So This Is What Leadership Looks Like Kier!

[mickd1961]

What a fiasco with the Dianne Abbott affair, this bloke couldn’t run a bath let alone the country!

What a duplicitous little worm he is by the looks of this.

He accused Sunak of running to an election to avoid having to deal with a certain issue earlier this week, I can’t remember if that was about the blood scandal or Rhawanda but he was all over Sunak about it.

Here we are today with Dianne Abbott apparently not being chosen as Labour candidate for Hackney after 37 years of loyal service ( whether you like her or not ) and today this smarmy little worm was obfuscating when questioned.

Labour have purposely delayed making a final decision on Abbott, kicking the decision into the long grass so they could “overlook” her once an election was called.

Now he’s backpedaling because the Corbyn brigade are going nuts about it.

FFS man, show some balls and deselect her and to Hell with the zealots.

He needs to show far more mettle than this.

Abbott will win that seat as an independent so he might as well swallow the loss, it’s not like it’ll make any difference to the result!

Very poor show by Sir Fence Sitter today.

Agree 100% Mick

This election is Starmers to lose? Surely that can’t happen.. could it? Agree with everything you say Mick and I really hope that Fenstein (or whatever his name) who as independent is running in the same constituency as Kier could potentially win. If that happens, i’m not sure Kier can be PM? Someone please confirm. As each day goes, I don’t want this labour getting in. For so long they’ve attacked the tories and thinking they’ve got all the answers. Reality is, they don’t. We so need another party to step up.. even if their main pledge was to rejoin EU.. surely they’d be in?

Angela Rayner deputy leader filmed yesterday sitting in a living room with all male muslim men ,saying we will not only reconise Palestine but also help to rebuild it .
The Labour party used to be for the working man and his family.

I would describe Starmer as a ‘definite maybe.’ I’m afraid that this is what we have to look forward to.

I think it’s impossible for Labour to lose mate, YouGov had them on 47% and Conservatives on just 20% tonight.

The average across all polls puts them 20% ahead.

The Dim Lemmings were on just 9% and behind Reform FFS!

If only the Libs had a charismatic leader like a young Blair or Cameron in his early days and a positive agenda with green energy right at the front and the forging of a new way forward with the Eu or a second referendum.

Instead they’ve got this wet patch Ed Davey falling off a Padel board and coming down a hill on a f king pushbike like Compo on Last Of The Summer Wine…..🤡🤡🫣😩😤

None of any of the parties are worth p I s s I n g on if they catch fire, every single one is lead by a Cnut.

It’s a joke that people think Starmer has the Far Left under control. What’s happened is that they’ve finally woken up and realised their best bet was a “Trojan Horse” agenda where they allow Starmer to get the party elected and then they burst out like the Alien from his stomach once power is achieved.

This could get really messy very quickly once Labour are in.

It’d be interesting to see where we are 5 years from now and what the opinion polls look like in 2029.

Jesus though, how badly we need someone of real vision and substance to appear from somewhere.

It’s interesting that Angela Rayner has stated that she can’t see any reason why Abbott should not stand as a Labour candidate at the next GE. No surprise there then as she is a Corbynite, as is Abbott. Here lies the problem, as once Labour get in, the Left will gradually infiltrate the party and we’ll be back to square one. Starmer needs to ‘grow a pair’ and distance himself from the far left. It certainly doesn’t help when the deputy leader is of that persuasion.

Whilst I agree with you about distancing himself from the left, I think he has made some steps towards it. Removing Corbyn for a start, clamping down on antisemitism within the party and suspending Abbot were all good things to have happened under his leadership so far.

I personally think he won't allow Abbott to stand at the next election.

For what its worth, I think Starmer is competent. Which is exactly what we need at the moment as a PM. Having said all of that, I still won't vote for them or him so...

So today on Starmer watch….

When asked whether Dianne Abbott will be allowed to stand out great and soon to be leader replied….

“We are going through a process blah, blah blah” and then in a moment of unbelievable irony he then says….

“You must remember…..she’s been a trailblazer for our party!”

Yes Kier…..everyone knows this which is why you’re being asked whether you’re kicking her out and why!!? 🤡🤡🤣🤣

F u c k sake, this bloke is a weak nonentity of a man, a human omeaba!

[kettering_baggie]

I’ve just watched Question Time (I know, I must be short of something to do) and Labour’s Wes Streeting was on; words fail me. No way could I vote for a party with such a legion of idiots. I’m hoping that there will be a Lord Buckethead standing here in Kettering!
