I'm concerned he's got a touch of the Kinnocks. If he acts and speaks like the election is in the bag. Daft twats will vote Tory to spite him.Was never Starmer‘s biggest fan, but he is nailing this speech.
I think I can feel the beginnings of hope. It’s been too long.
Why would you find poverty and food banks inspiring?The speech was an affirmation that the right are now in total control of Labour. The party is Blairite once again and is now safe for the establishment. Starmer even quoted Blair.
It was a pretty decent speech, not a great speech, but better than I have seen him, but he does not inspire me and I think many on the left will find it quite disappointing. No mention of social housing, no mention of foodbanks, little about poverty, but plenty on the Tory theme of aspiration.
It will be interesting to see the reaction of the RW media.
Clearly I'm just teasing, but the serious point is why would you want to hear Starmer complaining about what's wrong with society? Most people are inspired by positive visions, rather than critiques of what's gone wrong.
Yes, this is how democracies work.As all politicians do, promising the world but unlikely to deliver on any of it... talks the talk but wont walk the walk.
People say “vote for me and I’ll do this” and then you vote for them and if they win they do it, or they don’t and you hold them accountable by not voting for them again.
It’s not a perfect system but in general it’s preferred to the “vote for me just because” system.

The Daily Heil are confused though. They don't know how to act about Rupa Huq attacking Kwartang.

I used to hang out with Rupa when we both worked in Manchester. Always an interesting woman

That’s what I like to hear, we carry on with much of the same.Correct, like I said earlier Labour are no better than the tories. I seriously cannot vote for any of the current Political parties.

She gave a lovely speech in the house when the Queen died.
