These are the six tests Keir Starmer once said a Brexit deal must fulfil. He now supports a Brexit that fulfils none of them.

I hate to pull the immigrant card, but as an immigrant, it feels awful when elected MPs say I ‘need to go home’ and propose stripping me and all other immigrants of all our legal rights to live here. No, anywhere immigrants move is their home. The UK is my home.

Palestinians don't matter?
Imagine the outcry if the bodies of Israeli hostages had signs of torture, executions & handcuffing. It would be on the front page of every newspaper & leading every news bulletin
But its Palestinian bodies handed over by Israel that have these signs. So our media doesn't care

In the UK, we have a government who will complain about peaceful protests taking up valuable police resources while simultaneously complaining that the police shouldn't ban far right football hooligans with a history of violence and disruption from attending a match.

Yeah, if Keir Starmer enables violence by hooligans, including attacks on local property or people, that'll do wonders for his popularity.

They're not being banned from Aston Villa because they're Jewish.
They're being banned to avoid a race war on the streets of Birmingham!

one of the things i hate about starmer is that he just doesn’t know when to shut the fuck up
the prime minister shouldn’t be commenting on this just like he shouldn’t be commenting on graham linehan. he’s forever giving his a right wing leg-humping opinion when he jus shouldn’t say anything at all
