More right wing than most on here, scary aint it.

I know pal, I am politically homeless and hope there will be a new party of the left which like minded people can support and be proud off. I cant support the Labour party anymore and it does sadden me, but we have to move on, accept the right wing of the party runs the show and acknowledge that Johnson could shit on the Queens head, burn down Parliament and start a war with Spain and still get elected with a thumping majority, that's if he hasn't shut elections down and anointed himself Supreme Leader of the fascist state of Britain.

Whatever your opinon of the issue

Labours legal team expected to win the libel case, so why settle? It can only be out of personal choice especially as the other independant internal report on these staffers proved they were openly mysoginistic, racist, elitist acting to undemine certain MPs and briefing against certain parts of the party in most aspects of their daily duties, the full story should have come out regarding what went on not this hush up and weak attempt at trying to put the whole thing to bed.

It should have gone to court and the truth be out either way.

Also once again when the tories are on the ropes of another scandal, Starmer decides to take a stand or actions that shove their ineptitude and bastardly ways off the headlines for another negative for his own party.

On delivering hammer blows and tiiming he is pretty fucking idiotic, but then that has been labours problem for over a decade no matter who is in charge, finding ways to turn moments the tories are weak into oportunities for them to get away with it

Disagree. Starmer settled to take a messy legal case involving anti-semitism and who knows what else out of the headlines. Every day would have been about who was mean to who and examples of all sorts of unsavoury behaviour instead of about Covid, Brexit, potential break up of the Union, buying dodgy satellite companies, Russian money flowing into Tory coffers or bungs to Ministers to get favourable housing decisions.

In short it was practical politics, shuts up the media about anti-semitism and allows Starmer to go on the offensive without worrying about his flank.

It may not be pretty but it is practical and shows a level of competence that has been absent in all three major parties for the past few years.

Sure, that sounds like a Michael Jackson solution, bung them $25 million and that'll
make it all go away, nobody will ever think he was a paedo.

I did. As far as I'm aware, Starmer wasn't settling on behalf of himself, more as a custodian of the party, which is an entity as opposed to an individual so the analogy didn't hold up for me.

Starmer has paid off anti semitism accusers, Jackson paid off a paedo accuser.
That there are more involved in the first case, doesn't negate the analogy, but
hey-ho, it's up to you.
