@antepostbet@JayLfc94 The revisionism is crazy. I’m in shock TT done that GS would have but I thought TT was different. Giving the 🐐 time and space to bring his country back into it. The lack of football iq was scary from the players to allow them so much space around the box that’s not TT fault!
@Spalders Such sad sad news the guy was an absolute legend and looked from the outside to love his life. The lives he has influenced is incredible. May his soul rest in peace
Reaffirms my belief that some folk don’t actually like football, they just enjoy having something to moan about
Toys thrown out of the pram during a title race, then that shiny trophy barely pacified them long enough that they are losing it again 3 days into the transfer window
Some Arsenal fans are doing that weird thing again where they are losing their heads that we might not sign a guy that they had never heard of 6 weeks ago…
@SkySportsF1 There is no chance they can allow that lap to stand. His team mate in front of him abandoned his lap there was a car in the wall. You allow that you set a dangerous precedent in the future.
@politixintheuk The fucking audacity. Most people when they go to vote vote for the party not someone who usually gives no fuck about their constituents. Ask 80% of people that vote and I assure you for the general election they vote for the party they want in
This is the bit where all the Downing Street staffers come out and tell us all the awful things Starmer did, affairs with interns, bullying and harassment, regular drunkenness, corruption… No? Anyone? No? Right, so we just got rid of the most decent PM in our lifetime.
Hounded out by right-wing media.
He lost his brother months into his leadership and still carried on with grace.
A shameful moment in political history
Open letter to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer
Dear Prime Minister,
I am writing as a Labour supporter who is deeply concerned by the growing pressure surrounding your leadership, but also as someone who has developed a genuine admiration for the way you conduct yourself.
What I respect most about you is your seriousness.
You are not a political showman. You do not rely on constant drama, easy slogans or theatrical promises. You come across as disciplined, intelligent, decent and deeply conscious of the responsibility that comes with leading the country.
In an age when politics is increasingly dominated by noise, outrage and personality cults, your calmness is a strength.
Your resilience is also admirable. You have faced relentless criticism, personal attacks and an often hostile media environment, yet you have continued to behave with dignity. You rarely lash out. You do not appear consumed by ego. You keep returning to the work.
That matters to me.
Britain has already endured years of political chaos, revolving-door prime ministers and governments more interested in internal warfare than governing. The country does not need another leadership contest. It needs stability, seriousness and delivery.
You were elected with a mandate to govern. You inherited damaged public services, weak growth, overcrowded prisons, an NHS under enormous pressure and public trust worn down by fourteen years of Conservative government. None of that can be repaired overnight.
I hope you will remain Prime Minister and continue the work until the next general election in 2029.
Labour MPs should understand that removing you now could trigger weeks of division, uncertainty and damaging promises made during a leadership contest. The press would feed on the chaos, financial markets could react, and Nigel Farage and Reform would be handed exactly the political instability they want.
This is not the time for Labour to imitate the Conservative Party.
I also believe your personality is better suited to this difficult period than many people appreciate. You are methodical rather than impulsive, measured rather than reckless, and focused on governing rather than performing.
Those qualities may not always generate exciting headlines, but they are the qualities a serious Prime Minister needs.
Leadership is not only about popularity. It is about character.
It is about remaining calm when others panic, showing discipline when others chase attention, and continuing the difficult work when the noise becomes unbearable.
Please hold the line.
Many Labour supporters still believe in your integrity, your determination and your sense of duty. Britain needs less political theatre and more delivery, and you deserve the opportunity to complete the job the country elected Labour and you to do.
Yours sincerely,
Thomas Soede
