Last year @Keir_Starmer was criticising the Tories for removing the whip from senior Tory MPs. Strangely he seems to have forgotten what he said then. #IStandWithJeremyCorbyn pic.twitter.com/rJiqTPvJcu— Diane Abbott MP (@HackneyAbbott) November 28, 2020

calz have you considered not posting about this guy for a week
― scampus fugit (gyac), Saturday, 28 November 2020 22:13 (five years ago)
have you ever considered not tone-policing other posters like some fucking pub landlady for a day or two? Nobody is perfect and to be quite frank I will post about what the fuck I feel like thank you very much.
― calzino, Saturday, 28 November 2020 22:18 (five years ago)
Oh yeah of course it was quite remiss of me to post about Stramer on the "have you quit the labour party yet?" thread

sorry about grumpiness, but FFS!

lol @ you using “pub landlady” as a pejorative, do point me to any other examples? Cos I actually like you calz and this guy is all you post about atm.

No it isn't. I have also posted about Burnley fc, Ingrid Laubrock and Diego M's corpse today. And that isn't including stuff I've posted about weather and drunken kitchen fires with an old friend on twitter. Maybe just mind own business rather than trying to lecture other people on how they should post, because that is just arrogant behaviour, gyac.

At #JLM2020, Joan Ryan called for "examination" by Starmer & frontbench of roots of antisemitism in Labour. Mike Gapes said Starmer had "been doing a good job so far – much better than I expected" & he "can't back down". Neither confirmed applying to join Labour again.— Sienna Rodgers (@siennamarla) November 29, 2020
critical support for Keith from Gapesy and Joan "look into your hands" Ryan.

what a triumph for ecumenism, what party wouldn't be improved by having Mike Gapes in it?

Peter Mandelson just told me this at @JewishLabour conference: in short, he said, Labour can't allow the left to legalise party management as it did in the 1980s. So ERHC recommendation of an independent disciplinary process cannot stand. See @siennamarla for more updates https://t.co/PBpmHlAuAi— Gabriel Pogrund (@Gabriel_Pogrund) November 29, 2020

Thanks for doing that 20 minutes of unconscious bias training @Keir_Starmer, but perhaps the measure of your commitment to antiracism might be in opposing the deportation of Windrush descendants and people who have lived in the UK since childhood?— Ash Sarkar (@AyoCaesar) December 1, 2020

Unconscious bias training fixes the unconscious, not the bias.

My meltish former Labour local MP has unfollowed me for slagging off Starmer so much, but I've gained the much superior former Colne Valley MP, Thelma Walker as a follower. She's one of them who has quit the party over Corbyn's treatment and can't fucking stand him.

Just left the most shambolic Leeds North West CLP meeting where a motion of no confidence in Keir Starmer and Dave Evans could not be tabled essentially due to filibustering as people ran down the clock until the meeting had to end - a ridiculous and undemocratic stitch up.— George Aylett (@GeorgeAylett) December 4, 2020
