I wish all Kiers Starmer a very [redacted]
Boris Johnson's slurs are one thing. Keir Starmer overseeing the introduction of a new Section 28 in schools for trans and non-binary people, supporting segregation and backing Wes Streeting as he drives kids to suicide after stripping them of their healthcare is on a whole other level.
i hate it when i mention how bigoted keir starmer is and someone is like 'huh? are you forgetting that boris johnson called gay men bum boys?!'.
no. i haven't forgotten that. that's nothing compared to the shit keir starmer has done.

We're gonna need a truth and reconciliation commission and Nuremberg style trials to reckon with all of this evil, and any Dem candidate for office who shies away from a full reckoning in the name of "moving forward as a nation" can get well and truly fucked
I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.
She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.
