I hope he's talking about the Morning Star. There aren't many other candidates.

Windmill tilting in the right direction on this bullshit. Weird how I thought the Children's Act was supposed to protect human rights

i wonder why this is different to the many other long term decisions children are able to give informed consent to

The constant use of Keith instead of Keir seems a bit like that underlying racism where all the difficult or foreign sounding names should be anglicised. Literally every time I see it, that's the first thing I think of. It's disappointing.

are Keirs of the factory running classes a race now? lol!

calzino, Wednesday, 2 December 2020 13:09 (three years ago) link

Keir is difficult to spell seemingly, but foreign?

Keith is as foreign as Keir you plank.

Let's bend a knee for Kier. Posh white men's life matter as well, even if they have stupid names!

If there any Labour history geeks that want to name their kids after a historical Labour leader, they should consider other options in future.

Reminds me of when Rangers fans started thinking the Scottish press were biased against them (I mean, can you believe it?) and nicknamed the Daily Record the Daily Rebel and the Sunday Mail the Sunday Liam.

STARMER: "When I abstain, I come to the House and explain - when the Prime Minister abstains he runs away to Afghanistan." #PMQs

I wish Keith would run off to Afghanistan, without bravely explaining the reasoning for his political cowardice.

3 in Kirklees, now 5 more councillors in Lancaster that have quit Labour over Keith's stupid voice.

Speaking of Keith, who remembers last year's Highland League fixture when Keith scored 5 times for Keith, in Keith's 11-0 win over Fort William? Keith FC are ultra-Keith, the only Keith, exuding Keithness that Keith Starmer can only envy. pic.twitter.com/FdiPJnWP2X

it's so fucking lame that Dudds talks like the main problem with New Labour was the tax-credits spending that at least temporarily lifted millions people out of poverty. Fucking soft-left my arse, more like soft-tories.

“Labour’s biggest trade union backer Unite has failed to make any donations to the party since Sir Keir Starmer was elected leader...”

under new management

calzino, Saturday, 5 December 2020 10:17 (three years ago) link

Individual donations have dried up as well. No wonder they don’t want to give that racist property developer’s money back.

Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Saturday, 5 December 2020 10:26 (three years ago) link

I made an individual donation last year as a benefits scum member of the party. You might be shocked to hear I wouldn't give them the steam off my piss now.

calzino, Saturday, 5 December 2020 10:29 (three years ago) link

beyond the short term goal of appeasing a thousands of tory voting bigots in the north who need shoes labelling L-R, Starmer will be turning a lot of the younger voters who came to Labour because of Corbz away into politically homeless wilderness which could a much bigger problem for Labour's financial and electoral prospects going into the future.

calzino, Saturday, 5 December 2020 10:36 (three years ago) link

I wonder how many of the bloated whales that abandoned Miliband/Corbz Labour for the Tories can be won back and at what price, not that Starmer nor the party has much of a rep left to protect.

calzino, Saturday, 5 December 2020 10:49 (three years ago) link

Unite really not making any donations since April?

Excellent if true! I thought there would be structures that meant they were constantly donating, like a direct debit. But clearly they would right to withhold funding now.
