Mischievous grandad, retired, left of centre, looking forward to many years of progressive, competent, government.

Very carefully fails to mention protecting children from sexual abuse as one of his "observations" ... it would be BIBLICAL were any actual criminal prosecutions undertaken...

You are deliberately conflating Epstein with Starmer. There is no link between them. Maybe focus on the widespread corruption, gangsterism and sheer criminality including child sex abuse in your own pond.

If Keir Starmer is ousted, Labour could still win the next election. Here’s how that would work | Larry Elliott Once a PM is seen as hapless, there is no way back. But Labour has good plans – and with the political landscape fragmented, it could yet prevail, says Guardian columnist Larry Elliott

FFS - 15 years of corrupt and catastrophic Tory government are soon forgotten at The Guardian - Starmer / Labour is a busted flush, let's put in peril the overwhelming Labour landslide Starmer won which is actually, steadily doing good things.

πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί "In recent years to see the London Stock Exchange on its knees, to see good jobs lost, actually losing out in a way we could never have imagined to competitors in Europe."

🫠 Can anyone think of a major political event that made the British economy less attractive - maybe around 2016?

People trying their very hardest to make something of this story ... but no one is really interested in journalists being investigated for once, given the history here.

Brexit cost us far more than a 4% ( more lile 6%) reduction in GDP - it's been a political, economic and cultural disaster for the UK, especially the young. Show some honesty and stop pretending Brexit was anything other than a catastrohe for the UK.

Who better to have as Chancellor than Robert Jenrick, the man who helped a billionaire pornographer avoid Β£45m tax in exchange for a Β£10k donation.

You've hit the nail squarely on the head. Sad that the Guardian is happy to pay nepo "journalst" Adrian Chiles for his schoolboy pieces, but has mostly abandoned Labour.

Why is Starmer so unpopular bleats the Guardian whilst failing to investigate Farage in any meaningful way.

Ratcliffe suggests in his non apology an "Open Debate" about immigration to the UK. I would prefer an open debate about the rich moving abroad to dodge taxes losing the right to a UK passport, and disqualified from being a director of a UK company.

I will never understand how this man has accumulated the wealth he has... he's as thick as mince. He can't run a cycling team, can't run a football team, chooses to avoid UK taxes, and his politics are primeval.

Looks like he’s shitting himself in the street,probably.

Brewers have bled landlords dry for a generation - they have blighted the pub estate and now want taxpayers to make it all good again.

Has it ever occurred to anyone that a leader who takes the amount of personal shit this one does but still carries on with the job in the face of it has to be strong, not weak?
Starmer isn't a perfect PM, no one ever could be, but he's making a welcome difference to my country & he should stay.

Pretty good if you've young children, or are on minimum wage, or on a flaky employment contract... etc. I could go on.

Schoolgirl stuff. Mebbe post about some of the real life good things Labour in government have done in the last 18 months...

The concerted media campaign to disable Starmer, especially the role played by the captured @BBC, is appalling and an attempt to undermine what’s left of Britain’s democracy, especially seen in the context of the free ride they’ve given to traitorous Farage and Johnson.

What - you want to risk being in opposition for another 14 years with this virtue signalling? FFS he's just the leader the country and Labour need right now. Maybe you need to defect to a party that suits your brand politics better?

Just seen this. If only we could sign a player of his quality. ...Patrick Bamford is doing good things for us, and he seems a thoroughly good chap too.

Thanks for all your work unravelling that. And we've paid Β£4m for such a simplistic scheme...

Burnham is just so politically inept - he has opened several cans of worms wholly uneccesarily. Go full term as Mayor (as he promised) then look for a seat. He's just alienated swathes of Manchester voters for no reason than his own ambition.

Burnham should honour his pledge to see out his mayoral term. The only reason for chancing it now is his ambition - nothing to do with good for the party or country.
