Keir Starmer

PPT said:
To try and justify the incompetence and sheer hard-faced behaviour of Starmer and his government.
They were sold the magic beans. The shiny new Labour government were going to right all of the wrongs. The adults would be in charge, so they were told. What they have got is a bunch of hypocrites who couldn't wait to put the boot into the old and the vulnerable, and have pushed their snouts firmly into the freebie trough. Sleaze follows them around like a bad smell and they have only been in power for a matter of weeks. It's not exactly what they were expecting, but they feel a desperate need to try and self-justify it now. A form of buyer's remorse or cognitive dissonance or maybe just plain old embarrassment.

Just so we know where you and your tag team partners are. Is there anything this Government has done since coming into power that have improved things - anything?

The issue is that the Tories were soundly battered at the GE, and rightly so, for not just their incompetence but also their sheer hard faced behaviour.
Starmer told the electorate that this would change under his Premiership, so I'm confused why posters are still digging up news relating to people who are no longer in power.

errr - Starmer has come clean thats the point - the previous lot ducked and dived to avoid saying anything about what they were being gifted

Lets forget about it then eh? Nothing to see here

You dont see the issue with him announcing the fuel cut on the same day his mrs was pictured in a £2k dress?

It's a damp(and freezing) squib I believe. Dying pensioners and lining your pockets is not important if you voted for the perpetrators these days it seems.

Bit depressing this country at the moment, divisions everywhere. The establishment have done a very good job.

The great British public don't get robbed by the thief they voluntarily hand over the TV.

Then complain they missed Eastenders.

Id say its more like a Grealish version of left wing, doesn't look like a left winger, spends a lot of time trying to cut inside to the more central position and occasionally find itself running over to the right hand side only to be called back by those in power.

Probably the most reasonable view so far

To be honest, I'm not even bothered much about freebies. I was much more incensed about the PPE money. Now THAT was criminal in my book.

If a PM gets the infrastructure of the country back on track, "serves" the country in the way Starmer said he would and ensures fairness for, and from, each member of the public then that's more important to me.

How much is her dress allowed to cost? Is there a cut off?

Whataboutery is either allowed or not allowed. Cherry picking makes any point moot.
 
The four stages of acceptance.

The four stages of acceptance can include denial, recognition, resignation, and acceptance.

It takes some a very long time indeed and some can never make it to step two.

Good luck with that. The problem you have with this one is that the "previous lot" are directly responsible for the course Labour are steering, but you know this already.

The last lot is responsible for Keirs conveyor belt of gifts? They are responsible for the death of Doris in November 2024.

I'm insulted you tried that one again.

Another stuck between denial and recognition.

Whatabout the whataboutery?

Not sure, but it can’t be mentioned as she is no longer PM. That’s how it works, right?

If a Tory voter cited something "bad" done by Callaghan when he was PM, and compared it to something done by Thatcher under her Premiership then that would be equally ridiculous.
Modern politicians have latched onto this though, and use it. We need to quit it because it gets nobody anywhere
