Does our media control who is in government, or do we, the people, who elected Sir Keir Starmer for a 5 year term, get to decide?
The media have been trying to remove him from power since day 1, to over the decision we made.

“Collection of Handwritten Letters from Children in Detention Center” sounds like an exhibit in the Holocaust Museum.
1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.
Hundreds of kids are still detained.
We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

I understand upset with Starmer & personally I see the appeal of the Greens. I can respect them. I still don’t think it’s the right time to change PM
I do think that Corbynites are stirring up trouble tho. Your Party- a party where the 2 leaders can’t agree on anything

Think it's worth pointing out here that the Tories seriously suggested Fartrage be appointed as US ambassador because of all his personal links to Trump including, I guess, that he was ALSO mentioned in the Epstein files (41 times).
Perhaps they should all resign too?

I’m with you. I’m glad McSweeny has gone 💯
But ousting Stamer now? Ok with who & how will that help?
It creates bigger mess & gives Reform & Tories endless ammunition
I think Starmer needs more time. The world is in too much turmoil,
& international relations too frayed to change leader now

ousting Starmer now just sets off the who;e merrygoround again, with another leader being openly attacked for not returning their library boosk on time, while a friend of King Donald the Mad and possibly Epstein too gets a free ride day after day.

But beware what comes after him.
