Starmer VIII: Labour will set you free

QuoteIn a gritty promotional video for his 2020 Labour leadership bid, Keir Starmer called himself a "proud trade unionist" who had worked with unions "all my life"

This guy eh.


Fambo Number Mive

I'm not sure if it is intentional as part of some plan to keep Labour out of power but Starmer's stance on the rail strikes has pleased nobody apart from the Tory Party.

phantom_power

They are going to blame Labour anyway so he needs to either have a coherent and convincing defence of the strikes or be clear about being against them. Obviously the former is preferable for the leader of the fucking Labour party but this fence-sitting appeal to both sides ends up pleasing no-one. Except maybe Blue Tick centrist melts, and even some of them are having second thoughts

Sebastian Cobb

I assume some of you might be aware of Ally Fogg, who as well as speaking about politics a fair bit also has something to do with the Men and Boys charity and Gendemic, who aim to help male survivors of domestic/sexual abuse without distracting from abuse suffered by women like tedious MRA types do.

He's previously been quite scathing about the law that will classify male survivors of abuse as 'victims of crimes against women and girls'.

Well guess who he's discovered is one of the architects of that: https://twitter.com/AllyFogg/status/1539592476083851264

Another great little montage of Mick Lynch scything through the running dogs of capitalism.

Wasn't but funnily enough came here to post this

QuoteI see Centrist Twitter has come around to "Hey, that Mick Lynch guy is really good at that authenticity stuff. Our guys should really learn to fake some of that..."

Starmer was called a "tosser" in Wakefield today.

Straight out of the desolation thread.

Why isn't this happening every day?

Corbyn done a interview for Declassified UK, talking quite frankly about, among other things, Starmer and anti-Semitism -

Thanks for linking that.  Really worth reading and ends on a note of hope. 

And we should have hope, a guy I know in my village stopped me at the spring the other day and said things are changing, all over the world, keep the faith.  Courage and solidarity.

holyzombiejesus

Those first couple of sentences are heartbreaking.

Buelligan

Yes.  But inspiring too.  Imagine, believe in, what we can achieve, what change can come.  Work for it harder.

Is this good?

Starmer's got his first speech in front of No. 10 sorted out too. He'll do a long wet fart, follow through, then faint. All to desolate silence

Here's the full GMB interview with Mick Lynch:

Madeley #AccidentalPartridge'ing himself inside out, there. Lynch having none of it.

Compare with the treatment of Shapps/Green/Stockheath/Fox:

Lynch really is the best bald. Makes me vicariously proud.

If Corbyn was in charge he would be absolutely brutalised for not having a clear lead in the current situation. Even if you take the 20 pts ahead thing as an exaggeration.

idunnosomename

Lynch is a proud bald. The complete opposite of a disgusting coward bald like Prince Wills

shoulders

Lynch's Thunderbirds profile picture is really quite amusing too in a self-deprecating way. The exact sort of humour a public school bully like Moron wouldn't understand.

I'd say Lynch is one of the finest bald men operating today.

Sebastian Cobb

He's like Tony Soprano in that the man and the power obscure his baldness.

Buelligan

His baldness isn't even a fucking issue.  It's not in play.  Starmer has more bald on his little finger.

Blumf

Starmer is bald on the inside, he is spiritually bald. His spirit animal is a cue ball.

Buelligan

The beige in the centre pocket.  Using a lot of right spin.

Blumf

Tries to sink a red, ends up on the cushion kissing the blue.

Johnny Yesno

On the other head, Shapps/Green/Stockheath/Fox is trying his best to hide it with whatever that fuzzy stuff is. Fundamentally dishonest, see?

king_tubby

Better figures for Labour from Savanta.
