Starmer’s Labour keeps sex pest staffer in job advising front-bencher with slap on wrist

‘Final warning’ despite two investigations finding him guilty of groping intern. Starmer’s list of shame in failing to protect women grows longer

Keir Starmer: also sheltering at least 2 alleged sex pests on his front bench and ignored warnings of abuse of domestic violence victims by parliamentary staffer

Labour has let a sex pest senior staffer keep his job with a ‘final warning’, despite two separate investigation – the party’s own and an independent parliamentary probe – finding that he groped an intern twenty years his junior, after keeping the complainant waiting three years for an outcome. Politico has reported.

The victim, who says she feels ‘let down’ by the party, also said that sexual harassment is rife in Starmer’s party and that this had driven her determination to pursue the case.

Her account of wider abuse and the party’s cover-ups is backed up by evidence: Starmer is sheltering at least two alleged sex pests on his front bench and took no action against now-former MP Chris Matheson while Matheson was under investigation for ‘threatening’ sexual misconduct. Matheson ultimately resigned after being found guilty by a parliamentary panel.

And Starmer, along with his general secretary David Evans, covered up whistleblower Elaina Cohen’s repeated warnings that the lover and employee of right-wing MP Khalid Mahmood – then on Starmer’s front bench – was engaged in ‘sadistic’ and ‘criminal’ exploitation of domestic violence victims she was supposed to be helping.

Despite this record of shame, Starmer continues to boast that he will ‘champion’ protection for women and girls. The party said in response to this latest case that it ‘takes all ‘treats all complaints of sexual misconduct very seriously’.

Yeah, right.

  1. If this wasn’t Starmer that we are talking about, it would be unbelievable.
    BUT …
    It is Starmer.
    Enough said !

  2. In pre-postmodernist times the actions of Keir Starmer and all those involved in this action was recognised in legal terms as aiding and abetting.

    If only we had some competent lawyers in Parliament eh?

    1. The one key problematic with this list is number 6.

      Which Archibold has arse about face. In fact Archibold is actually arguing in favour of conversion therapy for children in the face of much evidence of criminal level child abuse in this regard. As well as arguing that children who otherwise are considered not sufficiently mature enough to marry, join the military, vote, buy solvents and sharp implements, or in some cases cross the road unsupervised are magically mature enough for such a drastic, dangerous and life threatening decision without reference to their parents.

      In that regard, Archibold is by any objective criteria little better than Woodcock, Janner, and a whole host of other abusers.

      1. Correct, Dave.

        Old enough and in their right mind to subject themselves to irreversible chemical (and physical) castration, but not old enough and in their right mind to know what they’re doing when they piss off to Syria to join islamic state.

      2. It did not seem that long ago that anyone who seriously wanted to be regarded as on the left or progressive drew a bloody great thick red line over chemical castration.

        Often citing the use of such barbaric practices on Alan Turing – who was instrumental in cracking the German Enigma Code which doubtless saved a great many lives directly and indirectly.

        Turing was chemically castrated for his homosexuality.

        Today’s sorry excuses now simply mimic what the Establishment elite did to Turing by converting many homosexual children in the same manner. In a sane world those responsible would be regarded and treated in the same way as Mengle and his Japanese equivalents.

      3. “As well as arguing that children who otherwise are considered not sufficiently mature enough to marry, join the military, vote, buy solvents and sharp implements, or in some cases cross the road unsupervised are magically mature enough for such a drastic, dangerous and life threatening decision without reference to their parents”.

        Excellent point, Dave.

  3. Has Lord sex pest John Woodcock been brought back into the LP Keir the pedo protector

  4. Lie easy in your beds.
    I read that a recent poll in the US asked people, inter alia, if they thought that the US should bomb Agrabar.
    30% said yes.
    Agrabar is the city in the Disney film Aladdin.
    I wonder if Biden, Nuland et al were in that 30%.

    1. The search engine for this poll dates it at 2015.

      With the 30% figure belonging to Republican’s at the time. The democrat figure was 19%.

      1. Wow. You are clearly adept at searching for such things.
        Thanks for finding it and pointing that out to me.
        It’s taken me a while to even find the article again. It doesn’t actually use the word “recent”, though it’s easy to conclude that’s what it means, as I did. Maybe it was written with that intention or maybe I just assumed too much.
        Mind you, average it out at 20% and it’s still not great and it is a possibility that people are not a great deal more knowledgeable now.

  5. Well it appears that the SUN has picked up on the sex pest – if I’ve
    got the right person that is as I got this from the headlines on TV.

    How long before they pick up on the rest ..?
