Am i supposed to believe there’s no video of this

Witness says Starmer had to be 'pulled away' by another Labour MP https://t.co/FMPv8DA36S

the people demand to know who pulled off kieth

It's taken me a while but I now fully understand and endorse calz's murderous (not really) hatred for this cunt Starmer.

Waterloo Subset (Tom D.), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:10 (three years ago) link

So apparently he confronted Boris over Boris saying he previously supported the UK staying in the European Medicines Agency (which he did), a MP got their phone out to prove it, SKSQC had to be dragged away by one of the Labour whips. Embarrassing, he wasn’t even right!

wangdalf the blight (gyac), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:12 (three years ago) link

that's some proper deranged behaviour, dude is clearly shook

Ace Attorney comparisons just getting more accurate over time tbh

i continue to be amazed that anyone thought the architect of Labour’s Brexit policy would be fit to do more than stack wood

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:19 (three years ago) link

Think its time to look at AVB again tbh

Qanondorf (darraghmac), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:20 (three years ago) link

like.... this is the issue that split your party. this is the circle you failed to square. this is where you chickened out at the last second and disastrously supported a people’s vote, handing the tories all the ammunition they would ever need to call you the party of dither and delay. sure corbyn and mcd share some of that blame. but it’s your entire brief! and you fucked it, comprehensively! and now you’re leader??

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:22 (three years ago) link

Some amazing deluded comments from Starmer fans

Money’s on Starmer. Fitter. Lighter on his feet. Johnson looks one step too close to a heart attack if asked to exert himself.Johnson could possibly squash him but I doubt he could last to the bell.

ao3 is that way, babe

wangdalf the blight (gyac), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:22 (three years ago) link

it’s a bit like t may, tbh. you campaigned against brexit - and now you’re in charge of implementing it?? this fuckin country

Kieth dragged away screaming "but the love the Queen" according to eye witnesses

The Man DeLorean (onimo), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:24 (three years ago) link

*I*

The Man DeLorean (onimo), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:25 (three years ago) link

Tracer, what your analysis fails to take into account is that the election result was not in fact about brexit but aboiut Jemeny Cumbyn, who is a very bad man.

That being said, now that it's all done we must accept the result and hump the union jack.

You’ll know you’ve fucked the flag enough when you’ve changed it into an England flag without needing to bleach it.

The way the politico-media complex treats veteran conscripts alive or dead has always been disgusting, dishonest, the final insult on the top of the pile. But the beatification of one dead centenarian in the name of erasing 100,000 plus victims of government indifference is some new low of collective self-hypnosis

hope keir's not over-exerted himself there, need to save your strength for clap-wanking yourself into a frothy batter later on

lol, time to give it up Kieth - you make Boris look forensic

calzino, Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:38 (three years ago) link

He’s had a fucking nightmare here

wangdalf the blight (gyac), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:43 (three years ago) link

I'd say the magic's gone but twas ever thus!

calzino, Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:49 (three years ago) link

Critical support for... Boris Johnson?

if boris had lamped kieth he'd have secured my vote, i am a one-issue voter and that issue is kieth getting punched

you are like a scampicane, there's calm in your fries (bizarro gazzara), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:52 (three years ago) link

denying you said something when you did - none more prime ministerial

nashwan, Wednesday, 3 February 2021 14:56 (three years ago) link

If I stuck to my guns really adamantly about something like that at work or whatever and turned out to be wrong I'd still be waking up in a cold sweat about it ten years later. And he's done it in front of the entire fuckin nation, on camera, while running an entire personal brand of "I am boringly competent"

blasting "Ashes To Ashes" today at 6pm in tribute

Daniel_Rf, Wednesday, 3 February 2021 15:03 (three years ago) link

I will be dying as a result of an illegal holiday to Barbados in tribute. Please arrange for my carcass to be couriered to BA's marketing team

I'm going to be clapping some zinc oxide onto my throbbing haemorrhoids or my Keirs & captain Toms as I now call them!

calzino, Wednesday, 3 February 2021 15:21 (three years ago) link

No point putting any zinc oxide on Kieth, he's shrunk so small today he's on the subatomic level

calzino, Wednesday, 3 February 2021 15:26 (three years ago) link

It is indeed pretty fucking wild that Cap'n Moore was in Barbados a month or so ago, couldn't be vaccinated due to some compatibility issue with other medication he was on (iirc?) but was still allowed family at his bedside (according to their statement).

nashwan, Wednesday, 3 February 2021 15:31 (three years ago) link

He had pneumonia!

wangdalf the blight (gyac), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 15:46 (three years ago) link

He had post-covid pneumonia but so did my partner's mother recently and she had a first jab while still recovering from that - so I'm confused about what the barriers were here tbh

nashwan, Wednesday, 3 February 2021 16:09 (three years ago) link

Where are all the Captain Tom conspiracy theories is what I want to know.

Waterloo Subset (Tom D.), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 16:28 (three years ago) link

JEEEEEEEESUS CHRIST

NEW: Labour say Starmer "misheard the Prime Minister" during PMQs.

“Keir accepts that, on this occasion, the Prime Minister was referring to old comments about the European Medicines Agency and Keir admits he was wrong and made a mistake in his response."

He's lost the dressing room lads

THIS SENILE OLD TROT CAN'T RRMEMBER WHAT HE'S SAID ONE WEEK TO THE NEXT

Scampi reggae party (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 16:39 (three years ago) link

I can't wait to see how he reacts to some real concerted pressure, like say during an election campaign when the knives are out for whoever the Labour leader is, even if they aren't as lefty as Corbz and pretend to fuck flags and salute Prince Andrew!

calzino, Wednesday, 3 February 2021 16:42 (three years ago) link

He’s got at least three Gillian Duffy moments in him

wangdalf the blight (gyac), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 16:47 (three years ago) link

He'll be gone before the end of the season. Imagine how stressed the Blairite cunts propping him up feel already, only thing is they'll be shitting themselves at the thought of a leadership election

Scampi reggae party (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 3 February 2021 16:59 (three years ago) link

I can see those locally and nationally who betrayed Jeremy and moved on to support Keir as a career move are now moving inch by inch to abandoning him too. We need people with principles to save our country.
