Keir Starmer's time is up

[teqniq]

What an absolute shitshow the Labour party has become under Starmer, a short thread:

 

[steveseagull]

Astounding isn't it. The left elect a Jewish woman to the NEC and within weeks Starmer has hounded her out of the party in a spite filled rage. And along with the many other Jews he has hounded out, the media stay quiet.

This authoritarian fucker is an absolute danger.

 

[steveseagull]

he has quite a list of people he hates.

Jewish socialists
Trade unionists
workers
this will end well...

His henchman Wes Streeting has been giving a talk to a far right think tank today. Said think tank like to write reports linking mad conspiracy theory hoaxes to Muslims.

I've just been looking at that thread. Was reluctant to click on play in case I got really depressed/angry.

It's "I AM A MAN OF THE PEOPLE!"
No, you're not, you beige, tory-lite cunt. Now, fuck off.

Stupid fucking evil lumps of human shit. How the fuck do they expect kids to be able to concentrate when they're hungry?

As has been said, it's a parody... but it sails very close to the sort of shite, Starmer, Reeves, Streeting or some other shadow cabinet dalek comes out with.

Yes, it was all too believable and I responded too quickly.

Spot on; it was the believability that made it such good satire.

Ken Loach gives a forthright opinion on the right wing propaganda machine and how it related to Corbyn's fall, the shame being that the vast majority of Voters in this country wont read it or indeed read anything else that isnt projected through a lens of capitalism loves you and socialism is evil

‘Absolutely shameless’: Ken Loach says BBC helped ‘destroy’ Jeremy Corbyn

Mind you he doesn't think it really matters whether Trump gets in or not next time in the US, so we're unlikely to agree on much.

I've got no love for the likes of Trump and he can die or rot in jail for the rest of his life for all I care. What matters to me is getting rid of this extremely shit system, no matter who is in charge of managing it.

 

[Pickman's model]

even by shammer's standards this is particularly stupid Labour targets new swing voter ‘middle-aged mortgage man’

So basically they’re targeting Clarkson wannabes

 

[magneze]

Who the fuck wants to be Clarkson?

Finally, someone to speak up for property-owning baby boomers.

middle aged now is vastly more gen-xers than baby boomers.
only the youngest boomers from the tail end couple of years would still be in the crossover.

times inevitable march goes on and on

Clear similarities; both Norman Cook and Keith took other people's work and became successful after trashing it

Here he is whooping with joy as England score against Wales. The useless cunt

That bloke on the far left looks like he's lost the will to live and is screaming into the pits of hell for Lucifer to take him away from that place to somehere better.

 

[Karl Masks]

I bet they had to redo that photo just to make sure Keith's cheer is the bestest

LABOUR CAN’T ‘TURN ON THE TAPS FROM DAY ONE’ ON SPENDING, SAYS
NEW TUC LEADER

[image]
Labour will not be able “turn the taps on from day one” on public
spending if it wins the next election, the new leader of the TUC has
acknowledged, suggesting the party’s attempts to manage expectations
are working.

The incoming general secretary, Paul Nowak, said a Labour government
would not be able to fix the Conservatives’ “neglect” straight
after coming to power but suggested it could still “set a very clear
direction of travel” for public services.

It follows Keir Starmer’s warning in his conference speech that
although he would “love to stand here and say Labour will fix
everything” that was wrong with the country, so much damage had been
done to the economy that a recovery would take time, in what was
interpreted as a message to the unions not to expect immediate radical
change should the party win power.

In an interview with the Guardian, Nowak acknowledged: “Who knows
what economic mess Labour is going to inherit. It’s not going to be
able to turn the taps on from day one. It’s not going to be able to
fix our public services.

“What you can’t fix is 12 or 13 years of neglect on day one but
you can set a very clear direction of travel. No one believes that you
can fix our NHS, fix our schools, fix our civil service on day one of
a Labour government because you’re undoing years of neglect … But
you can certainly begin to do things that would give confidence.”

Nowak was cautiously supportive of Labour’s position “in the
round” on industrial action after some unions criticised Starmer
over his reluctance to overtly back striking workers, instead focusing
on laying the blame on the Tories for walkouts.

“I obviously want any political party, when workers take that very
difficult decision to take industrial action, to understand why
they’re doing that and support them. But I recognise that Keir’s
job is different to my job,” he said.

He highlighted the party’s commitment to measures including
repealing anti-strike legislation and bringing in a “new deal” for
workers in the first 100 days of a Labour government, but he added:
“Does that mean we’re going to agree on every issue? Absolutely
not.”

Sharon Graham, the general secretary of Unite, has been particularly
outspoken in her criticism of Starmer’s Labour. Nowak, however,
said: “Where me and Sharon would be absolutely aligned is that sense
that we need political change in this country and that Labour is our
best chance of that political change.

“The idea that we have another term of Conservative government,
after what it’s done to our public services and what it’s done to
the jobs of our members, that’s not a vision that any of us would
sign up to.”

He employers recognised that the “political wind is changing” and
that it could, therefore, be more difficult politically for Rishi
Sunak to get his anti-strike legislation through parliament.

“When we’re in the midst of this cost of living crisis, with the
pressures on the UK economy, to spend precious parliamentary time
taking another kick at unions, rather than trying to resolve
underlying issues, just seems absolutely ludicrous,” he said.

“The government will pay a political price for it because I think
there will be a lot of ordinary people looking at it saying, hang on,
this just doesn’t seem right.”
