Keir Starmer

[meltonblue]

Mate, I don't pretend to be into politics and you could very well be right about a whole host of things.

That said, the very fact that I've never heard a single word of positivity from him and only ever heard him critisise everyone and everything speaks volumes.
You cannot constantly critisise without offering something yourself. You're your own person and may be willing to overlook it but I'm not. Everytime I heard him spike it's vile and cowardly.

And yes, he really did say that following the live announcement of the lockdown.

The other thing that isn't right, I'm someone who has studied and worked in people management for years. He is constantly coming out and "demanding" this, that and the other.
He shouldn't be demanding anything, his mannerisms and language is a million miles from where it should be. Demanding things is not the way to achieve anything.
As I said, absolute cretin.

What I would like to see is some open debate about the way forward. I saw Matt Hancock this morning being asked if he had spoke to Tony Blair about Covid and he refused to answer. Why?
Why do they feel shame for asking for advice, support, assistance.

Politicians as a whole are unpleasant but Kier is one which stands out for the wrong reasons even beyond those.

Yeah agree with a lot of that in terms of his delivery and like I said, I’m not a big fan of him either. I just don’t want there to be no criticism or scrutiny of the government either.

I don't really agree. I've not seen a single shred of positivity from him.

Even when they announced the 3rd lockdown he said "I agree because now is not the time to critisize the government for their delays" and by saying that, even then in this most desperate moment, he has managed to worm in critisism. Its not the time nor the place.

What he should be saying is "absolutely, stay home, protect the NHS and save lives" and that's it. But he can't help himself.

There are two types of PMs, those that rise above people in order to lead and those who push others down in order to be above them.

He's a pusher, spends all his life telling the world how everyone else is doing it wrong without commiting himself to a course which itself could be picked apart. He's a first class cretin of the highest order.

This.

That's why he's currently got his acting chair suspending anyone who even outs a motion in to debate his actions.

I reckon you two could sit in a room saying lots of big words to each other over a bottle of whiskey or 5.

Whisky, maybe.

Whisky, maybe.

And that's why you earn the millions and I earn the pennies. You have the smarts.

Whisky, maybe.

What if it's Jamesons or is is scotch or nowt

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

What if it's Jamesons

Depends which one. A punter got me a personalised bottle of the Black Barrel for my 50th, which I promised to keep for a rainy day, which ended up being a month later, which I really enjoyed, but I think that Irish whiskey is inferior to Scottish malt and ‘standard‘ Jameson's is alright, but nothing more. Not really fan of bourbon either, although I’ve been known to drink that too from time to time!

Some right real Werther’s in here, think they’re got more political clout than a politician. Or is he a solicitor?
