🇬🇧 Starmer once raged that swapping prime ministers without a vote was "utter chaos."
Now he's handing the keys to whoever Labour picks next.
Back in 2022, after Liz Truss imploded, he demanded a general election again and again, insisting the public deserved a say rather than another leader installed by party insiders.
Today he resigned and will hand over to a successor chosen by exactly that process, no election in sight. Britain gets its seventh prime minister in a decade.

** An open letter to @AlboMP **
Dear Prime Minister Albanese,
Let’s get one thing clear: women are adult human females. You know it, I know it, you even said it in the lead up to the last election when asked “what is a woman” by Piers Morgan.
But we have a big problem.
I’m sure you have heard, last week, the Federal Court delivered its judgment in Giggle v Tickle, the “what is a woman” legal case that has been fighting in federal court for the past four years. To put it very simply, there are two sides to this case: women, adult human females, who want to ensure that woman is a single-sex category in law and women & girls have access to single sex spaces. The other side, which includes your human rights commission, insists that men who claim to be women are women in the eyes of the law. The full Federal Court sided with the man who claims to be a woman. Yes. A male won the “what is a woman” court case. Giggle v Tickle has turned Australia into an international laughing stock.
This decision is seismic. It means women cannot run women-only businesses for women. It confirms that the ordinary meaning of sex has been twisted beyond recognition. It means men can be women in law. The Australian Human Rights Commission, captured by ideology, has weaponised the sex discrimination act against women, the very demographic it was enacted to protect. They’ve even argued in court that men who claim to be women need pregnancy protections. They’ve pushed the view that sex is a spectrum, changeable, and that anyone objecting is the bigot. Is this something you agree with? Do you, Mr Prime Minister, think men need pregnancy protections in the law?
And there are real-world stakes here: Girls at school are holding their bladders all day, refusing to drink water, because boys who claim to be girls are in their bathrooms and they don’t want them there. Women prisoners are locked in cells with male sex offenders who simply “identify” as women. Female athletes are losing podiums, matches and safety. This isn’t inclusion - it’s the demise of women’s rights.
Prime Minister, some of your ministers say, “we need to protect trans rights”. With all due respect, sir, your government can protect so called trans rights without stripping rights from women and girls. Every other citizen manages to exist without demanding access to the opposite sex’s protected spaces. Why not try to get “trans rights” without destroying the rights of women and girls? Have you ever even tried?
The fact that Labor hasn’t even mentioned Giggle v Tickle and women’s rights - while Liberals, Nationals, and One Nation politicians speak out - tells us everything. This week has been silence from the Labor Party. No trans visibility day parades on this one. No pride posts. Why? What don’t you want Australians to know?
You boast about your 50 per cent women in cabinet. Good for you - you can accurately recognise what a woman is when it suits you. But the rest of us aren’t allowed to without fear of punishment. And can I ask, if you filled that cabinet with 50 per cent trans women, would you still call it equality between men and women? Think about that.
While the UK, the United States and even New Zealand are waking up, rolling back the nonsense and restoring sanity and realizing that gender ideology is a failed experiment, your government is turning Australia into the laughing stock of the world. “Giggle v Tickle” isn’t just a punchline overseas - it’s proof Australia is upside down.
I want to tell you something really important: If you will lie about something as obvious as men being women, we can assume you will look us in the eye and lie about everything.
Tell the truth. Fix the Sex Discrimination Act. Reinstate clear biological, accurate definitions of man and woman. Protect women, girls and single-sex spaces. Actually do something.
Because, at the moment, Mister Prime Minister, I’m doing your job for you.
@ErikVoorhees Happy birthday @AskVenice and thank you @ErikVoorhees and the team for building the private and uncensored AI platform that the world needed
$VVV at $12+, new ATH 📈
Cleared the launch zone, now in price discovery on real volume. @askvenice is breaking out.
Higher conviction than ever. Why I'm long, what changed, where this goes 👇🏻🧵
@jordanurbs Great post. I have a similar story to a lot of Bitcoiners. Bought bitcoin, added a few shitcoins, watched the shitcoins moon then tank, became a maxi. Watching Erik introduce Venice on WBD made me realize that there is a genuine use case for private AI.
A little econ 101 for the silly socialists.
The natural state of the economy is deflationary. As humans we innovate, we become more productive so everything ‘should’ get cheaper to produce.
Well it does, everything you see getting more expensive is getting cheaper to produce but the inflation of the money supply is causing prices to go up.
So what is the mechanics of this, the two primary ones are:
1. Governments keep running deficits because democracy rewards them for lying and spending.
2. Banks create money out of thin air through lending and the people closest to credit get it first. Asset prices pump and wealth shifts toward those who already have assets.
When things go up in price, say energy due to war, this is not inflation. Some politicians say it is, but they are lying or stupid. That’s a supply shock. Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon.
Inflation is good for the state, it wipes away their debt. The mechanics of inflation are good for the rich, because they have assets.
Inflation is terrible for everyone else - products get smaller, ingredients get worse and prices go up. It’s how companies manage inflation.
Inflation forces dependency policies so people can scrape by - minimum wage, energy caps, renters rights. They are demanded by the public.
But this the slow hollowing out of society, it is what breaks everything which is good. It puts pressure on a system which takes us from high trust to low trust.
Why do I make fun of @zackpolanski and the socialists? Because they will run this experiment on crack. The Green’s model as far as I can see is:
- Attack the productive class
- Reward the unproductive class
The problem with this is the rich will leave, the ambitious may leave and they will face the same question as both Labour and the Conservatives which is how do we pay for this? They will either have to raise taxes or borrow (print) more money, which accelerates the problem.
So we will get lower productivity, higher taxes, more borrowing and guess what, more inflation.
This is the exact mechanics which have destroyed every socialist state.
I get it, socialism sounds warm and fuzzy - nobody should go without, free stuff for everyone. But the end result is poverty and misery, as it has been every single time.
If you want jobs, good, medicine then you need a growing and prosperous economy which means unshackling the entrepreneurs.
There is no other option on the table. It is the only thing that has ever worked.
I haven’t voted in three elections. I will only vote if someone comes with a real economic plan which means a chainsaw to the state and driving growth.
@PrestonPysh Thank you for your service to the Bitcoin community, your country, and your family. You were always one of the best communicators in the Bitcoin space. I wish you nothing but happiness. I hope to see you return someday. You will be greatly missed.
"AI is trained on your data"... this is not the real risk. It's a red herring, manufactured as The Concern because who cares that much.
The real risk to you is not that tomorrow's model is trained on your data.
The real risk is that ten thousand employees, hackers, and governments can access all your most personal and proprietary conversations today and forever.
Privacy must be the default or humanity is seriously fucked.
