Actually one of his better performances.
Struck a good and right cord.

Went on a bit too long maybe.
Still wish he had a key to wind him up a little.

To some however, he'd be damned for saying anything but also damned had he said nothing.

That is usually right but if what's happening now is not stability, then change has to take place to bring about more or real stability.

Even recently, Liz Truss as PM created chaos.
To get even just some stability back in place change had to come about with a change of leader and policy.

Things are becoming dire for more and more arista.

Unfortunately this governnents policies are not doing anything to address the mess things really are now.
Just getting worse too.

There's no real compassion I'm afraid from the Con government.
I'm stunned they even want to have made known instances like the one you've posted.
They're only giving lip service to the serious issues.
Then again look at the nonsense Sunak throws out at PMQs to really serious matters.

Labour isn't on the fully right road they should be to address completely the chaos that's building.
At least there'd be more compassionate in the policies which coupled with action will hopefully help more.

For more and more, this cost of living crisis is becoming a living nightmare.
With now far less overall government assistance to those on low incomes, even too to those on what was thought to be better incomes.

What nonsense from the Mail as usual.

IF, Labour had not an overall majority, so then formed a coalition with the LibDems who had PR as one of their policies.
The public had then been consulted.
It is Labour who should also have as a policy PR in their manifesto.
It was overwhelmingly passed at the last Labour conference.
Starmer should include it himself.

However if part of the agreement for a Labour/LibDem pairing then so be it.
The polls all indicate no love for the current first past the post discredited system.

Really the LibDems should have insisted in 2010 for PR.
No daft referendums on only AV.
They didn't get it then because they dropped their holy grail of PR policy.

This time with Labour, Labour is now a Party whose members, supporters and even the Unions want PR now.
It's something I and other members of Labour are and have been battling for now for some time.
The Party now backs it.

The leadership and Cabinet need to get on board now too.

All PR will ensure is NO Party will likely ever again get absolute power for not getting over 50% of the votes cast .
The one and ONLY party in the UK which is against PR is the Con one.
Because they believe in having absolute power only for them.
No concensus in politics.
Having absolute power to abuse it for their own ends not for the overall 4 Nations UK"s good.

I'd welcome bigtime working with the LibDems to achieve PR.
Absolutely all the way now.

I thought it wouldn't be long before the vile Mail pounced.
It's really getting worried that their precious Cons are going to lose.

They turn a blind eye to all the abuses of power by this shocking governnent.
Yet attack any even idea being only discussed by others.
If people are in this Country permanently and paying taxes which contribute fully to our economy.
Then I feel myself they should have a say in who governs.

As others should who are considered permanent resident taxpayers in other Countries.
That however is a matter for those Countries.
Just as our affairs are a matter for us.

The Mail this election won't be able to disgracefully stain Starmer's parents.
Like they set out to do with the Miliband's deceased Father up to 2015.

They will though overexaggerate and twist to lie completely in anything it can to try to help this massively discredited government stay in power..
With the trash that is the Mail being this governnents most vile of a mouthpiece.

I think a Knighthood should only be given if they must be, for exceptionally heroic actions.

Labour claims SNP trying to delay Rutherglen by-election

https://www.heraldscotland.com/resources/images/16823938.jpg?type=mds-article-962

Black Shirt - Time for War.

Reported to me
on GBnewsHD

Not on sad BBC.



[The accusation came as Sir Keir Starmer
was campaigning in the South Lanarkshire
constituency on Friday morning with Anas Sarwar
and candidate Michael Shanks.

However, Margaret Ferrier’s position
as the incumbent MP is safe for at least
ten more days, after a vote to suspend
her from the Commons was unexpectedly
pulled by the UK Government.

Reports suggest it could not go ahead
as there were not enough MPs in Parliament.]

Supporters of Sir Keir Starmer are "drunk with power" and conducting a purge of the Labour left, former shadow chancellor John McDonnell has said.

In a BBC Newsnight interview, the veteran left-winger warned that a "right-wing faction" was weakening the party.

He was speaking after figures on the left complained that they are being blocked from positions in the party.

He has raised his concerns with the Labour leader in writing, warning: "If you stumble, these are the people that will come for you."

The former shadow chancellor said: "What [Keir Starmer's] allowed to happen is a right-wing faction [has] become drunk with power and use devices within the party almost on a search and destroy of the left.

"They seem to be more interested in destroying the presence of the left in the party than getting a Labour government."

His intervention comes after aspiring MPs said they are being excluded from an approved list of parliamentary candidates drawn up by the party's National Executive Committee, Labour's governing body.

Sitting MPs facing selection battles in new seats created by the Boundary Review also say they are losing out to Starmer loyalists. Others on the left have been successful.

And Neal Lawson, director of campaign group Compass and a stalwart of the soft left, recently said he is facing an official investigation over some old tweets calling for cross-party co-operation.

The party says it is looking into his support for other political parties, which is a breach of Labour rules.

In a statement, a spokesperson told the BBC said it had "high standards" for prospective election candidates, and this was "absolutely right".

"This is a changed Labour Party back in the service of working people so we can build a better Britain," they added.

He really is irritating.
Gets me annoyed.

I accept he cannot detail costs and funding as to policies.
I accept he needs to look at the issues arising.
So cannot say what he will definitely do as to issues.

However he must have with the bits of information he has across the board on issues.
Just for goodness sake say what he firmly supports or intends to seriously look at if he wins power.
Or even just give his own feeling and view on an issue which he MUST have.

Starmer is really very fortunate to a degree that the current political temperature is more against the Cons.
He fails to inspire for me and things like he'll look at this or that with no expression of where his own thinking is.
Just give some answers and more importantly some hope to the people telling him of their current difficulties.

I don't want him to be like Blair, the grinning Cheshire cat who swept the Country with a kind of arrogance of flooding thoughts and ideas out like confetti.
One of Starmer's plus points is he's not like Blair in either style or delivery.
However a more detailed view of what he sees as to the road if he wins power, where does he WANT to be able to say the UK may be from whatever policies he will try to implement.

Just answer more directly, you don't have to give loads of details but stop being cautious or worried of saying the wrong thing.
Saying nothing or little can be as wrong as saying too much.

Just for goodness sake as to Keir Starmer, he needs to say what he means and mean what he says.
He'd earn certainly and likely gain more respect if he did

I was talking about where Starmer has come from his election to now, with all the backtracking and u-turns. Obviously only Corbyn and possibly Smith would be described as progressive, and it was in relation to Joeys journey over the 7 stages of grief, and the fact he struggled to accept the reality of who Starmer is.

Ultimately it's a catch 22 though isn't it... the reality is that the GBP will never elect a "real" Labour party. The world could be literally on fire and the country would continue to lean right-of-centre... Blair & co knew that, hence New Labour. Starmer knows it.

FWIW I still maintain that I will eat my hat if the Tories don't win the next election anyway, so it's all pretty moot. They're not going anywhere. They just haven't tipped their hand to show whatever smear-tactic-or-other they'll unleash for electioneering.

It's a weird one, because if you poll individual (progressive/socialist) policies, then they're always majorly popular, even with tory voters, but when they are put into the labour party, then people lose their minds.

I guess having the whole media and establishment pushing tories is bound to have an effect, to the point where they're voting against their own interests.

I think Starmer was uniquely placed for this election cycle to offer progressive policies without any need to worry about the tories, because they've screwed it up so much. People are desperate not to vote tory, and Keir constantly copying or agreeing with them, is giving voters a reason to stick where they are.

Tories won't be in government after the next election (I don't share your pessimism), but I'm hoping for a labour coalition as a best case scenario, preferably with the greens.

If labour get into government and do tory things, then the gbp will replace them with actual tories at the first opportunity. The way you change the gbp's opinion on the labour party, is to actually do things to make the lives of the citizenry better when they get the chance, and there is very little chance of that happening with this lot.

I think he's getting there, but it's been a long process to come to terms with what his labour party has become and now stands for. Hope he's doing well, and I hope he doesn't waste his time canvassing for this lot when the time comes.

Sorry to disappoint you Slim but I will be all out canvassing for a Labour government in the election.
I may have even put myself forward to possibly stand in the election had Starmer had the courage to include PR in the next election's manifesto.
However it's only through Labour that will come, so with other members we will be pushing hard over the next years to get PR included in the manifesto for the election nearer 2029.
That is one of my main personal political aims, because I do believe it could be the start for right and good political reform.
Plus it was passed massively at last year's conference.

I'm content with the plans for the NHS too.
I can go with most of what is being planned.

I also still believe Labour would be a more compassionate government.
There's not the tiniest hint of any sensitivity or compassion about the current Con party.

However, yes, I am going to be extremely disappointed, very much so, with the first Starmer led manifesto.
That disappointment though fades into insignificance at the thought of this shambolic, heartless government being allowed to continuing in power.
So I will be helping all ways I can to try to get this awful hard-line heartless Con lot out absolutely.
Despite my own personal dislike of and even anger at Starmer.

You'll never disappoint me, Joey.

We only get once chance every 20/30 years in this country to change it for the benefit of the many not the few (nod to jezza), so a bad labour gov doing nothing is actually worse long term, than another tory term imo. Because there is absolutely no reason to vote for a continuation of tory policies, but with a better smile.

The country will continue to leer dangerously rightward, unless they have a reason to participate in democracy. That was the post WW2 bargain that bankrupt govs across Europe committed to. Unless we do that now, then we're heading in the same direction as they were exactly 100 years ago.

The Smugglers will be called Terrorist under Starmer.

[This morning Labour are talking tough
on “smashing Channel migrant gangs”
to stop the boats, vowing to treat traffickers
like terrorists by freezing assets and restricting
their movements.
While Starmer appears in both The Sun
and The Times to sell his migrant deal to voters,
the Conservatives are already on
the counterattack: not only does the
deal junk the Rwanda plan,
it opens the door to thousands of EU migrants
in exchange for a new borders agreement
with Brussels.
Starmer is willing to accept a share
of asylum seekers in return for the
EU taking back migrants who arrive
via small boats.
Labour insist this is up for negotiation,
which is code for ‘yes’…

Stamer told The Times this morning:

“We effectively exited the returns agreement
we were in and have never replaced it.
The first job is to secure the borders and make
sure we are the ones determining who comes
to this country.”]

Also there are certain jobs that need filling that your average citizen see themselves as "too good" to be doing, so the Government (Tories or Labour) take illegal immigrants from primarily third world countries who don't understand the rights that they have, to do these unwanted jobs for pennies.

The man has been gifted a once in a 100yr opportunity as a labour leader, because the next election is all about the tories. He could say he wants to shoot thine king if he gets power, and he'd still win. Instead of using that opportunity to make drastic changes away from the disaster of the last 13 years, he insists on toeing the line and keeping their policies, to appease his corporate and media paymasters.

everyone knows that giving the tories another term in office would all but end our democracy, but the thought of Starmer in charge is not a pleasant one

its terrifying

The man has been gifted a once in a 100yr opportunity as a labour leader, because the next election is all about the tories. He could say he wants to shoot thine king if he gets power, and he'd still win. Instead of using that opportunity to make drastic changes away from the disaster of the last 13 years, he insists on toeing the line and keeping their policies, to appease his corporate and media paymasters.

Do you think Wes would do better? I am going off him a bit, truth be told. But as much as the left and right hate centralist's, i dunno. Maybe he wouldn't be a disaster.

I am against his privatising certain parts of the NHS, which is failing miserably under the Tories. However, the more i read from the Wes, his "person of the people" shtick is dwindling fast.

Personally, i think some common sense and understanding is needed. There is none. And us idiots, left, right, central keep arguing to the point now where we couldn't possibly unite.

We need a revolution, but it's never gonna happen in our lifetimes

It's always been a facade. That's the danger of these labour politicians, they don't really stand for anything. Wes loved Jeremys policies until the media started hitting him, now he loves starmers tory policies, if Starmer were to lose and it was someone else in charge, he'd love their policies. A man blinded by his own ambition to be leader, means that he stands for whatever he thinks will advance himself more.

I tried to warn you about this dude :laugh:

As I keep saying
It's not really a drastic change either returning to the 2030 position or just going with Sunak's now non event of a change.

I am livid with Starmer, everytime he says something I just groan..
Because I do agree with Slim, that he has been it seems gifted with a great chance to really change things bigtime.

I want this sickening government out.
For the NHS, the poorest, most vulnerable and sick and disabled.
I really am disappointed with the now likely policies that Starmer will present.
That disappointment at that however will be nothing as compared to thinking this rotten FROM the core current Con Party possibly winning again.

Anything that now gets them out is desirable to me.
I will however be very irritated at just what more Labour could have been really setting out to do with this chance at their feet.

I don't get how people can even be bothered to discuss politics anymore.

Because at a General Election
all in the UK
can change the PM.



On the Brexit Vote in 2016,
I noticed many people,
voting that were Never at the
normal elections.
So Referendums have a
Massive Super Power.



Politics is all about Change

I likely wouldn't have agreed with a lot Mrs Thatcher did.
However she I understood believed holding a referendum as a failure of governnent
So in that I agree.

You can't have a really fair UK wide referendum with a binary question, where England has almost 4 times the voting strength of N.Ireland, Scotland and Wales put together.
However England votes in any referendum, that is the much more than likely result.

For me politics, is life, the governments we elect and all the MPs have a big effect on our lives, families and incomes/livelihoods.

However as to parmnion's point.
I feel so disappointed and even shame at how badly the UK is now served by all leaders and all Parties across politics.
It's really depressing.

Yes Joey

David Cameron MP

some who voted out
