Overturn this. 🧏‍♂️ #USABEL

If Keir Starmer does resign, history will look back on his reign and scratch its head as to why the hell he was so hated.

On paper, he's probably delivered more to working British people in such a short time than any PM for decades.

After inheriting an absolute mess: NHS waiting lists fallen. Worker's rights improved. Rail operators nationalised. Improved relations with EU and improved UK's global reputation. Removed non-dom tax status. Halved childcare costs. Boosted state pensions. Lowest homicide rate in 50 years. Lifted 550k children out of poverty. Immigration vastly reduced.

We are in the age of billionaire funded misinformation, whose sole purpose is to topple democratically elected leaders, and insert leadership that favours the wealthy elites over the working people. Looks like the game plan is working...

The US has circulated its version of the Memo of Understanding with Iran to G7 leaders in France. It’s as bad if not worse than expected.
— The moment it’s signed (Friday) sanctions on the export of Iran oil are lifted. So the regime can start replenishing its coffers immediately.
— The US commits to doing nothing to undermine or destabilise the Iranian regime (it started the war to remove it).
— The US specifically commits to ending its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz but Iran does not commit specifically to returning the Strait to toll/fee free transit exactly as before the war, with no Iranian control/regulation whatsoever .
— All sanctions against Iran will be dropped should phase two negotiations go well. And America will withdraw its forces from the region.
— The US ‘undertakes’ to work with Iran and Gulf allies to create a $300 billion reconstruction package for Iran. So America will now become a partner with the tyrants of Tehran, who Trump only recently wanted to overthrow, in rebuilding their economy.
— All matters related to Iran’s nuclear capabilities are kicked into the ‘final agreement’ in 60 days time (or longer if necessary).
— No mention of Iran’s ballistic missile capabilities or its financing of terrorist proxies.
And that’s just about it. When Trump insisted the war would only end with ‘unconditional surrender’ it never crossed my mind he meant his own.

@__jacklawrence I'm stunned by how short our fanbases memory is. Nearly didn't have a club 3-4 years ago and COSU saved but it's an affront that they're trying to make money on **the pub they bought for fans** in the summer. Fking ridiculous.

Republicans: Retard! You're gay! Fuck you! Fuck them! Fucking cat ladies! Fuck woke! Fucking ugly feminists! Fuck your feelings!

Democrat: Stephen Miller is fucking ugly.

Republicans: OMG WHERE ARE MY SMELLING SALTS I HAVE BEEN OFFENDED OH LOOK AT MY DELICATE LITTLE HEART!

@CustardSplatPod The most ChatGPT post I’ve ever read

@adammocklerr @realDailyWire Such hypocrites - and snowflake babies!

[Pabby Pig @PabloOlbap32]

@BrickieChaz @euniesufc I think proven at Premier League level feels unlikely for us Charles. Just a hunch.

[Pabby Pig @PabloOlbap32]

@ForeverSouthend I mean this with respect but, as you’ve said yourself, you’re younger than a few of us. We need to get out of the national league and I (along with others) don’t think Maher is the man to do it. He leaves with the FA Trophy to point to for another job in football.

[solman @ChatzSol]

@OfficialVizeh Glad everyone is being normal about this

[Pabby Pig @PabloOlbap32]

@CJPhillips1982 AIncredibly sad to see him go but it’s the right decision. I wish he were more successful but he wasn’t. COSU are showing they are ambitious and let’s give the guys that saved our club the faith in that. Maher would be a legend of a club that doesn’t exist without them.

[Pabby Pig @PabloOlbap32]

@RochdaleAFCcom We literally do not give a single fuck about Rochdale. Why are you constantly replying to Southend posts and threads? Genuine question. It's a really weird obsession from your side.

[Pabby Pig @PabloOlbap32]

@MrTCHarris @lukeakehurst @DavidTaylor85 Because look at the popularity trajectory of basically every PM except Truss since 2010

[Epic Gobshite @epic_gobshite]

Oh, spare us the sanctimonious drivel, Andy. Ten years ago you flounced out of Westminster because the 'system' wasn't working for you personally after failing upwards for 16 years. Now, after using Greater Manchester as your personal branding exercise - racking up debt, rebadging buses, and claiming credit for growth that predates you - you're bored of the Mayor gig and want back in Parliament for your own opportunistic gains. 'Deeply care about Makerfield'? You couldn't even be bothered to stand there (or anywhere) last time. This is just the latest chapter in your serial loser saga: you got absolutely trounced in not one but two Labour leadership contests, first to Ed Miliband, then to Jeremy Corbyn, before sulking off to Manchester to play regional 'king'. Now you're back chasing the top job again, positioning yourself as the saviour while the North crumbles under the very government you helped enable. The people who actually voted for you as Mayor get their mid-term rug pulled for your ego trip, costing taxpayers another expensive election. The 'man of the people' routine is ancient history, especially after Labour's national meltdown. This reeks of desperation, not principle. Good luck explaining to voters why the 'change we brought to Greater Manchester' requires you abandoning it halfway through for another shot at the prize you already proved you can't win.

[Pabby Pig @PabloOlbap32]

@AngryOwl1895 @CustardSplatPod Haha, I agree if you were a neutral. But the guy that replied was a Southend fan and most of us are still having flashbacks.

[Pabby Pig @PabloOlbap32]

@TheMoronHunter1 @clarkliam04 They’ve had one full season in charge and you seem to think they’re responsible for the entire footballing side of things. I think we need to change manager and have patience under that new manager to build something that can take us up.

[Pabby Pig @PabloOlbap32]

@TheMoronHunter1 @clarkliam04 How quickly people forget. Give them time to get things right, build the foundations and then let the success come from that.

[Pabby Pig @PabloOlbap32]

@travis_gc @blueroomsufc @SUFCOfficial Oh completely agreed. We played a team that are a one trick pony and let you do your trick all night. Yeah, Maher out. Best of luck against Dale.

[Pabby Pig @PabloOlbap32]

@TheMoronHunter1 @clarkliam04 Nah. These people saved our club, we can’t now have an expectation they pump in unlimited riches to get us up. We need to sustainably build success and we won’t do that right now with Maher.

[Pabby Pig @PabloOlbap32]

@travis_gc @blueroomsufc @SUFCOfficial Both things are true. The ref was genuinely the worst I’ve seen in years. Also, if we had a decent ref and played on for another 4 hours, we still wouldn’t have scored.
