Andrew Feinstein is standing against Starmer - good luck to him although 27,000+ majority (although near 20% of electorate identify as muslim) will be interesting to see whether he makes a dent

Remember, under Starmer, interviewing Ken Loach at a film festival is grounds for deselection, but staying at the townhouse of a convicted pedophile is... not worthy of comment at all.

Keir Starmer’s plan for a decade in power: ‘I find it easy to be ruthless’​

Telegraph interview with our next PM. They seem to be worse the the Grauniad for typos now. How you mistype ‘shit’ as ‘ruthless’ I don’t know.

He has my vote. Seems a thoroughly decent sort as well. Won't lose his deposit, but sadly won't come anywhere close to winning.

Someone with fairly deep pockets has had this put up in London, somewhere in Lambeth apparently:

Presumably at the behest of Morgan McSweeney, media personality and aspiring Foreign Secretary, The Right Honourable David Lammy PC FRSA MP, continues his campaign to become a national embarrassment in his quest to become Sir Keir Starmer KCB KC MP's best (and only?) 'Black' friend:

At first glance I thought here's a good left-wing Labour proposal I can get behind

Minister says Tories will pay for pensions policy by clamping down on tax avoidance

Mel Stride says pensioners will pay more income tax under Labour as critics say plan is merely reversal of previous Tory policy

www.theguardian.com

ah no the tories being more left wing than starmer surely not

funny that they've had 14 years to do something about it though.

Promises? Before an election ? Seems legit

He’s got Alexi Sayle’s vote, who’s clearly no fan of KS - in the current Camden New Journal

Even 24 hours later, this is still shocking to watch:

Just as a bit of a contrast:

Labour parachute 'extremist' Israel lobbyist Luke Akehurst into safe seat

LABOUR have come under fire after parachuting a member of its national executive who has claimed the United Nations is antisemitic into a safe seat…

www.thenational.scot

In 2022, asked directly if he believed the United Nations was antisemitic because its security council had said that “Israel’s establishment of settlements in Palestinian territory occupied since 1967, including East Jerusalem, had no legal validity”, Akehurst responded: “Yes.”

Elsewhere, in posts on social media which are still live, Akehurst has claimed that video footage appearing to show child victims of an attack on Al Shifa hospital in Gaza was “staged”.

Data shared by Byline Times journalist Adam Bienkov showed that Akehurst had deleted more than 2000 tweets in the week before his candidacy was announced.

Somebody must surely have copied the tweets?

Whatever he did, he's probably going to regret it.
