Yet again ‘Labour’ leadership unwilling to face anger of voters

Keir Starmer and Shadow Home Secretary David Lammy appear to be running scared yet again of the anger of protesters demanding a halt to Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
The pair were due to appear in Tottenham this afternoon for a policy announcement, but Skwawkbox understands that the press conference has now been cancelled after details of the venue and meeting time leaked and human rights activists planned to gather at the event to protest at Starmer’s support for Israel’s mass murder of Palestinian civilians.
The cancellation is one of a number of events abandoned by Labour rather than face the outrage of those who simply want an end to the slaughter. Keir Starmer has still not even mentioned the International Court of Justice findings against Israel in the genocide case brought by South Africa, such is his inability to justify his stance or face the reality of Israel’s war crimes, though he has used his social media to post repeatedly about business and football.

Just goes to show yet again that stahmer and his outfit are utterly unelectable. We need a government that works for all ourr benefit not a posse that is throwing us under a bus in order for them to profit .
I can see Labour’s poll lead evaporating before election day.
Nobody wants an out-and-out wimp running the country!
The Law of the Land says we cannot sell arms to states who commit Genocide, in fact instead of getting g to fight Russia for a weak, that’s roughly how long we would last, we need to prepare to provide Peacekeeping forces to the UN to send to Gaza
They’d better get used to it, protest, heckling and interventions is their new normal, wherever they go.
As CPS he should be used to letting monsters get away with attrosaties
ALL smarmerite MPs should face the same malcontent, wherever and whenever they’re scheduled at events.
And not exclusively on Gaza. There’s an entire myriad of domestic issues where they need reminding just who they’re supposed to represent.
The observation contained here……
https://steelcityscribblings.uk/wp/2024/02/05/comfort-bombing-a-phrase-for-our-times/
….succinctly describes the position of those who support the exceptionalism of so called ‘Western values’ currently on display:
“Comfort bombing: the delivery of death to distant peoples for the sole purpose of saving the faces of entitled sociopaths bereft of ideas but immune from the consequences.”
In the past there was some pretence and lip service paid to the basic laws of finance, then the Banks and thei Oligarchs decided they were to big to fail
Israel is another example of zero consequences
Whether its Trillions being siphoned off from we the people and our children or Jews committing Genocide, at some stage we pray moral hazard and creative destruction will wreak havoc with these fuckers
We all know that both Starmer and Lammy are war mongering Zionists ( without qualification) and are “Friends” of Israel, a state currently being tried by the International Court of Justice for genocide. Now we know that they are gutless too.
They just can’t face ordinary decent people who wish to protest about their vile “friendship” with those who have killed over 25000 innocent people including little children , who refuse to call for a ceasefire as their ” friends” want to keep on killing and who have asserted Israels right to withhold water and energy (a war crime) from unarmed Palestinian civilians under daily attacks by Starmer’s and Lammy’s savage “friends” backed to the hilt with money and weapons by the savages in chief , the USA.
Shame on Starmer and Lammy and every other amoral person who openly declares friendship with the rogue state of Israel . I say amoral because only somebody with no moral compass would support those engaged in the wholesale slaughter of innocent people.
Starmer and the rest of the Friends of Israel can expect to be met with protests wherever they show their faces . They are a disgrace.
It’s not only Muslim voters who are revolted by the likes of Starmer, Lammy and all the “Friends of Israel”.
All humanitarian people are disgusted by their support for mass murder.
