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.

Keir Starmer inherited a "morally bankrupt" Labour party, and then used it to kill tens of thousands of women and children.

Tony Blair touts the incredible "benefits" of merging digital ID with facial recognition and AI. 😳

"Facial recognition can now spot suspects in real time from live video... AI will go even further—spotting crime patterns, guiding patrols and streamlining decisions."

"This is where technology, like digital ID, becomes critical."

Just imagine this kind of technology in the hands of a government that arrests 12,000 people for social media posts annually. 😳

@xk_machine @SaulStaniforth Not quite. 'We are horrified by the footage' which will be seen by our voters so we have to pretend to be concerned. We don't actually give a flying fuck about Palestinian babies and we'll enthusiastically keep sending Israel more weapons in order to keep killing them.

@romelwilliams @Dialogue_NRA Johnson is a smug, arrogant piece of shit who sneers contemptuously at those who disagree with him.

[Chris Futcher 🇵🇸 @chrisfutch]

@OborneTweets 'Horrible to watch' Starmer being humiliated. Well, I will enjoy every excruciating moment.

[Chris Futcher 🇵🇸 @chrisfutch]

@JohnCleese This from someone partly responsible for 'What have the Romans ever done for us'. He is obviously more akin to Basil Fawlty than a serious commentator.

@DropSiteNews Really? European leaders still demonstrate slavish devotion to the genocidal, apartheid state.

[Chris Futcher 🇵🇸 @chrisfutch]

@laxerra @ejmalrai That he's lost.

[Alan MacLeod @AlanRMacLeod]

The BBC has spent nearly three years trying to cover up a genocide, and then they act shocked when nobody believes in them anymore.

[Chris Futcher 🇵🇸 @chrisfutch]

@johnmcdonnellMP You mean there will be fewer lies and less propaganda. The BBC and 'journalism' have long since parted company.

[Chris Futcher 🇵🇸 @chrisfutch]

@giggsy69 @SaulStaniforth Because the politicians and media are already owned by them. Look over there, it's a Russian tanker.

Palestinian prisoner Ayman al-Fakhouri has been released from Israeli prison today after 26 months behind bars without charge or trial, Quds News reported, sharing before-and-after images showing his severe physical deterioration in detention.

Israel’s widespread use of administrative detention allows Palestinians to be held indefinitely on secret evidence for renewable periods, without being told the accusations against them or facing trial. Palestinian and Israeli human rights groups, along with released detainees, have documented systematic torture, rape, starvation, beatings, and medical neglect across Israeli prisons since October 2023, conditions that have left many prisoners emaciated and that have killed scores in custody.

Al-Fakhouri’s gaunt appearance on release echoes that of other freed detainees, including journalist Ali al-Samoudi, who reportedly lost some 60 kilograms during his imprisonment.

@randomsapien0 @ggreenwald Yup, confirmed by your own words.

[Chris Futcher 🇵🇸 @chrisfutch]

@randomsapien0 @ggreenwald @nikitabier I cannot begin to imagine the ignorance and stupidity you have acquired by steadfastly refusing to use an iota of independent thought. Truly sidesplitting.

[Chris Futcher 🇵🇸 @chrisfutch]

@mycuriositycult @ForeverScept I understand your point. The fact is, we don't know (no pun intended) how don't knows are counted. The way the question is framed is intentional. Any answer could signal agreement with the principle, with any issues being over details.

[Chris Futcher 🇵🇸 @chrisfutch]

@mycuriositycult @ForeverScept 'Don't know' does not indicate disagreement. They will claim it as positive support but uncertainty about what age.
