  1. And on the subject of the wretched #Starmer, here is #AlexeiSayle reading his magnificently contemptuous slam poem "I hate Keir Starmer".

  2. speaking of zoe williams, when she's good she's fucking superb

    'Starmer, in short, was bad at politics in so many ways, and in ways that oughtn’t to coexist within the same politician. He wasn’t a communicator, but nor was he a meticulous or far-sighted planner. He had no backbone, and yet was incredibly rigid. He was extremely tribal in his determination to extinguish the left of his party, and yet he didn’t seem to have his own loyal tribe. None of that really matters, since he’s unlikely to trouble parliament again, but it matters what we thought we saw in him, and why'

  11. CW: UKPol Starmer Stand Down as MP

    Less than a year ago Starmer argued that a mayor couldn't stand down early because of the cost to the party and the country of running an election.

    Today we learn he is gonna quit being an MP.

    I' not quite in the seat, but I'm close enough I could go campaign I suppose.

  16. "The Labour Party […] is a centralised, bureaucratic organisation that plays a key role in UK democracy whether or not the Labour Party is in government. The right [of the party] never truly ceded control over the Labour Party machine, even when Corbyn was in power. As observers from across the political spectrum have documented, key players on the Labour right worked behind the scenes to undermine him throughout his tenure."

    Burnham "has flip-flopped enough times for the Labour machine’s apparatchiks to accept he is no threat to their project.
    "Perhaps more importantly, Burnham lacks a coherent base that might hold him to account were he to tack to the right once in office. He doesn’t have strong links with the unions or any social movements. He is relatively popular among the Labour membership, but the Party has been so centralised under Starmer that members now play a much-diminished role – and Burnham is unlikely to change this.
    "In short, as with Starmer, there will be no one to challenge him if he reneges on commitments. Equally, there will be no one to defend him if the Labour machine turns on him.

    "The challenge Burnham faces is unresolvable within the current political settlement. For as long as Labour exists as a cartel, divorced from a mass base, it will remain a playground for lobbyists and consultants. These interests will fight tirelessly for their preferred policies – policies that directly contradict the interests of the majority of people in the UK. And any leader who attempts to democratise the Labour Party and take on these vested interests will be eliminated by the Labour machine.
    "The only way to square this circle is to build power outside the Labour Party".

    Don’t be duped by Burnham’s more “down with the people” personable ways, his mediagenic looks and his “Labour needs to change” drivel! He’s still a creature of the #IsraelLobby & the British establishment

  18. “Keir Starmer: The PM who hated you (and couldn’t even do it competently)”

    by Ricky From Council Estate Media on Substack

    @uk_politics
    @UKLabour

    “If I was asked to describe #Starmer’s time in charge, the genocide wouldn’t even be the first thing that springs to mind. Don’t get me wrong, it’s unquestionably the worst thing he did, but genocide is almost to be expected of a British prime minister. I’m pretty sure it’s somewhere in the terms and conditions.

    What is most striking about the last two years is just how proudly Starmer showed his contempt for those he’s supposed to represent”

  20. #HouseOfLords is the world's 2nd-largest legislative chamber. Only China's National People's Congress is bigger. After the removal of the hereditaries, it now consists of 26 bishops and 746 unelected political cronies.

    It should be replaced by a much smaller elected Senate. But instead of a purge, the much-hated outgoing Prime Minister #Starmer has appointed 26 new cronies, including at least 1 fatcat donor.

    And they still claim that #UKania is a democracy! 😅🤣

  21. Any Brits out there labouring under the impression that Andy Burnham is gonna be any different from the #KidStarver as/ when he becomes Labour leader & PM need to watch this vid featuring Declassified UK’s Matt Kennard!

    Reality: Burnham is just Starmer with a more Northern, folksy, telegenic personality! Like Starmer he’s a “creature” of the neoliberal wing of the party (loves Israel; unconvinced about whether Gaza is a #PalestinianGenocide; committed to #NHS privatisation etc).

  24. “Burnham must break with Starmer's dishonest politics, or fail just like him”

    by Jonathan Cook on Substack

    @uk_politics
    @UKLabour

    “Keir Starmer’s announcement on Monday that he was stepping down as Labour leader – and therefore as Britain’s prime minister – is a remarkable turnaround for the man whose election victory less than two years ago was uniformly heralded as a triumph.

    In fact, Starmer rode into 10 Downing Street on a grand deception, propped up by the UK’s establishment media, that has proven the key to his undoing”

  28. “Keir Starmer's Resignation and The Real 'Moral Bankruptcy' That Brought Him Down”

    by Adam Bienkov in The Byline Times on Substack

    @uk_politics
    @UKLabour

    “As the sixth British Prime Minister to have stood down in the last ten years, Starmer may never feature as a major part of our political history.

    Yet if Downing Street does end up falling into the hands of Nigel Farage and his fellow travellers on the far-right, then the truth is that Starmer and his own moral failures will have played a significant role in that fall”

  29. Monday. #TheMadCountry has decorated #10DowningStreet like a #flagshaggers' convention. 🤮 Or a roundabout in Bedfordshire.

    The door opens. #LarryTheCat runs away. Wise man, #Larry. 👍 👏

    Then the 4 most unpopular leaders in Europe emerge: #Macron, #Starmer, #Merz, #Zelensky.

    The quartet then botches a #GroupHug like no hug has ever been botched before. The unhuggiest unhug in the history of unhugs. #Cringetastic

    These boys make the case for choosing leaders by #sortition look overwhelming.
