A reason this government seek to restrict jury trials is surely because they don't want people they've wrongly imprisoned to be acquitted. Starmer's is a toxic government in league with a murderous, apartheid, genocidal State. #StarmerOut #Gaza #Palestine #InvestigateStarmerCooper&Lammy

Starmer, Cooper & Lammy must face investigation for abusing the law to proscribe a non-violent protest group fighting for Palestinian freedom. A group whose members have been acquitted of the 'violent disorder' those three claimed they'd perpetrated. #ProscribeStarmer #ProscribeLabour #StarmerOut

"It is plain to see that the British public do not want their citizens to be scapegoated for this Labour government’s political aims, they do not want to be criminalised for supporting a people’s inalienable right to freedom, dignity, and self-determination."

I can’t wait for anyone arrested for being a part of Palestine Action or even supporting them to sue this lying corrupt Party into bankruptcy..

I will support any Go Fund Me that is beginning legal proceedings against the Labour Party.

These lot fucked up and I think they’re about to find out.

Starmer, Cooper & Lammy lied to fake up a case to proscribe Palestine Action. Many people were arrested, some spent time in prison, a few nearly died on hunger strike, their human rights violated. Shouldn't those three face prosecution? They shame our country.

"Declassified reported that MI5’s terrorism analysts had concluded that “the majority of direct action by Palestine Action would not be classified as terrorism." Govt ministers, including former home sec. Yvette Cooper, lied to the public in an attempt to manufacture consent for a draconian ban.”

The Westminster establishment cabal and the corporate media are desperately trying to control the narrative, but their claims that Keir Starmer is a "decent man" are reality-reversed nonsense

The rhetoric around Starmer's "decency" is not matched by the reality of his actions. Don't be fooled. Starmer is very far from being " a decent man." A ruthless authoritarian, yes. A genocide denier, certainly. A self-serving serial liar, without doubt. #StarmerOut

Nesrine Malik is probably the most intelligent and insightful columnist the Guardian has. I salute her. This latest article firmly excoriates the empty void that is Starmer and the unprincipled charlatans who follow him and his shallow creed.

Pretty much the conservative mindset, really.

Don't do anything unless there's an immediate payoff.

Don't extend plans or actions beyond your personal sphere, because nothing else matters.

Don't waste time on those less privileged than yourself.

Such a small, sad world they live in.

Absolutely so. He has no integrity because he operates without principles. Everything he does is transactional, with an eye firmly fixed on what's in it for him or the wider Labour right he is an integral part of.

And the other betrayals: WASPI women, sick and disabled people, trans folks. The list goes on.

He is pathologically incapable of being truthful or acting with integrity. And his track record of breaking promises was on display *long* before he became PM.

"Call Starmer’s decision shortsighted, stupid, unwise, but it cannot be described as uncalculated. Mandelson’s value to the party leadership simply mattered more than his associations with the world’s best-known child sex offender. And therefore must have mattered more than the victims." #StarmerOut
February 9, 2026 at 9:33 AM
"Which brings us to Keir Starmer. A prime minister who we are repeatedly told is a “decent man” who “actually does care” about victims and will be overcome with shame over this whole affair. Or simply, a useless politician who outsourced too much and has been let down."
February 9, 2026 at 9:32 AM
"In Mandelson’s appointment, despite private and public questioning, there is an echo of contempt for those outside the inner circle and insistence on the leadership’s prerogative to do as it pleases in the service of political agendas that really have nothing to do with integrity, but utility."
February 9, 2026 at 9:29 AM
Starmer and his orcs caught lying and cheating yet again. They're utterly and contemptibly corrupt.
Starmer - and his supporters - are in this up to their necks. The whole lot needs kicking out.
That £240m contract Palantir won after Peter Mandelson took Keir Starmer to visit them? Government asserts "there were robust processes in place to ensure that government contracts are awarded fairly and transparently" but the award notice says it was a "directed award", ie without any competition.

Starmer needs to acknowledge he didn’t win a huge mandate — the Tories collapsed, so Labour strolled in.
Corbyn actually lost with more votes.

What did McSweeney do next? Advise Labour into the lowest poll ratings in its history.

So spare us the tears over McSweeney’s resignation.

An anonymous Labour backbencher is quoted as saying: "Starmer will go down as the worst Labour PM in history." They're not wrong. #StarmerOut

I can't think of an example of Starmer acting decently. Over Gaza he's guilty of complicity in war crimes, over Mandelson he's guilty of complicity in, at least, misogyny. He's authoritarian, driving this country towards repression. He twists the law to harass supporters of Palestine. #StarmerOut
February 9, 2026 at 8:54 AM
I wish the tame journalists and apologists would stop broadcasting the canard that Starmer is a "decent man." He isn't. He's only decent selectively, when it suits. He turned his back on the murder of thousands of children in Gaza, continued to sell arms to the murderers, then chose Mandelson.

"We’re often told Starmer is a ‘decent’ man. But he chooses political convenience over doing right" & over basic morality, showing "contempt for women and girls, for the law, for the public. A continuum runs from Epstein to our political establishment" #StarmerOut

It's always somebody else's fault with Starmer: 'Mandelson lied to me' or 'Morgan advised me'. Starmer has to take responsibility for his own dreadful decisions, but he never does. Eff off Starmer, you're not wanted, you're useless and you're a disgrace. #Cowardice #DeadDuck #Millstone
