Spot the unconvincing puppet with Keir Starmer's hand up his arse.

I know it’ll have been a fair amount of tactical voting there but Labour losing their deposit whilst the greens double their vote share isn’t a great look for the impending Labour landslide https://t.co/UDaJAf3NSy

Current headline on the guardian...

Starmer urges Khan to ‘reflect’ on Ulez rules after Uxbridge defeat

Labour leader hails Selby byelection victory but says London mayor must consider expansion of ultra-low emission zone

God I hate this prick. Yeah tory voters don't want environmentally progressive policies, big fucking surprise. How to address that? Be more tory! Fuckhead.

NickB, Friday, 21 July 2023 17:03 (one year ago) link

I tend to think this is right. There is no going back now and the ratchet effect will be applied until the the handle snaps off. Everyone talking about "wasted opportunities" to propose left policy with a relatively high poll lead simply does not understand the goals of the labour right. To them this is a golden chance to cement Blairism in even harsher, hegemonically dominant terms so there will be no backsliding into socialism for the British state. Blair's own recent comments are the clue to what they want to do.

The one thing you can say for certain about Starmer’s Labour is however right wing you think it is now, it’s going to become a lot more right wing in the months ahead https://t.co/wo9xfT7jPB

i'm sure every single person crying about ulez absolutely relies on their car and has no option to use public transport

tfw a prospective Labour govt is actually going to be worse than the Tories. In some ways a detestable glazed ham like Starmer with a dreadful voice is probably a good thing because whoever is in his place - it will be the same party machine policy makers and influences driving the direction and this cunt has hung parliament written all over him.

Unfortunately conspiracy theorists have got a hold of it too, I've had a "discussion" with one of them in my work.

Just watching Yvette Cooper looking extremely uncomfortable about having to blame Tory austerity measures for these figures - you could tell even saying the word "austerity" stuck in her craw. Of course, thereafter, not promising to spend any more money on the problem and instead vaguely talking up linking addiction treatment to improvements in crime prevention. Vile.

Also I saw Ed Miliband the other day talking about the climate crisis having obviously been briefed to make sure he namechecked Starmer and Rachel Reeves. Somebody just shoot that guy and put him out of this misery.

lonely guy, thinking baout freedom

Talking about freedom, sat in Margaret Thatcher’s old Rover.

Earlier I spoke to @Telegraph about how important cars are for families to live their lives. It’s something anti-motorist Labour just don’t seem to get.

And it’s why I’m reviewing anti-car schemes across the country. pic.twitter.com/0OiKhFLjc3

I could be wrong but does Sunak seem to only have one mode - grinning like an idiot, an uber-consumercapitalist smiley everything-is-great facial expression all the time? Cameron had his serious face, May had her stern face, Johnson had his vicious scowl. Sunak is the totemic sunny face of late authoritarian capitalism all the time. I find him more botlike than May even

LOL this is so fucking pathetic and transparently desperate it makes the Labour Party seem competent.

pitiful claim that they don't want to create uncertainty for businesses, when unequivocally saying "we will revoke all these new licences" would create certainty
