Can't think why she deleted it.

At least she was encouraged to stand down, and expelled from the Labour party, though.

So the Wakefield directed stories have begun. Apparantly they should vote Labour -

Ahmad Khan’s conviction, Partygate and recent Conservative policies have swayed constituents to the left

I thought the lefties hated jewish people. That was the line right? 

[OutByEaster?]

I don't like him much, but that's a fine effort by Starmer in the house, addressing Johnson's lawbreaking, lies and lack of dignity or respect for the people or the house.

So they lied about Rayner being at the poxy drinks event that the Daily Mail are trying to say is equivalent to partygate. The issue is ridiculous - but still there was some dishonesty on Labour's part - not good.

Utter hypocrites.

None of what has been reported broke any covid rules at the time.

Trouble we have is that 90% of the media hold the opposition to standards that the party actually in government could only dream of reaching. Those actually in power aren't held to account for blatant act after blatant act of taking the piss, breaking laws and telling lies. 

 

On top of the above when all else fails make shit up it'll influence some easily led aresehole to stick an X next to a Tory.

My issue is that Starmer lied to the membership about what he wanted were he elected - and now there has been an entirely unnecessary lie which I think was made in order to keep the pressure on about partygate. I always labelled Boris a liar - but I have to say Starmer is also a liar - are we to decide which liar we prefer? What a shit choice.

Kind of where im at. Both parties are a disgrace. Its so sad there is no alternative to these two

God people are **** thick. No wonder we’re in the state we’re in. It’s never changing is it. It’s just this shit life governed by rich evil assholes and a populace more interested in a lady crossing her legs than the people in charge causing destruction. No future at all apart for the rich.

So he's a liar because you don't believe him, not because he's actually had a chance to do something and not done it?

It's a very novel concept, I'll give you that

Both parties are a disgrace. Really.

It is like labelling two people as arsonists. One who popped down to the local garage and got themselves 10 gallon of petrol, doused your house in it and set it alight with you and your family in it. The other for going into their own garden on a sunny day with a magnifying glass and singeing a small patch of grass.

Starmer's Labour party are a piece of bread that's gone a bit hard at the corner but it's still in date and you could always toast it.

This Tory party are a bottle of Sarin.

Still, both bad ain't they?

He’s a liar because he has lied - I accept you need to bend the truth in order to gain power but the moral high ground is no longer labours territory. I cannot vote for it.

I don’t think there’s been even one Labour politician in history who has never told a lie. That seems an impossible standard to hold him to.

If your view is that Starmer isn’t left enough and you’d rather continue with the Tories in power than see him elected then just say that.

That whole argument just makes me so mad. I have an uncle that’s very “old labour” who won’t vote for starmers labour because he doesn’t think it’s “proper labour”.

It’s a childish and pathetic attitude. Even if you believe this labour incarnation is far from perfect, and many do, even those not on the hard left, it’s surely better than the pure evil we have now?

I genuinely think there’s an element that wants to burn the whole house down because they aren’t happy with the wallpaper.

Boris is being criticized for breaking the laws that he implemented. Starmer appears to being criticized for doing some similar things, but at a different time that didn't break the law.

This "all the same" bollocks is quite tiring.

Labour isn't perfect, Starmer is far from perfect, but if you've watched the shit this government has been getting away with, particularly since 2019, and still think "they're all the same", there's no helping you
