If given the time of day. Meanwhile, on Mail online, you have to scroll halfway down the page to even be aware it was happening and the headline is more about him being heckled than the actual speech.

Doing my level best to stay out of this thread but couldn't let the huge "Patrie Famille Travail" energy from Starmer today pass by without a little snark.

As a sweetener to that, she also said that Vic Reeves is the nicest person she has ever met. Well why didn't she marry HIM then? /has a huff on behalf of Geoff |

Was just seeing the "Reality Check" posts on the BBC live feed for Starmer's speech. Bizarre to see them and it not be "no, this is just flat out wrong".
Who knew that it was possible for a politician to open their mouth without lying?

What the fuck was that weird analogy about Scottish and Welsh women giving blood and not specifying that it should be withheld from English patients meant to serve? Does he genuinely believe that pro-indy supporters and/or SNP voters in Scotland are ethnic nationalists? Lol Jesus Christ.

He was literally briefing "I'll be untrustworthy and lie, if it means I can win elections" yesterday.
“Keir is a guy that you literally would trust with your house, your kids and everything else,” says deputy Labour leader Angela Rayner

The Kiethlet/Stamphlet said that Labour should be “proudly patriotic” but “reject the divisiveness of nationalism”. Translation: British Nationalism good, Scottish Nationalism bad. |

It’s hard to criticise his speech much when our pm was quoting Kermit the frog to the UN last week.

What Kier Starmer needs is a name-chant, similar to "Oh, Jeremy Corbyn" to the tune of Seven Nation Army.
Maybe "Kierstarmer" to the tune of Snow's 'Informer'?

For a clever guy, it's quite impressive. |

Labour gave up on Scotland a long time ago but they really do want to double down on making sure they’ll never get it back

As per usual, Tory’s more interested in redefining the problem than fixing it. Don't say 'panic' amid fuel crisis, Cabinet Office warns councils www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-58740507
the Cabinet Office warns against using the terms "panic", "panic buying" and "stockpiling".
Instead it recommends using phrases like "filling up earlier than usual" or "changed patterns in demand".And we must protect the freedoms Framing people buying excess fuel as 'taking away from those who need it/ the NHS etc.' is likely to lead to them feeling like their freedom has been threatened, |

This article seems kinda related to recent discussions on FPTP/PR systems: www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-58718307Not sure how Germany's system works, but it seems like it should be possible to devise a mix of the two, or a compromise between them. |

I'm having to take the boy out on the bus to school today because basically, the next time we take the car out there's got to be some fuel somewhere to put in it or we'll be pushing it home.
Here's me thinking by 2021 that our cars would fly.

I filled up last night, straight in and out, no queues, no fighting, nothing. It was all a bit anti-climatic.

So that's why we have a shortage of HGV drivers! They're all in the nick!
Alos nothing to do with Brexit, we don't need those forins over here and besides they have a shortage of drivers too so as a temporary sticking plaster we'll grant visas to the apparently non existant foreign drivers!

When the said they take back control and make Britain great they obviously meant going back in time to the Victorian era. I'm guessing Workhouses are up next. |

Background checks didn't seem to weed out that obvious Nazi. There seems to be something fundamentally at fault with recruitment.
Not helped by having people like Dick in charge of things, she should have been sacked or forced to resign after De Menezes.
I don't think ACAB but a fucking lot of them seem to be.
