Yet again, the more people see of him, the less they like
The public’s view of Keir Starmer has plummeted even further since he became prime minister, according to the latest polling from Opinium. According to its research, his ‘net approval’ has fallen by forty-nine points since he got the keys of Number 10 thanks to the fascist Reform ‘party’:
Starmer got into power, because Reform cannibalised the Tory vote in ninety-eight seats and gifted wins to Starmer’s Labour, despite getting significantly fewer votes than Corbyn’s party received in the ‘disaster’ of 2019 – and far fewer than in 2017.
But as Skwawkbox has frequently pointed out ever since he got into the Labour leadership seat, the more the public see of Starmer the less they like him. Starmer has largely tried to hide during his recent donor scandals, sending lackeys out to defend him instead, but the reality is there’s nowhere for him to hide now, so the public is seeing more of him than ever – and the results can be seen in his disastrous polling and Labour’s.
The arrogance and corporate-lackeyism of his behaviour since getting into power, keeping poor children in deep poverty and hunger, condemning thousands of pensioners to die of cold each winter and now heaping debt on struggling students by increasing tuition fees – not to mention his complicity in Israel’s genocide and warmongering – only compound the issue.

he’s probably on one of his free-trips to Davos, Toffee.

The tosser’s on other threads (and posting ambiguously) but not THIS one. The total opposite of his pre-election stance, where foreign policy apoeared not to be within his remit, but the vehement defence of keef was.
No explanation forthcoming.
…As there’s none required.
And, you know when he accepted that gift of accommodation, it was all his son’s fault.
Yeah, why did he have to sit GCSEs at a time when they were mostly over……… I always believed that young people revise with friends, go to the library, might have support from teachers, raid the fridge, etc. But not moving into someone elses house.
Today’s Labour Party imitates National Labour of the 1930s: nation first, party second; sound money and fiscal discipline. But National Labour supporters were expelled! The Labour Party has been captured in a constitutional coup.
MacDonald claimed that every duchess would want to kiss him; today Starmer calls in gifts galore.v
In 1931 unemployed millions had their benefits cut (though prices were falling); today pensioners and children are subject to cuts in an era of rising prices.
Shameless and shameful.
still some way to go!!
Well done to VIPS (Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity) for this memo which examines the conflict in the Ukraine:
Warning to Labour Party members: Don’t Let Starmer see you reading it.

Or Paul Mason, who ignores the carnage in Palestine and Lebanon.
Two tier, freebie gear, pushing fear, not welcome for beer, freezing the old dear, Kier
Seems outragiously high, when all is considered.
