By winning a general election majority the people put Starmer in No 10 and they should decide in 2029 whether or not he should stay put. Government is once again functioning after 14yrs. There is no need for endless political drama that the media and press crave #BackOffBurnham
Glad to go on Politics East Midlands this morning & stand up for our Prime Minister.
If you’re the silent majority that watches but doesn’t comment, & want calm over chaos, please choose RIGHT NOW to take action now & sign up to:

AND email your MP.
Do you think Laura Kuenssberg needs to set out a timetable for her departure from the BBC because she is not impartial and her political biased if of the charts?🤔
Repost after voting please.
Please retweet if you want our Freedom of Movement restored.
We were robbed of our right to live, work, study, and love in 30 countries by the worst abuses of democracy in modern British history.
@darrenpjones@nowayjomo Darren, I’m genuinely upset with all that’s happening with Andy. The thing that upsets me the most, is thinking of Keir feeling like everyone hates him & he’s done an awful job as PM! It’s simply not true. He is an exemplary PM & so many of us believe in him. Please let him know
Your reminder that Andrew Tate and his brother are facing multiple charges of rape and sex trafficking.
It’s like living in a fucking Brass Eye episode.
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
Message to 2024 Labour intake MPs:
Be bloody grateful Keir Starmer secured you a good job. Show your gratitude. Do a good job for your constituents who voted you in on his mandate. Which is being completed in record time.
Backstab at your peril.
Maureen, I think that's exactly the point.
Too much of the discussion has become about whether Keir Starmer is loved, rather than whether he is delivering. Politics is not a popularity contest. It is a responsibility.
He rebuilt Labour. He won the mandate. He inherited a difficult inheritance and is doing the hard work of government. That deserves a fair judgement, not a premature succession debate.

"He is not going to walk away"
Housing Secretary Steve Reed tells Sky's @SophyRidgeSky that Keir Starmer has made his position clear and he won't walk away from being prime minister
All this talk of Starmer "gracefully stepping down" etc . . .
Why should he?
So the rebels don't have to put their money where their mouth is?
So Burnham can hijack Starmer's hard unglamorous successful work without doing it??
This is what I don't like, and this is what makes me uneasy about what is happening, Burnham is in no position to "demand" anything of anyone, not least Starmer, nobody has elected him to do anything but be a MP, the arrogant entitlement is gross. These "allies" need to shut up.
