I prefer to think of Keir Starmer as a #Quisling!
His Labour Party #Cabinet is a fetid colostomy bag full of Quislings!
The National Executive Council [#NEC] and Parliamentary Labour Party [#PLP] are full of #Netanyahu-funded Labour Friends of Israel [#LFI] & #JewishLabour Quislings!
They *all* collaborate with the #British deep state & with the genocidal #Zionist entity in undermining #British democracy &, now, in creating a #Zionist-infested #Palantir-enabled #FarRight dictatorship.

“[#UK] Labour’s desperate and disgusting smear video has fallen flat”

@thetimes“As the May 2026 local elections draw near, the Labour party’s fear of the Greens is written as clearly in its campaign as Keir Starmer’s brylcreemed vacuity. Just like its utter lack of substance, ideas, and integrity. And wow, did it show in the abject failure of its naked attempt to smear the Green party in a dire new video”

“Starmer is an overflowing political diaper that desperately needs changing”
by Rachael Swindon in The Canary
@thecanaryuk
@uk_politics
@UKLabour“May I remind you, the man was elected on a platform of change — bold, principled, transformative change. Instead, we’ve got the same old rotten stench wafting from Downing Street: broken pledges on nationalising energy, U-turns on workers’ rights, grovelling to billionaires while the poor queue at food banks, and a foreign policy that makes Tony #Blair look like a fucking pacifist”

“Starmer's go-to excuse: 'I was in the dark'. Don't believe it. He's deeply in the loop”
by Jonathan Cook on Substack
“From Jimmy #Savile to Peter #Mandelson, Starmer has followed a trajectory of career-enhancing ignorance. He knows far more than he lets on. It's the reason, after all, why he was knighted.
[..]
“This is one long trajectory of career-enhancing ignorance and incompetence. Does any of it sound even vaguely plausible?”

“Journalist publishes full interview with suspended Labour MP”
by Willem Moore in The Canary
@thecanaryuk
@thecanary
@UKLabour
@uk_politics“On 31 March, we reported that Labour had suspended Karl Turner. Turner had criticised Labour’s plan to abolish jury trials as a universal right; he’d also given an interview to independent journalist and Canary contributor Jody McIntyre.
Following his suspension, Turner tried to distance himself from McIntyre. Now, McIntyre has set the record straight”

Paraphrasing Leo Amery MP in his 1940 Parliamentary speech (himself paraphrasing Cromwell)
“You [Keir Starmer] have sat too long here for any good you have been doing. Depart, I say, and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go.”

In these tumultuous times, my focus is twofold: strengthening international ties from Brussels to Geneva and ensuring @coe states recommit to human rights as the bedrock of the emerging global order.
From digital governance to protecting civil society and supporting Ukraine's peace process and recovery, read my February News Roundup for a deep dive into my recent work. 👇

“Rich right-wingers are calling for DWP [Department for Work and Pensions] cuts in order to pay for defence”
by Hannah Sharland in The Canary
@thecanaryuk
@uk_politics
@UKLabour
@ZackPolanski“Right-wing warhawks have been doubling down on calls to slash Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) welfare to fund imperialistic warmongering against Iran.
Naturally, it’s the usual suspects spearheading the charge, namely opaquely-funded think tanks, the billionaire press, and of course, their co-conspirators in parliament.
And once again, these rich colonial capitalist assholes all want to make poor and disabled people cannon fodder for their illegal invasions.”

“Labour’s ‘normalisation of racism’ is a ticking time bomb in marginal seats”
by Antifabot in The Canary
@thecanaryuk
@uk_politics
@UKLabour“Labour is in deep trouble with Black voters. Operation Black Vote (OBV) chair David Weaver warns the party is ‘accepting the normalisation of racism’. This isn’t just a polling dip, it is a fundamental collapse of trust from its voters”

“Nigel Farage's pitch to the worst people in Britain”

“Nigel Farage says that he wants to cut the price of a pint by 5p, and pay for it by re-imposing economic sanctions on British children for the "crime" of having more than one sibling”

I agree with Kevin Gopal; the real test of the focus & seriousness of the Govt.'s Child Poverty Strategy will be how it impacts the North of England, andWales where child poverty is notable more widespread than in the SE.
While there are pockets of good news (see the Gopal's short account of Preston Council's local strategy's impact), this strategy can only be said to be a success if the regionally skewed experience of poverty is reduced.

The Labour Govt. has launched a Child Poverty Strategy , which of course started with lifting the two-child benefit cap (but stoped short of lifting the overall household benefit(s) cap. Its other elements are laid out below, but the key thing to know (given my remarks yesterday about in-work benefits), is that the majority of children in poverty have at least one parent in work!

Child poverty, homelessness hit new highs in mining-rich WA
"Findings from the Child Poverty in Australia report released on Monday found one in six children in WA are experiencing food insecurity, poor housing conditions and limited access to healthcare. More than 100 children and young people are sleeping rough in Perth every night, charities say."

"Australia a glorified quarry with some beaches. Australia does little besides digging stuff out of the ground to create national prosperity." Governance and tax enforcement is “the invisible machinery that turns a quarry into a country."

From 10 years ago, and still (increasingly) true:
"It has played a major role in a remarkable variety of crises: the financial meltdown of 2007‑8, the offshoring of wealth and power, of which the #PanamaPapers offer us merely a glimpse, the slow collapse of public #health and #education, resurgent #ChildPoverty, the epidemic of loneliness, the collapse of ecosystems, the rise of Donald #Trump."

The Women's Budget Group network on the two child benefit cap:
Dr Sara Reis, deputy director at UK-WBG concludes: 'No child’s future should depend on how many siblings they have. From Belfast to Cardiff, Edinburgh to London, the two-child limit is pushing families into poverty... Ending it in full would give over half a million children a fairer start'!
Scotland has already moved to alleviate its effects, now the cap needs to be removed.
