It will be a very short list.

They don't seem impressed.

I don't see a conflict.

He said "I repeated".

He didn't say "they said".

He isn't misconstruing their words at all.

What they are really annoyed about is that they got a load of shît from local Muslims about Starmer's visit and they are desperately trying to dig themselves out of a hole. The locally annoyed Muslims have probably been reading Adam's posts about Starmer saying the Israelis had the right to starve and freeze Gazans to death (which, intelligent readers* realise was a single confusion for all the reasons I gave upthread).

Ironically, the only thing Starmer said that is not exactly what Muslims are calling for is the release of the hostages.

*not Adam, obvs.

Adam cannot put himself in the place of a party leader, and aspirant PM, who has to make balanced decisions.

This is what makes Adam's pronouncements so funny.

While refusing to condemn blatant war crimes.

Very poor for a human rights lawyer.

balanced decisions

I don’t think it is possible to balance thousands of innocent lives against the fear of right wing media rejection, but I have no doubt Starmer will continue to try.

He isn't a human rights lawyer.

He's the next PM.

That was his job at one point. He should know a war crime when he sees it. He just hasn't got the guts to say so, like everyone else at Westminster.

He's a KC, right?

Also being (next) PM doesn't make it any better.
