@TheLabourMark You think! He is as two faced as Starmer, probably more so.

This is appallingly insensitive.

Well, there goes Keir Starmer.

It’s never been clear exactly what he stood for, except for a fixation on cracking down on the protest rights he used to defend when he was a lawyer.

We’re not sure what’s coming next – but we’ll be there to hold the government to account.

@PolitlcsUK I feel like being sick.

[Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis]

Keir Starmer was not merely a disappointment. He is a mendacious figure of ethical decrepitude, a man who won the Labour Party leadership based on promises that he jettisoned five seconds after winning - a Labour leader who dared banish from the Labour Party not only his predecessor but also remarkable human beings like director Ken Loach - the gentleman who has taken the historic Labour Party and transformed it into a vessel for the very oligarchy it was elected to restrain.

Consider the litany of Starmer’s moral and logical failures. He promised a 'different Britain', yet his actions were a masterclass in Tory-lite politics—using the same maxed-out credit card analogies that once served the austerity brigades to justify his own failure of vision. He promised a human rights lawyer’s approach but he embraced a racist-lite version of Farage.

On Europe, Starmer promised Brexiteers that Brexit is Brexit yet stood before those who yearn to rejoin the European Union, winked at them to make them feel that Britain would gradually reconnect, even rejoin, with the EU while offering nothing of substance. This is not leadership; it is a fraud.

And then there's the manner in which Starmer and his government rushed to offer Israel unequivocal support in pursuing its genocide in Gaza, sacrificing precious political and civil liberties in the UK by imprisoning grandmothers, priests and peaceful activists who dared support Palestine Action, an organisation that Starmer and his minions proscribed as terrorists for practising the usual activist tactics of trespassing to spray paint military planes that had demonstrably aided in the genocide. To add insult to injury, Starmer performed the diplomatic pantomime of recognising a Palestinian state, in a manner that ensured it would never happen.

But above all else, this is a government that has learned nothing from the post-2008 era. Starmer and his Chancellor are playing the same tired austerity game while enabling and empowering the Finance Curse perpetrated by the City of London, throwing in forgood measure cuts in international aid to fund a military spending trickle under the guise of a "Strategic Defence Review" . It is the same old doctrine: austerity for the masses, socialism for the financiers and the arms dealers.

History will remember Mr Starmer as a man without conviction, a Prime Minister who offers not a shred of honesty, but merely the cruel illusion of change. He is ethically decrepit because he had chosen, consciously, to abandon principle for power. And for that, history will indict him. Good riddance, I say.

And in two years has made Labour unelectable! Brilliant job.

[Rachel Reeves @RachelReevesMP]

From taking our party from the worst defeat in modern history, @Keir_Starmer turned it around and delivered a landslide majority just four years later.

[Beardy @Beardaly]

You liar. It was not the worst defeat in history. It was not good but considering you and Labour Together sabotaged JC he did a remarkable job.

The Guga hunt is Scotland's shame - native seabird chicks being slaughtered in the name of tradition. Why are we allowing this massacre to go on?

[Beardy @Beardaly]

@AndyBurnhamGM @twcuddleston I actually bought up and tasted a little bit of sick reading this.

[Canary @TheCanaryUK]

Starmer fought back tears during his resignation speech which was full of hypocrisies that the Canary's Grace has highlighted

@FactualLiving 🤣🤣🤣🤣 What a joker. You are such a wag.

[Beardy @Beardaly]

@pete_tonkin He ditched the entire manifesto he was elected on; we were lied to. If it makes you feel better to ignore that fact and the reality of being gaslit, I understand. Covering up your embarrassment by ignoring the facts is totally understandable.

[CrémantCommunarde #NION💙🤍🩷 @0Calamity]

Lots of "I don't understand why people hate Starmer" posts on my timeline today.
This.
This is why people hate Starmer.
His unequivocal support for genocide.

[Andrew Feinstein @andrewfeinstein]

Keir Starmer was as mendacious & delusional in listing his achievements as he has been about everything since he ran for leader

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

Our country needs a bold change of direction. Starmer lost the confidence of the country because of his abject failure to challenge the power and wealth of an establishment which has taken for themselves while leaving the vast majority in a cost of living crisis. (1/5)

[Beardy @Beardaly]

@paulmasonnews There should be no coronation. Burnham must lay out is manifesto and be answerable to the public.

[Beardy @Beardaly]

@Hepworthclare I'm sorry, he is not a decent man. He and his government are complicit in genocide. That alone strips away any vestige of decency.
