I'm waiting for three and a half years of Streeting lying to us so I can compare it to the eighteen months of Starmer lying to us.

"We are in control. Totally. No doubt about it. This is a government of vision and purpose and our vision and purpose is ... er, um, wait a minute. I'll ask Morgan."

"We're not going to raise income tax. We are going to raise income tax now. No, we're not going to raise income tax."

The government is fully in control.

Starmer was never meant to be PM. He was merely the 'stop Corbyn' placeman. The PM was always supposed to be Streeting. It didn't work out that way and Starmer became PM by default. Now he won't let go and the country is stuck with him. #StarmerOut

Starmer was never meant to be Labour’s prime minister – his leadership was doomed from the start | Neal Lawson
His alliance with the party’s anti-Corbyn faction was a shotgun marriage that totally lacked vision. Now Labour is paying the price, says Neal Lawson of the cross-party campaign organisation Compass

"It's not just Starmer who is fighting for his political life. It may also be the Labour party itself. both of the old parties that have dominated British politics for the past century are now disintegrating irreversibly."

Bye Labour, bye Tories. Don't come back.

I'd be very happy to see Starmer go.
But as with Johnson, I want rid of those manipulating the puppet behind the scenes. And rid of the party & their policies & ideologies.
But we must be careful what we wish for, theres no obvious better replacement so as with Johnson we could end up worse off.

Starmer is of course owned by Israel, bought and paid for. He'll do anything they tell him to. Deny a genocide? Yes sir, right away, sir, anything you say, sir. He isn't fit to be in government. #StarmerOut

"Violent Maccabi fans were organised fighters linked to Israel's IDF, UK police found."

Starmer, who covered for the IDFs #Gaza genocide, didn't want anyone to know that. He chose to smear the police instead. He isn't fit to be in government. #StarmerOut

The decision to ban Maccabi fans was based on "intelligence and professional judgement," according to the police.

But Starmer chose to milk the situation, calling it "anti-semitic." He's a liar. He and his right-wing backers used the same smears to get rid of Corbyn.

The same is also happening in the #UK.

The rich are getting richer, everyone else is getting squeezed, foodbank use is increasing yearly.

Our system is broken too, but the establishment parties of #Labour, #Tories & #Reform will not do anything to help.

They don't care, they're not on our side.
The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.
