Keir Starmer

[Alan Harper's Tash]

I've not encouraged you to vote for any party other than Labour.

Let's call it a day.

This whole thread needs a day calling on it.

 

[Postman Pep]

Like this government's policies weren't in theirs?

Fair point. It's not as if he hasn't got a track record of flip-flopping on pledges. I see rail nationalisation is back on the agenda, let's hope it stays there.

I hope he also takes note of what my union leader said today.

He's already ruled it out

Keir Starmer defies call for changes to first past the post voting system

The Labour leader said electoral reform was not a priority and refused to make it one of the party’s election manifesto pledges

He can kindly fuck right off then

Conference agrees to a manifesto commitment of PR voting.

Starmer will do as he's told.

I know they haven't yet but they may need to get the Lib Dems, Greens on side

We have been down that route. If they don't believe in changing it they don't believe in fairness. They want power even if they don't have sufficient support of the people. He's in it for himself and the long-term future of the country is a side issue.

They're like the tories but just with a different demographic.

When I say they I mean those on his team rather than the Labour Party in general.

How do the Tories spin the idea that everyone's vote in every seat now counts as a bad thing?

 

[hilts]

Lots of words. Your inaction/inability allows the chances of a Tory victory at the next election, doesn't it?

Now, in an ideal world, I’d love to take all you’ve said into consideration whilst voting, but if I did that and voted Green or for whoever, it means the Tories are more likely to get in than if I voted Labour.

How many votes do you get? Bloody hell I only get 1:-)

Have you not heard about postal voting? ;-)

my biggest fear with Starmer

'How did he miss that?' - player fluffs open goal

Watch Chatham Town's Emmanuel Oloyede miss an open goal from a few yards out in their FA Cup second qualifying round game against Walton & Hersham.

Not that he might be a US Democrat?
