What is the first serious Labour scandal gonna be?

With a change of government, one expects that there will be greater scrutiny of matters such as this:

Multi-millionaire who funded Just Stop Oil says Greens don't deserve a single MP

Labour’s biggest corporate donor Ecotricity accused of ‘greenwashing’

An update on Dale Vince:

"The estranged wife of a green energy tycoon who has given millions of pounds to the UK Labour party accused him on Wednesday of seeking to finalise their divorce in “haste” because he expects to receive an honour from Downing Street and wants to deprive her of a title ..."

Labour donor anticipates honour after backing party’s election campaign, wife claims

The media are either stupid or going easy on these jerk-offs. I'm plumping for the former but two things they never point out properly about the sleaze angle are

• the football and music industries are fighting any attempt at regulation yet they're throwing out free tickets and hospitality to these cronies
• if Lord Alli has so much money to give away to the "party of the people" what doesn't he fucking help the actual people? He could afford to build a few youth clubs, homeless shelters etc.

Well at any rate the first serious scandal of the Labour government is Starmer himself and his greed for the finer things in life, free of charge! Of course any criticism of him is water off a duck's back, did he say that, sounds like he must have misread public opinion if he did.

Pensioners having to decide to heat or eat this winter will no doubt be reassured that at least Starmer has a wardrobe of suits and expensive glasses to ponce about in!

I was listening to father's gammon radio stories earlier this week and they seemed convinced that certain newspapers (possibly those also owned by a proprietor of such a wireless broadcaster) might be running articles relating to the country's hitherto most boring man's private life this Sunday. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink - nothing concrete.

This could get interesting:

GB News – yes, GB NEWS – just exposed Wes Streeting’s Labour NHS cronyism

​

Starmer's NHS 'fixer' has made £8m+ from private health consultancy

And now:

"The NHS will rely on private hospitals to ease a growing crisis under plans being considered by the Government ..."

Private hospitals to rescue NHS

P&O owner to attend UK investment summit despite minister’s criticism

Keir Starmer rebuked transport secretary, Louise Haigh, for describing P&O Ferries as a ‘rogue operator’

www.theguardian.com

Got its own thread but think it's this....
Jessiedog (RIP) had freeporrts flagged.

To the heart of party of government not party of protest....Haigh wasn't 'off message' when she wrote The government is too cosy with P&O’s owners to strengthen workers' rights | Louise Haigh. But then they weren't in government then.

One problem is there aren't that many players in the 'do us a port' market . Belt and Road fuck off.

And now:



Private hospitals to rescue NHS

the NHS has been using Private providers ona 'power by the hour ' basis for decades for elective work , the problem is everytime you build new NHS provision, even if it's on sites which have been forcibly' cooled' due to service reconfiguration someone always spins them up into warm or hot sites again meaning more cancellations for elective work - not a lot built as true cold sites and where sites were built in the past they aren't really suited to elective work and/or passed to community . mental heaht providers in the first round of trust creation in the 90s

What ever Keithy and the Govt do in respect of trump it will be wrong.

Not really a scandal but a right gaff
BBC News - No 10 sorry for meat and alcohol at Diwali event

No 10 apologises after meat and alcohol served at Diwali event

A Tory MP accused No 10 of a "disappointing lack of knowledge" about the traditions of Hinduism.

Anything else besides Starmer being exposed as having another family and kids and visiting differently gendered prostitutes and I won't be happy.

I want to see him crash and burn in a scandal that destroys him completely even as a human being.

Apologies but my loathing runs deep.

Just imagine if it became public knowledge about him being a genocidal monster... oh wait...
