Keir Starmer

[TinFoilHat]

The big difference Starmer has made is he's a micromanager. Compared to every PM since May you can see he's doing his job. I can't accuse him of not doing fuck all. He feels the need to deal with everything and get shit done. It's commendable I say through my gritted teeth.

They forever mocked bluentrue before becoming him.

Nah. Everyone in here posts their own opinions not just post after post of twitter links.

He’s still busy posting those in the conservative thread practically on his own like one of those Japanese soldiers who doesn’t realise WW2 is over.

Give your head a wobble. So what, they are offered freebies and accept them, what's embarrassing about that?

Do you think Sunak et all were different?

Will the whataboutery ever stop on here? Me thinks not.

Still waiting for him to answer what’s embarrassing about it, perhaps you might know

It’s the same thing, just without the links.

Posts like this and your earlier one amuse me tbh as we have had years of the exact same thing re Tories yet as soon as it’s a Labour politician being targeted it’s not on?

Sorry but it is on, it’s to be expected I’m afraid.

True - although I do wonder if the Tories might be making a bit of an error going after the hospitality early on.

Labour have talked about banning second jobs, payments from lobbyists etc., which are very heavily skewed towards Tory MPs. All this fuss, might make a 'clean up' of politics a lot easier.

So how come Starmer needs full hospitality to go to a football match due to security but Sunak was happy in the stands with the rest of the fans.

Seem to recall Prince William and Prince George sitting in the stands at Norwich as well when Villa played there.

Two much more closely protected people than Starmer. Funny that.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

It's one I'm torn on.

If you're head of country. Having to work every single day making decisions which some we won't be privvy too, why not take the footy tickets. Watching your team is probably more therapeutic than cocaine.

I'd like to see him go full Tarquin in the corporate box mind.

Aren’t these the things he’s supposed to do as PM. I think it’s called ‘engagement’, or something like that, but now monetised and magnified by the R-W media.

I would have to read back, anyhow

But the Tories were/did..........
But Labour were/did..........

Both pointless, always discuss the policy/action in hand.

Now what you can and should do with whataboutery is this...

Yeah Poster but when Sunak took freebies you said it's not a problem/or didn't even comment.

That would be hypocrisy by the poster which needs calling out wherever its found.

Who did he engage with exactly? He went with Lammy and erm erm?
