Come on #Starmer, this is the kind of endorsement you’ve been working towards for months now and you really pushed for it this past week…you should feel so proud that all your hard work to cozy up to a fascist hellbent on destroying democracy, expanding their territory, defunding sciences, trashing the environment and only interested in furthering the rights of white, straight, male tech bros has paid off.

If #Reeve’s attempts to currie favour with #Trump after her trip to #Davos to meet with the non-secret members of the illuminati are anything to go by, it will be a statement of epic revisionist proportions…I hope I’m proved wrong:

It will be with metropolitan #Labour supporters and a fair chunk of those that lent him their vote in places like rural #Norfolk to achieve a large but puddle deep on the ground majority…sadly #Starmer still thinks he’s re-playing #Brexit. He only talks to Leavers, hence his opinion pieces only ever appearing in the Daily Mail or Sun.

it's an endorsement he deserves.
This will have consequences. I saw an article saying Trump's position will push the UK closer to the EU. I'm not so sure, the establishment seem to be falling over themselves to remind Trump of the 'special relationship'. The BBC reporting the government are requesting the monarchy invite him to a state banquet. Trump loves this sort of thing and the only reason he'll keep ties with the UK, that and his golf course.

#Starmer has stubbornly shut down debate on what the real outcomes of Brexit have been for years. Claims of keeping his ‘powder dry’ no longer wash. Any appeasement of Trump in the coming days and weeks will be catastrophic for our relations with the EU.

As you probably know from previous posts, my Labour MP is Clive Lewis. He’s definitely on the left of the party. Definitely gets the need to address climate breakdown. And yet he was boasting yesterday about what he said in Parliament in favour of the climate and nature bill (proposed by Lib Dems) while also claiming backing down to have achieved the big concessions of being ‘consulted’ when it comes to future Labour climate legislation was a win. Not buying it Clive!

Given that Labour look like they're going to get destroyed in the next general election, surely it would make sense ahead of time, and to lessen the damage to them, to radically change the electoral system. Unless, of course, Labour are more than happy to play their part as a placeholder government and then, when the time comes, hand over the keys to the UK to fascists, i.e. Reform, and their oligarch controllers
