2 hours ago Tory MP Richard Holden posted this tweet👇🏼
I was the first person to reply to correct him - this was a Thatcher introduced law!
So he blocked me, hid all replies calling him out AND retweeted it himself🙄🙄🙄
This is disingenuous & hypocritical in the extreme. You worked against @Keir_Starmer plotting to get him removed when you were supposed to be on his team. You leaked constantly to the press & worked with others to remove him. So glad I never had you on a team I led. #Shame
This is a massive achievement. Well done James @jamesmurray_ldn . Well done Keir.
Lost in all the Burnham braying.
But things like this matter. A lot. 👏👏👏
Of all the useless idiots there have ever been in politics, I can't help thinking Burnham has unwittingly been one of the most useful and the most idiotic.
Look around the world. Imagine who's celebrating Keir Starmer's defenestration.
Not the good guys ffs. NOT the good guys.
So it’s the Big Burnham reveal today. This five seconds as an MP setting out his stall. Ushered in by hundreds of MPs scared they might lose their jobs in 3 years.
The result will almost definitely be losing their jobs within the next 12 months.
And I cant feel remotely sorry
I recently came across this thread written six years ago. A thread about Keir Starmer.
The facts shared by this gentleman, a respected philosophy professor, speak for themselves.
We are looking at a man who plays the long game.
He comes across as a rational, pragmatic, and incredibly focused politician who combines genuine intellectual depth with real work on the ground.
Most importantly for his political identity, this thread defends him against claims that he is an 'artificial' product of modern political marketing.
It shows just how much the media influenced and created a completely false narrative about Keir, painting him as an entirely worthless, faceless man.
On the contrary, he is shown as a stable figure driven by a deeply rooted pragmatism, someone whose political convictions and character were shaped long ago, through real economic hardships and early activism.
It makes perfect sense to me now why Keir reacted the way he did in certain situations.
And it is even clearer now why he resigned.

Dear flagshaggers, what are you doing about these men? They’re not just the occasional foreigner in an alley. They’re your mates, colleagues, brothers, dads… One was a paramedic for fucks sake.
You only say “we’ve got enough here already” to avoid fucking doing anything.
Farage is going to be history soon. And I’m very pleased. Long time coming. I will hope it means a stint in jail but he’s got high up protection so guess that’s unlikely.
Things Keir Starmer taught me:
Politicians can have morals
When others demean themselves, leave them to it
When others go low, go higher
Service should be the only reason to want to be a PM
Being humble is more attractive than arrogance
Handle all circumstances with grace
Do you think @UKLabour and the country at large will come to regret the ousting of Starmer and with Burnham being his highly likely successor?
Please vote, comment, and retweet.
Does it make you feel sick to the stomach thinking of all the journalists who played a big part in bringing down Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer celebrating and slapping each other on the back for a job well done for their paymasters?🤔
Repost after voting please.
At last, Baroness Mone & husband to be sued for the millions they took while putting “NHS staff and patients in danger with substandard kit whilst lining their own pockets with taxpayers' money at a time of national crisis."

Do you think the people of the UK have lost one of the best Prime Ministers this country has ever had because of the influence of a spiteful social media billionaire?🤔
Repost after voting please.
Dear @Keir_Starmer. You've often been wrongly accused of U turns in the last couple of years. This time could you please make a definite U turn? Stand for PM. The pretender is an absolute cretin.
Regards
A very concerned country
@Hepworthclare@lindathomas_uk@Keir_Starmer@AndyBurnhamGM The messages & speeches from world leaders & E5 partners repeatedly highlighted the same themes: integrity, trust, partnership & reliability.
That level of international credibility matters in diplomacy, especially on Ukraine & European security.
Burnham can’t replicate that.
Some of you dislike Keir Starmer so much that you have convinced yourselves he has achieved absolutely nothing as Prime Minister. It is a pathetic and lazy cope, frankly.
NHS waiting lists have come down from their post election peak.
Net migration has fallen from its previous highs.
Immigration enforcement and returns have increased.
Planning reform has been pushed to speed up housebuilding.
Investment has been secured in clean energy, ports and battery projects.
Workers’ rights have been strengthened.
Skills, apprenticeships and technical education have been given more focus.
You do not have to like him. I do not. But some of you really do need to stop pretending he has achieved nothing, because the facts make perfectly clear that it simply is not true.
