Current Affairs The Labour Party

How? Most people, most, would mortgage to what they could afford but have no control over the rate rises, even with a buffer, a lot are as 'maxed out' as it is.

Others have had no real alternative to 'aspire' (remember that buzzword?), than to over reach on their financial capabilities. To say 'plan for it' is disingenuous and reeks of arrogant, uninformed snobbery.

Unfortunately most people would say look at me, I’ve got a massive house and turn me knickers inside out 3 times a week

He went and worked for Change UK, a real shadow Tory by the looks of it.

One of the safest Tory seats in the land with Rishi the MP and Hague before that.

Worked a bit in Richmond and people would mindlessly vote Tory just because that was the norm. Probably one of the least ethnically diverse places I’ve ever visited as well so dunno what their issue is with immigration.

I see they've got rid of the "campaigning against the Labour Party means expulsion" bit of the rulebook then; Loach will be made up.

"Keir Starmer announced Berger’s new role at the Jewish Labour Movement (JLM) conference, as he assured members he would “never let antisemitism sneak back into the Labour party undercover”.

"He told the conference: “I see no greater cause in my leadership than this. This is my role.”"

Really? That's your greatest cause? I mean, antisemitism is grim and nobody in their right mind wants to see it flourish anywhere, if indeed it ever did within the Labour party beyond a small proportion of scumbags, but, REALLY? Your greatest cause? Have a word.

Airstrikes aren't military action, according to Starmer. Only troops on the ground count.

On odious creature

Never met her, but she certainly comes across like that - one of the bright young things of yesteryear, who never achieved anything beyond winning a safe seat and managing to scupper three parties electoral chances.

Those paratroopers used to block local candidates. Met her couple of times, like one of Mandelson's 'children'.

Not saying the article makes him look that much better but that is a very shady reading of what he said in general. This is the article in full

I talked to Keir Starmer for three months: this is what I learned

ITV’s deputy political editor had exclusive access to the Labour leader for a TV profile to be aired this week. Is he fit to be Britain’s next PM?
