The UK: The Keir Starmer years - RESIGNED

[Lucille]

But you missed out that you were chased by a BEAR.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I think my favourite bit is the TIRED NOD at the very end as the interview is wrapped up

 

[Lucille]

I could listen to her read a shopping list in her preposterously middle class accent.

 

[Jark]

Em was not about to go on TV without making sure her arse is COVERED.

 

[Jark]

how long until she's saying the PM must go?

 

[PercyPig]

Developed Vetting is right old nosey down memory lane

“You’ve mentioned you visit these porn sites; blakemason, randyblue and hardbritlands. Are you gay?”

 

[Lucille]

She’s of retirement age, got fucked over by him after the last election, and is definitely losing her seat in 2 years, can you please just fulfill my gay needs and go on a 2 year media tour slagging the odious cunt off then retire to your palatial Islington townhome in wealth and peace (occasionally popping out to DJ at the RVT)

 

[GNL]

But you missed out that you were chased by a BEAR.

"And is the bear Keir Starmer?"

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Fighting the urge to rename the thread

 

[Jark]

"Kerr Stymer" is fabulous. is that actually supernanny? what's she doing now?

 

[Jark]

and what was the message?

 

[jivafox]

Something about raising kids

 

[Jark]

oh bless her. I'm obsessed with her HAIR

 

[Shoat]

I feel a little sad for her that her message will be ignored in favour of "Supernanny Jo Frost Stuns Fans With Unrecognisable New Look" headlines

I agree that Sir Kerr is entirely to blame for TikTok

 

[jyxz]

RITE OF PASSAGE.

Silly cow.

 

[Jark]

a forced resignation that seems unlikely to be enough

Foreign Office’s top civil servant Olly Robbins forced out over Mandelson vetting row

Keir Starmer understood to have lost confidence in official over decision to override security vetting failure

[GNL]

I don't believe a civil servant independently made that call, but they must have felt confident there wasn't a paper trail to say otherwise.

 

[Agneeta]

Not really sure where to put this. This is the latest in a series of supposed attacks against Israeli and Iranian targets in the UK (I assume across Europe too). The latest suggestion is that drones containing dangerous substances were found in Kensington Gardens near the Israeli Embassy.

BBC News - Kensington Gardens shut as police 'assess items'

Kensington Gardens shut as police 'assess discarded items'

It comes after a video is shared in which a group claims to have targeted the nearby Embassy of Israel.

[ZenGiraffe]

Paid adverts? To stop a leadership challenge!?

Surely that's the height of desperation

 

[GNL]

No 10 knew Mandelson failed security vetting seven months ago

The Independent put revelations that Peter Mandelson had failed MI6 vetting for the US ambassador role to Downing Street in September – but a ‘furious’ Sir Keir insists he did not know until this week

www.independent.co.uk

Nobody ever tells Keir anything

 

[Jark]

crunch week ahead it seems

Judgment day as Starmer faces Commons showdown over Mandelson scandal

Prime minister to deliver high-stakes statement to MPs over vetting controversy that has put his position in peril

does he survive it?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

 

[Shoat]

Oh maybe he will EXECUTE Wes Streeting onscreen

 

[GNL]

Sources say he plans to hit a senior civil servant with a metal fold-up chair.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Oh maybe he will EXECUTE Wes Streeting onscreen

WE CAN HOPE!

 

[Lucille]

Ooooh she’s MAD AS HELL!

 

[Shoat]

He's just going to appear looking a bit WEARY isn't he

 

[Lucille]

We are going to see some real ACTING!

 

[Shoat]

A big shock that Sirkeir did indeed serve weary instead of ANGRY

A fairly useless speech that amounted to;

"I apologise and take full responsibility....
...
...Now let me tell you in detail why it's actually the fault of my evil advisors."

 

[Lucille]

Get her Diane!

 

[GNL]

Wow, she didn't even get a RIGHT HONOURABLE. She got him.

 

[Suomi]

I actually think he’s done a good job standing up to Trump so I’m not on board with this at this stage

 

[Jark]

not on board with... what?

 

[big ron]

THIS

 

[GNL]

at this stage

 

[Shoat]

I actually think he’s done a good job standing up to Trump so I’m not on board with this at this stage

As terribly as he's handling the Mandelson shit, I agree

Trump is a far more CRITICAL issue right now, and do we really want to leave that to a simpering Streeting?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

No, but imagine BIG ANG in the white house

 

[Shoat]

I think we're kidding ourselves that she'd win a contest

As much as her CLUBBING in Washington would be fun and all

 

[ZenGiraffe]

I think we're kidding ourselves that she'd win a contest

As much as her CLUBBING in Washington would be fun and all

The membership won't vote for Streeting though, the only person who would beat her is Burnham, and he's not eligible!

 

[funky]

If it's not Starmer being hounded by the press and the Great British Public, it would just be someone else in charge of Labour. They're not trying to get rid of Starmer, they're just trying to weaken the government.

I really don't want to play revolving door leaders all over again. If he does something as bad as Johnson, or Cameron, or Truss, then maybe we'll talk.
