Starmer is a complete non entity, the only way they’re winning an election with him in charge is if no one else shows up.

If you mean blustered, refused to answer the question and then lost his rag, then yes he did.
It's his style. Your man is lacking in anything positive at any time. Unelectable.

I never said Keir Starmer was my man but why should Starmer be positive? The very definition of his job is to lead the opposition against the government! He's there to hold the government to account and that's what he's doing. Maybe he could be positive if the Tories weren't giving away taxpayers money to their mates and relatives in dodgy contracts.

Johnson doesn't have a style. He bumbles and bluffs his way through everything and thinks rules that apply to everyone shouldn't apply to him. In no way could it be said Johnson put Starmer on his arse during those PMQs. He pointedly refused to answer Starmer's questions directly and was visibly rattled by the end.
If you get all wobbly-lipped about the opinion of Internet strangers, maybe it's time to take a bath with the toaster as you'll never amount to sh1t anyway.

I disagree. This wallpaper thing is all they've got. Pathetic.

Aye, Starmer seems to have finally managed to kill the Labour Party.

Wouldn’t be surprised if he was a Tory plant at this point :lol:

Its the silent majority you don't ever see spouting abuse on social media that dish out their justice in this way. Absolutely brilliant. :)

It would be nice if Labour took this as a lesson on dropping the left to appeal to centrists, probably not though :lol:

Yeah, I saw the data that Labour had slowly been losing support in Hartlepool for a long time.

A lot of people are fancying Andy Burnham for next leader. If anyone can stop the rot, it’s him.

He'd do a lot better than Starmer has, he might occasionally open his mouth for something other than agreeing with the tories :lol:

So where's the left vote going then ? Or is it that the Left always vote left but there just isn't the attraction in Labour to the floating voter ?

No. Giving it back to shouty cunts is what makes life worth living. Seeing them slowly die inside make my day. :lol:

Not sure about down south but a lot of the scottish left moved to the Greens and SNP years ago, now a lot of people I know are leaving the SNP for the greens too.

Corbyn did good work bringing a lot of left wing voters back towards the labour party. I thought about voting for them.

Labour can't appeal to a socialist base and centre right floating voters, they need to pick a side.
