[It's starting again, as it has before,
the slow digging up and highlighting of anything negative to any Labour leader really. To do anything to protect this creep in power now.] Yes Joey it has but this thread must have it all his Party Political Broadcast last week was good, except for the Music backing which made it into to a future movie clip. |

im waiting on a PM that will tell the truth, you wouldn't think that was a big ask. Sadly, i'm not convinced Keir is anymore truthful than the current incumbent

Quote:
I think he has far more integrity than Johnson in his fingers than Johnson has all through. Hard-line Con supporters won't agree and will at best say Starmer is no better than Johnson, however in my view he is. Even at this stage with under 4 years to go to an election. Anything can happen, however I'd doubt Labour can win an election under Starmer. I think a hung parliament will likely result again. I doubt that even Johnson will be leading the Cons then too. A hung parliament worries me however, as I feel the UK no matter the broken divided situation the UK could be heading to. What is needed is a colossal social change as to policies are required to rebuild justly and more compassionately after this pandemic is much more controlled. For me that won't come from the Cons, no way. I also can't see Labour under Starmer getting anything like the mandate for those changes either. Which is why, I will work for and hope the Labour party under Starmer will embrace PR for elections in future if elected. That I think is the only policy that will ignite interest of the majority of voters. Although that will start major panic in the Con party and among their hard-line supporters.. Because it should mean NO party, none of them, will be likely to ever be able to govern again alone, only with consensus. Which the Cons will absolutely hate. Thereby removing whatever extremes there may be as to any. Last edited by joeysteele; 07-02-2021 at 03:19 PM. |

Except it's not true. Starmer is openly expelling the left of his party, and no one is calling for JMcD.

Starmer has suspended Jews for antisemitism. Honestly, and not a word in the media about it.

Well it doesn't in any way surprise me that Starmer is on 33%.
The most surprising and really puzzling thing for me is that 33% think Johnson a good PM. That it's even possible a third of those polled think Johnson a best PM is to me really concerning after his display of near total incompetence. The excuse for Starmer can be no one can know until he was or if he became PM really. However they've already seen this inept PM in the job now. So no excuses there. .

[Woke radicals in the Oxford University Labour Club
have condemned former Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell for participating in a panel event with “known transphobe”. Selina Todd, a professor at one of the colleges with supposedly “a transphobic history”. Even the glorious leaders of the Corbyn revolution aren’t safe from the woke march for perfection.] [A statement released by the club say they are “disappointed to hear about John McDonnell’s acceptance” to appear at the event “and have contacted him directly to urge him to reconsider”] https://order-order.com/2021/02/12/o...r-transphobia/ |

Keir has yet another Speech
today - NewsnightHD bbc2 began with him. Last time it was his Mother. Social Democracy, and the Failed Conservatives. It is still the Corbyn split? Will have a Flag behind him? Last edited by arista; 18-02-2021 at 02:58 AM. |

He is saying the Mistakes
the Conservatives are making are what they always made. He said a Roadmap to Yesterday? If Keir was Prime Minister he would bring in a Recovery Bond Its Like an Election Speech Last edited by arista; 18-02-2021 at 10:28 AM. |

[11:25
Starmer suggests recovery bond to help rebuild the economy In what sounds like the first major policy announcement of his speech so far, Sir Keir floats the idea of a "British recovery bond". He says it would "raise billions". Trying to paint Labour as a fiscally-responsible party, he says he understands the value of people's hard-earned money they pay in taxes. "For too long Labour has failed to realise that the only way to deliver social justice and equality is through a strong partnership with businesses," he admits. "Under my leadership, that mindset will change." Preparing to wind up his speech, Sir Keir says: "The last decade of failed Conservative ideology and the last year of our collective suffering demand that we now create a new, more secure future."] https://news.sky.com/story/uk-covid-...asing-12220472 Last edited by arista; 18-02-2021 at 10:34 AM. |

There's some good thinking in there.
A long way to go and detail will be important obviously nearer an election but I like what I've heard. Last edited by joeysteele; 18-02-2021 at 11:07 AM. |
