Keir Starmer

[blueparrot]

Power without principles is aimless.

Nice words, useless to everyone, but nice.

I find Starmer deeply unimpressive. But would he be better than Johnson? Yes. Would he be better than any Tory likely to replace Johnson? Yes.

The present incarnation of the Tory Party represents everything that is bad in Britain. It is dangerous, literally dangerous, to our future.

Johnson must go, the lot of them must go. Starmer is piss poor, but he's the only realistic alternative.

Alas, poor country! You have come to this!

I would literally have any post war PM (except May, but including Thatcher, who I despised) before this dangerous clown Johnson.

It was "A much improved PMQs by the Prime Minister."

And that's the way it will be reported at six o clock news time.

There was even a hint of personality from Keir with his digs about speech prep and Tories showing up this week.

Easy to do but Starmer needs to stick the knife in and draw blood.
Sadly PMQs always comes as back-patting by the Tories.

May was better than Johnson and she was hopeless.

Whatever happened to the Johnson thread ?

The worst PM in living memory surely deserves his own thread.

Standing by and making strong arguments for the pledges he was elected on .... The ones you presented as a gotcha to Rascal for suggesting he had no principles.

Yes I am aware of that.

Your usual lazy narrative again

Rupert Murdoch? Sorry can't answer that question seriously we're back to power without principles again.

If the ultimate goal is to effectively get the Tories out of power the only Labour MP that has come up with anything is Clive Lewis. He proposed a cross party progressive alliance to unseat Tories get a majority and get rid of the 2 party system.

Above all I'm far from convinced that trying to recreate the glory years of the late 90s early 00s is a winning strategy ... the world has moved on. All a bit raggish for me. I wonder if Keith has the balls to park in Mandelsons car park space?

Clive Lewis needs listening to

Didn't think he had it in him

Starmer having a reshuffle. Replacing anyone who's left of him.
