He can't resist a freebie, can our Kieth: https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/keir-starmer-freebies-junkets-tottenham-hotspur-chelsea-coldplay-adele-google/

QuoteGETIR gave Starmer "four tickets with hospitality for Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal," worth £1,600. The match attended by Starmer, who is an Arsenal fan, took place at the Spurs stadium, where the executive suite advertises "private gourmet dining" and "beautifully crafted menus... crafted by world famous chefs".

Speaking to openDemocracy, a staff collective of GETIR employees in Germany, where the firm is more established than the UK, said it was "like working in a cartel", and that employees are often too afraid to speak out against the violation of their rights. GETIR didn't respond to openDemocracy's request for comment.

Just Eat handed Starmer two sets of tickets in 2021 – to the British Kebab Awards, and the 'Taste of London' event, both of which he gave to staff in his office. The firm is currently facing legal action from lawyers representing thousands of its workers over allegations that it denies them basic rights like holiday pay and minimum wage by categorising them as self-employed.

Recent reports have indicated that Starmer is now considering rolling back on previous commitments to enhance rights for workers in sectors like the online delivery market, where jobs are notoriously precarious.

But even worse than that, the cunt is a Coldplay fan. Case closed.

Getir in grave.
Actually I already hated them as I used them a few time largely because their name amused me and they were cheaper than Uber but then they suddenly stopped delivering in my postcode, the useless shits.

I like how they keep true to football's roots.

His dad was a tool maker, you know.

Thing about Starmer is he genuinely is a football fan. Has a season ticket at Arsenal, takes freebies at Arsenal away games, appears to have gone to some of the England games at the Euros at his own expense (and the final on a freebie), plays regularly but...if you ever hear him talking about football he sounds like he's reading something generated by ChatGPT. It's bizarre.

Even Sunak can sound genuine some of the time, this guy can't manage it about something he actually likes!

He's for sale and not for very much by the looks of it. Google only seemed to think he was worth a 300 quid lunch m

Did I dream this or did he do an interview recently where they asked what his biggest guilty pleasure was and he said "catching up with close friends over a pint."

Meeting friends over a pint, a guilty pleasure? The fuck is wrong with this guy. What's the guilt behind it? I guess it depends on the company he keeps.

Here's some great Keir Kontent where he visits some fat boomer in mid Beds and gets him to pledge his vote for his flat-faced briefcase clone

Its the details like the cunts phone in his shirt pocket and the mats on the floor to hide where the carpets scuffed

I presume that's a pair of placemats on the little table with the doiley at 0.57? They look more like  a couple of CDs.

I wonder if Kier's PR team asked him to put the mats down.

I think one of them is an Il Divo CD lol. Probably got it with the Mail on Sunday a decade ago.

Although it's filled with old chintzy shit note how it's a typical over-priced new-build estate probably from the last decade. He's certainly not doing poorly

Fambo Number Mive

If you are disilluiosned with the Tories why invite round someone who offers almost no change whatsoever and stiffly big them up from your living room?

People like chintzy boomer never learn.

The briefcase wankers underbite makes him look like Virgil Mastercard.

Well, Starmer IS a massive tool, so that part is true.

I've not heard about that but according to Kieth, the last lie he told was this:

QuoteSenior Labour figures accepted valuable gifts from Google in the days before abandoning a plan to tax digital giants more, openDemocracy can reveal.

Labour's shadow business secretary Jonathan Reynolds, his senior parliamentary assistant (who is his wife), and Keir Starmer's political director all attended Glastonbury festival in June as guests of YouTube, which is owned by Google. Including accommodation and 'hospitality', Reynolds estimates his Glastonbury package for two was worth £3,377 – significantly more than the cost of two regular tickets, which were £335 each.

The next day, reports emerged that Labour had ditched its proposal to hike tax on digital businesses like Google.

is anyone surprised.

they got rid of crobbins because he might have actually done some socialism, and how would they get cushy lobbyist jobs after their careers in parliament then?

Well at least he's impressing 89 year old Republican senators!
QuoteSenate Dems wake-up and take a cue fr British Labor Party. Read Shadow Chancellor of Exchequer Reeves interview in Telegraph  No tax increases and no wealth tax. She is for wealth creation  She feels u don't tax ur way out economic prob. U grow ur way out.  VERY REAGANESQUE
