Lynch doesn’t have to agree with Starmer or his Labour Party. But at least he’s realistic. Puts him way ahead of a lot of the far left...

That headline is incredibly misleading.

“I support getting rid of this Government and I’m a realist – the only government we’re going to get as an alternative will be led by Keir Starmer, so people have to deal with that, people have got to grow up a bit in some senses..."

He’s not saying he supports Keith, just that people have to accept it.

Why are people using Keith to be disrespectful towards Starmer, when his middle name is literally Rodney? Talk about missing an open goal...

Where did the Keith thing come from in the first place?

 

[varnish]

Probably an autocorrect typo from Kier. The guys a duplicitous [Poor language removed] anyway.

MP Chris Bryant on channel 4 reminding the country of a fact from 1835 re 'James and John'. What an appalling story.

'Kin sell out.


Said it for a while, the problem for a breakout more left leaning party is cajoling the unions away if they think Labour are the best bet for influence.

I actually do think we need that, btw. The Tories have gone full right wing, Labour pretty much sit in the centre right position and there's little in the way of a viable centre left party (the greens just get ignored).

It's a lot easier saying things like this when you know who isn't around stalking the prairie.
