What is that "mate" of mine Sadiq Khan trying to achieve ?

 

You lost you demented little cretin, get over it and concentrate on your job you terrorist sympathiser.

I think folk are forgetting that it isn't the Tories in charge. However, having said that I do think he's on borrowed time.

They wouldn't hesitate to make a move if they thought the timing was right

Of course, just the Tories have in the past done it when timing was out the window, zero fucks given.

I don’t think that they’ll pot him tonight. Purely because the PLP have looked down the hole and realised that they don’t currently have a replacement that’s any better. 
Just let that sink in. 🙄

Aye we could end up with the Labour version of Liz Truss!

I dunno

The Tories set the lowest bar in political history when they started binning PM’s.

Who’d have thought shiny Dave was the best they could offer?

If Labour start mentioning Abbott as a potential leader, then I’ll admit they’re getting somewhere close to the levels the tories sank to.

I’ve just seen a Sky News interview - Beth Rigby and Wes Streeting. Wes is attempting to distance himself from his mentor, Mandy. Rigby reads out a series of emails between the pair. Absolutely toe curling. 
Fucking hell.

They're WhatsApp messages he's chosen to release himself, aren't they?

18 months ago, Starmer & Reeves looked as though they would be competent but have turned out to be hopeless.

Next level down would be Streeting who is trying ( too late ) to distance himself from Mandelson & Burnham whose obvious ambition ( which exceeds his ability ) has already pissed people off. ......& then you start scraping the barrel with the likes of Lammy & Rayner.

It's the dreadful alternatives that will probably save Starmer for now but a pasting in the bi election or in the locals will probably finish him off.

They will get hammered in local elections, especially as last time round the Tories were at a real low point which benefitted Libs and Labour add in Reform and there is only bad news to come for KS.

They are going to get mullered at the locals for certain.

We have either a hung parliament or Reform next time round for sure.

Apologies. Yes, WhatsApp messages. See if you find a clip of the interview. Truly appalling. Starmer 2.0.

I think it’ll be a Brexit rerun election…. Labour/lib will join to thwart Farage.

Brexit has been a disaster economically.

Yet the turd is still here grifting away, we will all benefit I am sure once he gets in power.

Reform are now asking for people to apply to be candidates for the election.

It'll cost you £250 to apply and then told no thanks. But what a splendid future it promises to be.

The grifting cunts.

I'm still not sure quite what people are expecting nowadays. 

As a country, we've positioned ourselves so that it's going to be extremely difficult for any party that comes in to rapidly transform anything. 

What I can be sure of is that if we keep potting PMs every 2 years then we're going nowhere fast. 

I think Starmer has done alright under really difficult circumstances (ie inherited a mess, after COVID 19 and DT bulldozing all existing convenentions.

The Mandleson thing was an obvious error of judgement. I'm really scratching my head for anything else really. 

I've never understood the vitriol towards him. I just hardly really notice he's there. I find it hard to feel any real love for the guy - but equally I find the hate for him a real head scratcher. 

But maybe that's the problem. In this day and age when you have people treating this all like a game - then unless you've got your own rabid mob behind you - it's hard to stay anywhere very long. Maybe he's just a bit too vanilla for modern politics?

People should apply, get voted in and then cross the floor

WTF are you on about?

Outperforming the EU mainstay - Germany.

Of course everyone will benefit when he 'gets in power'. Brexit benefits properly delivered in place of sinister cunts running interference.

Pretty simple.

Clear and decisive competent leadership preferably with close to zero U turns.

This shower of shite are rewriting the dictionary definition of 'shambolic'. It should be modified in all dictionaries to read "Starmers Labour".

It started with the political incompetence of the winter fuel allowance and has snowballed from there.

Wonder which lobby group has inspired his rant against working from home? Think he may have misread the room as not the usual extreme public division on this as his usual targets 

You know who I blame for the discord in modern politics? The White Stripes.

Ever since Jack White thrust Seven Nation Army onto the world, from Oooh Jeremy Corbyn to Kier Starmer's a wanker this country has been nothing but a shambles.

Aye, it’s always a tell on yourself subject that. The grifting div.

It was one of the oddest Covid era culture wars they tried to get going. And no fucker cared

Its why I'll never buy anything from Pret etc - those twats showed their true colours just wanting everyone back so they could charge silly money for soup because people were time poor rather than accepting people want and deserve more flexibility if they can do their job from home (who most of their punters are)

 

Most folk I know who work from home spend all day tossing it off.
