Keir Starmer Has Killed the UK Labour Party

For Gods Sake Ignore Opinion Polls

Ignore every opinion poll not three months out from an election and you will instantly know more about politics or who will win the next election. Opinion pollsters are businesses that cannot say the poll is the same for three years straight, no one would buy it, they have to provide intrigue every day and suit clickable narratives, like a right wing populist is surging in the polls etc. Same for news media who are additionally more likely to pay for polls that suit their agenda, and mid term polls are only ever against the incumbent government anyway. IGNORE THEM.

He and his treasurer have managed to take on the holy sacrament of actual fair economic reform, that has destroyed and terrified Labor for so many years and won.

A 68 year old man in Sydney has been charge with wearing a swastika t-shirt, in front of the Royal Commission into Antisemitism. In the past this would have been a Neo-Nazi, but this seems to have (unconfirmed but more likely) been a Palestinian supporter. Given the supporters of Israel are going to great extremes to re-define this once sacrosanct word to mean any criticism of Israeli policies, military action, Zionism and even Benjamin Netanyahu - have they now destroyed the word and made it a badge of honour?

Keir Starmer Has Killed the UK Labour Party

After the atrocious but expected Labour performance in the recent council elections, laid bare even the Labour voter's disdain for this feckless, spineless, judgementaly challenged faux Tory Blairite Zionist, he is toast. But as he and his gang expelled all true Labour people from the party, he's left us with no one not like him to replace him.
