"we'll change the things that need changing and that's all we'll change": the paSUKification of post-brexit politics 2021

thats right

I have spotted RM in Cambridge four times, he is always cycling around the centre, not in the last year though of course.

My granny knows him from way back & is the only person I’ve ever known to have dealings w him and not hate him - but even then the upshot of her anecdotes is “he’s a prick”

the radio station office had a clipping of a younger female presenter having dinner with him in a restaurant for a feature, and I thought it was a bit odd to send her on what looked like a date with a convicted stalker and print the photo in the same newspaper that had covered the case two years before

I saw him on an S5 bus from Oxford to Bicester once, in a clear "don't notice me, but do notice me" mood…

That’s his whole thing, he is very “don’t you know who I am” while also being a prick about being recognised I think

& like... he’s barely even a celebrity and has achieved literally nothing. Who is he

posh white man with connections

oh wait i thought this still david mitchell i don't know this guy

He’s basically nobody, just a random creep, but also you’re not wrong (although I think he was relatively unposh for a Cambridge student back then)

Thank you domcum for your opposition.

If only they'd put this much planning into the pandemic preparation:

what a disappointing poll, such blatant Labour Right sympathy and bias I can't take it seriously

consistent

but maybe just quit with the bland congratulations, because everyone itk knows you are only slightly more a Gooner as Cameron was a fookin' Villan ffs you embarrassing prick

Oh have they won? Ok

I'm a REAL Arsenal fan, not a pretend one. That's why I have to mention it in every post

Nah, he’s actually a real Arse fan but the MP with the Emirates in his constituency is just so much better at being a football fan.

I'd love to see them going head to head in an Arsenal pub quiz. I bet Jez would skin the fucker on club history knowledge.

Next thing Keith will be tweeting how football is all about taking part.

It would be funny if he tweeted that at the Citteh fans but funny is not in his wheelhouse, is it?

REAL football fans don't melt when a local rival wins something. I never forgave Hudds Town fan David Peace for saying something like "perhaps a draw would be a fair result" when asked about who he fancied in the upcoming Hudds vs Vile Revenant of the North L66ds cunts game when he was plugging his Clough book!

RT if you knew Keir Starmer was a “As an Arsenal fan.”

lol he's like a Barry Sheerman type pol club fan, who once made a show of turning up at a pub when Town were playing Sheff Wed in the playoffs. And he was so was so fucking clueless he jumped up and cheered when Sheff Wed scored. Everyone in the pub was laughing and jeering at him and he stormed out.

lol yeah Roger Nouveau for real!

Peace isn't a dirty Leeds fan?

Kieith has plenty form for warmly congratulating what are supposed to be his bitter rivals lol

no Peace is a Hudds Town fan to the core, he was at a Hudds vs Leeds friendly for the first completely pointless game Clough was in charge with his dad as a kid. That's what made his diplomatic prevarication all the more annoying!

This is a terribly sad story in @thesundaytimes. By admitting more kids from state schools, Oxbridge are forcing the privately educated offspring of the super wealthy to go to Ivy league colleges in the US. Something must be done to stop this! https://t.co/MB3Z8rzL6S

"a terribly sad story"

needed to check if the LSE social science prof is being ironic, can't always tell these days!!

My irony detector definitely registered significant activity.

terrible that some of these rich brats will have to join horribly American exclusive clubs that might not even approve of fucking pig's heads and burning $100 notes in front of homeless people

Clearly these are not Britain's brightest

Zarah Sultana, a REAL football fan.

Trinity in dublin has long been famous for being both an elite university for irish students and a dumping ground for rich english thickos

Ditto St Andrews.

oh really that makes sense

I visited Batley and Spen to hear from local people about the issues that matter to them.

Labour is making a difference to communities like this one right across our country.

I urge everyone to #VoteLabour and for our great candidate @kimleadbeater pic.twitter.com/FK2Mc93pC4

Hello I'm a former shadow chancellor and recent recipient of a frontal lobotomy and a demotion from Kieth. I've got absolutely nothing to offer you.. just want have a wee chat about the Labour party because the enthusiasm to talk about the party in Batley is off fucking the charts, I lied to myself after the 36th consecutive door was slammed in my face.

it could be worse I suppose. George Galloway worse!

I suppose saying "we are listening" is a good enough substitute for offering nothing in Kieth's mind.

That video is very very haunted

inspirational stuff, but if I had to put a grand on the by-election result it wouldn't be on Labour.

Fuck is this?

Absolutely farcical stuff from the DFT, slash spending by £300mln, increase revenue by £1bln and pick a line at random and make it driverless. How could the mayor agree to this fantasy? https://t.co/6kabGP38Ja

Weasel-wording scum

I see some of the Left posters are attacking Khan's negotiating approach, not sure if he could have done better but it doesn't compare very favourably with Manchester. And he is a wanker!

He has just signed it off without any fuss. Why has he been elected?

the enigma of Kieth Starmzy!

of course Khan says he fought this very hard etc and now reluctantly blah blah... hard to imagine tbh

You cannot make a London underground line driverless and slash spending at the same time

without being a transport eggspurt this sounds like a fucking recipe for disaster

I bet Khan privately complains about Burnham, because you aren't supposed to do anything popular or good as mayor because they'll all start expecting the same ffs

I would have though Khan almost losing to that clown Shaun Bailey has pretty much scuppered his hopes of becoming leader once Starmer kills himself.
