FFS Keir. Grow a spine. The people you are trying to appease will never vote for you so this is all a waste of time and political capital.
Asked by the BBC how he would feel if "your daughter was having to walk past one of these [asylum] hotels every day?" Keir Starmer replies that "I completely get it".
"I understand why people want the hotels closed. I want them closed".

Anyone, and I do mean anyone, who calls for leaving the ECHR is doing so because they want to deny Human Rights to as many people are possible and should be immediately ignored and shunned. And, because I am a rational person, that includes Labour MPs.
Graham Stringer, the MP for Blackley and Middleton South, urged Sir Keir Starmer to leave the European Convention on Human Rights.

BREAKING: Vladimir Putin is pushing to meet Zelensky in Moscow and Zelensky has obviously turned this down.
Why would Zelensky meet Putin in the country that wants him killed?
This is all a big joke to Putin. He has no plans on stopping. He has no plans for peace.

Oh bless him. He is so fucking mad. Raping kids is absolutely fine but thinking about touching a statue deserves 10 years, When is a single member of the press going to grow a spine and challenge this madness ?

The “appalling scenes in Gaza” have been enabled by the arms, surveillance & diplomatic cover Keir Starmer’s Labour government have provided to a genocidal apartheid state.
He still refuses to call it a genocide because he is complicit in it.

‘They’re skin and bones’: doctors in Gaza warn babies at risk of death from lack of formula
‘They’re skin and bones’: doctors in Gaza warn babies at risk of death from lack of formula
Doctors say Israel is blocking deliveries of formula urgently needed as mothers are either dead or too malnourished to feed their babies
Doctors in Gaza have warned that hundreds of babies are at risk of death amid a critical shortage of baby milk, as Israel continues to restrict the humanitarian aid that can enter the beleaguered strip.
Dr Ahmad al-Farra, the head of paediatrics at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis, said his ward had only about a week’s worth of infant formula remaining. The doctor has already run out of specialised formula meant for premature babies and is forced to use regular formula, rationing it between the infants under his care. Continue reading...

The people who lost children and other loved ones in the Texas floods are owed honest answers from officials. They should be told why flash flood warnings issued hours earlier were not conveyed to people in the path of the water. They don’t need more prayers from politicians. They need answers.

Today's performative clampdown on migrants will gut our care homes of desperately needed staff.
We are *already* short of over 150k carers.
Banning foreign care workers will only exacerbate this - increasing suffering of society's most vulnerable members & pressures on the NHS.
It's madness.

I'm no lawyer, but it seems like discussing war plans in Signal outside a SCIF is maybe just a little bit worse than using a private server to send emails that weren't even marked as classified. But what do I know.

When did the other eight billion of us decide to let him do it?
Because, either by supporting him or not being vociferous enough in challenging and opposing him (& his like)… that’s what we’ve done. 🤷♂️

I have never been an anti-Semite. But the actions of the Israeli Govt are unforgivable. It has nothing to do with their religion and everything to do with their inhumanity.
People in Gaza haven't been earning money for 17 months. At the same time most have lost everything. That's why 90% of people in the strip rely on food aid. And now Israel has blocked the entry of everything going into Gaza.
