Starmer's vision quest

[AuroraSaab]

I like the way he says 'the local'. It's like when he said 'pebble dashed house'. There'll be somebody writing this stuff I guess. 'No, don't put modest house, Keir...put pebble dashed'. I'm tired of all these politicians photo ops. The Man/Woman of the People thing grates on me a bit, even though I know it's well meaning in a show-them-you're-normal sort of a way.

Keir's big hands are giving me Andre the Giant vibes though.

I'm not cynical like you.

He's secured my vote with his Christmas tweet.

Not everyone can pull off double denim.

Oh dear. The grown-ups have been fined by the Electoral Commission for hiding £800K of dodgy money from their hedge-fund manager and Israel lobbyist backers.

LOL.

Yes. Interesting timeline.

All of the offences occurred during Corbyn's leadership.

LOL. No shit. The grown-ups were quite busy during that time.

2015!

I listened to an extended interview with Angela Rayner recently. She was asked about shadow cabinet meetings during Corbyn era. She described them as "chaotic".

I'm suspect your remark is intended to convey the notion that Corbyn was undermined. I don't doubt that he was, as is every political leader everywhere. The difference being that he also managed to undermine himself very successfully, and his detractors were proved right.

Of course, you've posted this news item in the Starmer thread, which is about Starmer's leadership and bid to be PM.

Wrong thread, perhaps.

Huge hands of The Son Of A Toolmaker, ain't they? Bet he wields a mean chain-whip.

Lol, are they seriously using someone taking a picture of a computer screen for that?! Their Photoshop genius knows no bounds!

Ah, it's that monocular view again, whereby only one thing can be considered a 'problem', at a time, and problems involving Tories trump everything else.

It's in the Times. Proof that Labour and the Tories are one and the same.

No. It's about priorities.
