So I'm now on Twitter. Got a problem about that?

@LastBlairite Cry more, you ridiculous hysteric.

@matthewsyed What was "good" about him? He was an abomination.

[Richard Designator @RDesignator]

@Mcgoohanforever @mtracey How?

[Richard Designator @RDesignator]

@LordWaynflete @SamCKx No. He expelled the left. He's been shafted by the MPs who supported him, who are worried about losing their jobs due to his unpopularity with the electorate. Neither he nor they have any principles or decency. The electorate have now seen through him.

"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. ... Good riddance..."

[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.

@mtracey This post indicates that you don't accept the concept of "under-aged". Which explains your whole position on the issue.

@sister_darla @luke_winkie Isn't Anything is their masterpiece. Ecstasy and Wine sounds tinny.

[Richard Designator @RDesignator]

@sister_darla @luke_winkie no

[Richard Designator @RDesignator]

I have no sympathy for a nasty piece of work and a crap Prime Minister.

[Wokerati Marty @WokeratiMarty]

So Starmer feels "betrayed."

Good. His whole leadership was built on a betrayal of Jeremy Corbyn and the Labour membership.

Live by the sword, die by the sword.

All still suckling at the teat.

@PaulEmbery And very efficient it is too.

[Richard Designator @RDesignator]

@stryder444 @PaulEmbery There are far more now. 2020 was 6 years ago.

@BillyBob_____1 @JohnLeFevre What infrastructure? You have a third -world level of public transport.

[Chris Sutton @chris_sutton73]

I’d prefer the Groups to be decided on goal difference at the World Cup… the head to head results mean already Mexico and USA will finish top of their groups regardless of their final games… poorly thought out…

[Richard Designator @RDesignator]

@undisputed104 Nobody's laughing, because they're booing at the moronic hydration breaks.

[Richard Designator @RDesignator]

@jmaza86 Nah, just thinking doesn't make it so. You did not win two world wars.

[Richard Designator @RDesignator]

@theiaincameron A lame non-comparison, not up to your previous high standards.

[Richard Designator @RDesignator]

@georgegalloway Why didn't the Workers Party field a candidate in Makerfield?

[Richard Designator @RDesignator]

@SimonBrundish Fans from all over the world had an incredible time when the World Cup was held in Russia. But I bet you still think that country is an "angry, totalitarian hellscape".
