour".

He chooses now to give a graphic demonstration of his authoritarian nature and the rightward lurch of the Labour party, completely committing to keeping the boot firmly on the neck of the working class. And in doing so he's given the right wing press every reason to jump all over him and make every day about how shit Labour are, focus off the Tories. It's almost genius, it takes a special talent to be this bad.

proving the auld adage that the difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits
 
Under the present management.
Correct. There should (will?) be a large number of Labour MPs thinking about the future of the party under this total arsehole, wondering if a large scale rebellion a la Johnson would get rid of him, but timing is everything - for crying out loud just let the Tories commit seppuku in the public glare.
